Review: Amazing pack, tricky sizing. - Fabulous pack. So light. The sizing is tricky. My torso is 18” (google how to measure for a hiking pack) but I’m a 00. I ordered a small and although the circumference was good, the hip belt sat above my hip bones. Like not touching. I sent this back and ordered the women’s facet version in a medium and it fits me PERFECT. a properly fitting pack changes everything. Make sure it’s perfect or you will be MISERABLE.
Review: Great backpack with only minor issues - Excellent backpack. Very nearly perfect as a light weight but comfortable backpack. Would’ve liked a stretchier front pocket and a waterproof fabric but other than that I can’t complain.
