Pack looks great and appears well made. loaded her up with about 18 lbs on 3 separate occasions and straps dug in pretty good.couldn't get the weight to shift to her hips properly, was uncomfortable after 1 mile. my wife put up with it for 5. thought maybe it just needed some adjusting. we tried everything. decided to return it and give the osprey aura a shot. slightly heavier but may carry a load better with it's aluminum frame. can only recommend this pack for light loads maybe up to 15lbs.
