From Backcountry.com:
"The Marmot Walkabout Lumbar Pack just as easily gets your basics to the local crag or daytrips around SE Asia. A midsize all-purpose storage space designed for comfort, this pack rides smoothly even over a harness. Marmot's BioSpan adjustable suspension system ensures a comfy fit for myriad body sizes. The sunburst bungee wheel allows quick stashing and retrieving of layers as your body temp fluctuates and two Nalgene-sized water bottle pockets keep hydration at hand while you're on the move. Detach the breathable waist belt to use the pack like a shoulder bag (removable shoulder strap included). Sturdy Broken Twill Nylon hangs tough while bushwhacking in the elements. Engineered for lightweight construction without sacrificing key features."

"Mike, can I have yours then, please? My sister and I fight over mine. It has been patched 3 times and has traveled with me ever since the day I bought it. It is the perfect size for lunch, a sweater and a book plus first aid and water bottles. Smaller pockets for lip balm, keys, wallet etc."

"Don't waste your time with this pack. I rec'd one as a gift and it just collects dust. The design makes no sense at all - with only the lumbar strap it hangs off your hips, with only the shoulder strap it is impossible to walk or hike with, and with both straps it's uncomforable and bulky."
