Low Alpine Sting arrived

[MrEd]

Will take photos of mine tomorrow for you

thanks mate, now you mentioned it I did tighten them later. I got quite used to the pack now. I think the difference was the slightly more comfortable straps on the vulcan, which was more a case of feeling different. I do value the 1kg less weight of this one. Wont bother with the rocket/PLCE packs either, it all fits in the main body. Thanks again fellas,.

no worries, do you still want photos of me wearing mine?

I'd still value a look certainly Mr Ed. always worth knowing the right way to wear gear exmil gear. My background in the Australian army doesnt help much as we saw Alice packs and two types of short back pack designed to rest on hip webbing and some were atrocious especially for taller blokes. Years later was introduced to hip belt designs like the Euro armies seem to prefer and never looked back..

Last photo at the risk of banging on too much. The padded section of the straps terminate around my armpit level or so it seems. Is that how it sits for you as well Mr Ed? They are shorter and less padding than I am used to but Im assuming this is how this pack functions and doesnt seem to cause any dramas so far, I have the back extended to maximum btw.

Nah mine sit about half an inch into my armpit of that makes sense, I have my pack two off the max length (I am 6ft 1 and 95kg, 44’ chest)

Sorry haven’t had a chance to sort ohotos today, hopefully tomorrow

@mickbr sorry it took ages but this is how mine rides on me. This had about 17kg in it, including water. For reference I am 6ft 2 and 97kg so not small,
