Deuter Futura 28 Backpack - 1700cu in
Not well balanced...

I sent it back as the back was too curved and it felt as though all the weight was on my waist. I constantly felt as if the pack was leaning back no matter how I adjusted it. I do have the Deuter Race X Air and love it, but wanted something bigger. I did like the rest of the design of the pack; pocket placement/organization, zippers, and the side compression straps are awesome as you can cinch them up and make this pack flat as a pancake, or open 'em up and haul a couple of days worth of clothes.
