Osprey Packs Atmos 50 Backpack - 2800-3200cu in
Broad Shoulders beware

I pride myself on being the most demanding of consumers. I think it helps others stay informed in an age where you cant always try things on.
I find the sizing does not fit broad shoulders well, mostly because some of the plastic hardware would rest on my back when I carried the pack.
Aside from that, the mesh panel allows great ventilation, but at a substantial cost in usable volume. The main compartment looks like a crescent shape when viewed from the side, tough for your longer items. Additionally, I shouldn't have to move up to the atmos 65 (which i liked less) in order to get a bottom zipper.
