From Backcountry.com:
"With its incredibly breathable AirScape suspension, the Osprey Women's Ariel 55 Backpack is perfect for carrying big loads in hot weather. Weighing only 3lb 11oz (small), this supportive pack has a back panel that's entire mesh, giving it ventilation that standard packs cannot match. Welded front and side pockets provide easy access to items on the go, and external sleeping pad straps let you overload this bag when it's time to extend your trip past three days. The IsoForm CM harness and hip-belt can be molded by authorized dealer for a perfect fit, eliminating pressure points and dead spots for a comfortable carry unlike any you've ever experienced."

From Altrec Outdoors:
"Women looking for a versatile pack for weekend trips, canyoneering, or extended trips with a go-light emphasis will certainly appreciate the Osprey Ariel 55 backpack. A trimmer version of its big sister, the Ariel 65, this backpack offers the same great harness / suspension system but in a smaller version. If you're budget conscious about your pack purchase, you don't have to settle for a generic fit. The editors at Backpacker magazine would agree, as they tagged the Ariel 65 (the 55's big sister) a Best Buy in their 2006 Gear Guide. The Osprey Ariel 55 women's backpack features the IsoForm custom moldable hipbelt that uses heat to achieve a precise fit. These hipbelts come in four women's specific sizes. Furthermore, the Isoform shoulder harness is available in four sizes, also contoured to fit women best. The pack to body surface of both the hipbelt and shoulder harness are entirely seamless, reducing the chance of pressure points developing. Next, the AirScape suspension, a carefully assembled sandwich consisting of an internal framesheet with single aluminum stay, ventilated rubber foam backpanel, and peripheral 7075 AL rods evenly transfers the weight to the hipbelt and shoulder harness for a terrific carry. The Osprey Ariel 55 backpack offers a number of useful features. A highlight is the two-way stretch woven front pocket, great for stowing almost any piece of camping equipment imaginable."
