The color looks sharp too, felt like the prettiest girl at the ball with this thing on.\r\n\r\nHowever, the waist band needs a bit of help. The cushion right in the back rubs a bit and created abrasion. This might have been because the belt is too big for me and can't quite get narrow enough. Sure i'm a skinny guy, but I wear 31in pants and that can't be totally unique for backpackers.

It was not a catastrophic failure, however, it made for a slightly uncomfortable pack ride for a few more days. \r\n\r\nWith that being said, Kelty immediately responded to my request for warranty service and emailed me a pre-paid packing label with detailed instructions on how to send this pack in for repair. \r\n\r\nAt first, I was surprised by the repair in lieu of replacement.

I would suggest looking for a pack that has a bit more adjustment options for the brain or buying the Asher 60 instead of 55, I wish I would have purchased the 60 instead of 55.
