First I have to say I got this rucksack in the January sales and it was 'used', so I got it at a really good price.
I'm not sure what 'used' means in this instance, the rucksack appearing to be brand new, still having the moisture absorption crystal sachets in side pockets and no evidence of any use in the field whatsoever, so I'm happy there.
As with many other reviewers, the design is fantastic, lots of external pockets for kit one might wish to have access to on an ongoing basis, without having to delve into the main compartment of the sack, a feature I really value.
The fit and ability to adjust fit is excellent, my back isn't so brilliant, so the comfort of fit is a really important aspect of design for me. I have read reviews that have questioned the back height adjustment, so I will monitor this.
I've chosen the 55 liter rucksack quite deliberately, a little secret (don't tell anyone) if you have a big rucksack (120 liter monster for e.g.) do you know what you will do with it? well you'll fill it! Better to have a smaller rucksack and take only what's necessary, one's back will agree! So all those on Helvellyn with monster rucksacks (not doing army exercises in Scandinavia snow) take note! Get smaller rucksacks and leave the solar powered foot spa, the telescopic mobile phone signal booster mast and the myriad other 'useful' items at home, as I said before your back will agree. So a 55 liter rucksack is perfectly adequate for my purposes.
I'm happy with this purchase a well designed rucksack.
