Padded hipbelt for GG Virga

may be this is gonna be too obvious but you said "anything" :) so here goes. I added a padded hipbelt to a GG Virga too. It was an old belt from another (a ULA) pack and I believe a removable one. I just removed the webbing parts from the belt and threaded the Virga one around the padding and through the channel between it and the belt pockets. It worked just fine like this but later I added matching velcro patches on belt and pack so the belt doesn't fall when I take the pack off.

Maybe this pic is useful:

It's still removable.

I'd make your padded belt so you can thread the Virga webbing belt through it.

My fiancee sewed one up for me. The foam padding is only about 1/8" or 3/16" thick by 4" wide. We made it just long enough to where my hip bones are protected from the webbing belt. Its removable. I would take a picture but sadly my camera died a few months back :(

I realize it won't actually take any weight off my shoulder straps but it feels alot more comfortable on my boney hips. With the little padding that is has it only adds a negligible amount of weight. Maybe a ounce or two.

Some Velcro would be great. Stick or sew on?
