Great pack!
This pack is by far the most comfortable pack I have ever worn. I am a thick guy and this is the only lightweight pack I could find to fit my chest and midsection. I love everything about it and the only thing I would suggest to the folks at Gregory is for a watter bottle pocket. It has none but I use a bladder mostly so it's not an issue for me. I would and have recommended it to my friends.
