Bought the pack to replace a Vortex pack that had worn out from Serious abuse over the last 10 years. I also have a BD pack (black diamond) similar story. This Osprey pack is one trip old, One single trip to Redrocks, NV. for some climbing and b/c it is a new pack I was babying the piece of crap and still it shows a lot of wear. The material can't handle any type of abrasion....anywhere, heaven forbid the bottom of the pack. The bottom shows serious wear...what I would expect if I had used the pack for five season in yosemite.
Other notable problem is I ordered a large, I am 5'9 165 lbs and very average. The shoulder straps are to narrow for my neck. and awkward. If hiking hard, it kinda feels like someone has a string around my neck cutting off circulation to my juglar's.
Dont get this pack unless it is free and you can sell it to a sucker and buy a real pack.
