Not my favorite

I love the idea of the pack and the layout, but the biggest downfall for me was the waist belt. I could not get a comfortable fit, to the point I had to wear a stiff belt in order to keep the bottom of the waist belt from digging into my hips and leaving me sore. I would recommend the MRK series, Diablo VT or Sacrifice LS just on comfort of the waist belt in my opinion.
