Super Comfy

This is my first internal frame pack, and I certainly love it for the comfort. It feels like a dream. I could tell when I tried it on at the store that it belonged on my back. The lumbar pack is very comfortable. Zippers and material are high quality. Buckles seem a little chinsy, but have held up fine so far. As others have said, the suspension is great.
BUT, the water bottle pockets are ABSURD. They are super tiny, anything smaller than a deck of cards is guaranteed to fall out of them. (very slight exaggeration) I am going to modify them so they work, but it is definitely a design flaw. Didn't anyone else notice this?
In general, love it. big enough for week long trips. I do wish it had better straps to tie stuff on the outside. Once again though, thats an easy mod to make.
