This is quite a large pack (at least for me) and is my first expedition size pack. The pack rode extremely comfortably and after a short while I barely noticied the ~40 pounds I was carrying with it. The quality of the materials and the workmanship are all first rate and quite noticable in even the smallest details such as the large front pocket's oversize zipper.

The foam that the shoulder pads and hip belt is also extremly confortable and I would venture to say somewhat breathable since you barely notice how clammy it is (from absorbing sweat) after you put the pack back on (even in the summer).

Overall this is an outstanding pack especially when you consider it costs less than a comparable Dana or North Face.
