Gotta be the foam...

Ranked #232 - Weeklong Packs (Over 4500 cu in)

An incredible multi use backpack. As to comfort level....Wow! I have owned 4 different brands and this is way above any modern day pack on the market. Just got off a trip to wind rivers, 8th trip with pack 2nd with over 50#s, and the 58# pack felt like 25 pounds. Eight miles in and no fatigue at all and a comfort level at the hips that almost seems as though there is an anti gravity belt. A little on the heavy side but this is an indicator of the well built and solid foundation of this pack.
