Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

The ripcord is comfortable and the stitching/construction seems good. The shoulder straps are sufficiently padded for day use and comfortable for hikes up to 10 hours.

Packaging/appearance

Only drawback is the cleaning of the the water pouch

The packaging says there is a tube port on the left and right strap but on the one i received there was only one on the left strap

Competitiveness

Wore this during a spartan beast in vermont for the world championships in 2012

Much less expensive than the other brand

Chest and waist straps are a little short for a 250lb
