Has anyone handled the following pack in person?
http://www.rei.com/product/809163
It used to be called the REI zip pack. I want to know if this year REI is using 3D padded mesh on their shoulder harness, or just thin mesh (like the flash 18, and when the pack was still the "zip" )
Can't really tell from the pics. Thanks!
Darn,
I was just at REI today. I am sorry to note that I did not look at that particular pack.
However, I pulled the image off the REI site and tweaked some image levels in Photoshop so that perhaps you can get a better idea. The image below seems to support the idea of padded shoulder straps.
I own the Flash 18 and compared the straps to the image above.
The Flash's straps do seem to be different from the Travel Pack, thinner and without the mesh on the inside of the strap.
I own the previous model of this pack and the straps were basicaly a thin mesh. The straps on this new model definitely look padded.
