I agree with the assessment of the build on this pack--it is bulletproof, solid and well-made. It isdescribed as the "ultimate whitetail hunter's" pack, but I have to say that I find the arrangement of pockets less than optimum. Because the pack is so tough the materials are inflexible so whatever you can fit into the pockets is pretty limited. The "no spill" netting, especially on the longer side pockets, getscaught inthe zippers, everytime. The waist pockets on the sides are also small and too far back to get at easily. There is a small pocket on the bottom of the pack which is useless for most things except maybe alicense or some other thin and flat items. All in all, I give it a 10 for quality, and about a 3 for design. I also don't like the red (?) metal stretcher in the back--pack feels as if it is sitting out and away from my body. Pricey, too. Bianchi used to make some great daypacks--wonder what happened to them?
