I was originally looking at The North Face Jemma pack, but after some thought, I decided something bigger like the Borealis might be better. I do, however, have a couple questions. The Jemma is made specifically for women, so if I go with the Borealis or the Recon, will the difference in comfort be significant for a 5'4" person? Also, does the Borealis have that back saver technology, and how much difference does that make in comfort?
