It is important that you have your pack fit properly. I can’t stress this enough to anyone. If you do buy a pack online (bad idea) make sure you try it on and have someone who knows the ins and outs of packs to fit you. Mr. Hemphill’s review of this pack should be completely disregarded and is merely in ignorance; therefore we will forgive him for saying such things about a piece of pack art.

I work at Great Outdoor Provision Company in NC and I have been fitting people with Osprey and Gregory packs for two years now. What most people don't understand is that when purchasing a pack you must have a pack expert measure the length of your spine. They must also take measurements for your hip belt and shoulder straps. If the sales rep doesn’t do this and essentially “tweak” the pack to the customer then you will have the problems Mr. Hemphill had.

This pack also has a molded hip belt…it really helps if get this hip belt molded. This can be done at any authorized Osprey Dealer. Another note: not all packs fit all people. While Ospreys fit most people they don’t fit all. If I can’t get someone in am Osprey I can usually get them in a Gregory. My assumption would be that Mr. Hemphill was not properly fitted for this pack. I have had customers hike the AT with this one with no problem. GET IT FIT RIGHT!!! Same thing does for boots.
