Pack recommendations for Female

Remind her that it will be on her back and she won't have to look at it :)

I don't think we can really help without knowing what colors she likes…
Some females like pinks and purples, others greens and browns and some even like pink and brown :-0
Give us a little more info here : )

Take her to REI. Have her try on packs.

Maybe she will change her mind about colors once she feels the difference between a well-fitting pack and and ill-fitting one.

She's been outfitted in all Arcteryx outerwear so far. She likes the Cobalt blue. She's mixing that with black. She does like purple as well.

As far as taking her to REI, not an option. They live hours away from the closest one. The only outdoor store nearby carries very little variety. Sad really.

I would look into Deuter packs; nice colors, women specific fit, light-ish.

It's funny that you brought that up. Relatively new company from what I understand. Pretty neat though. I looked at one while at REI the other day. Very adjustable. I sent him a link for the ACT Zero 45 + 15 SL. I hope she likes green.

Not that new…founded in 1898. No, it's not a typo, 1898. I think their presence on this continent might be recent.
I bought my daughter a Deuter pack and it has worked quite well for her. The greens they have are very nice.

Wow. I had no clue. Some guy at REI didn't know what he was talking about… that or I misunderstood. Very possible.

Looks like it's going to be the GG Crown VC Ki with a "pretty" pack cover. LOL

My job here is done. Thanks all.

This thread is funny! You guys don't understand how some women think and you definitely did not pay attention to Kat's posts :)

BTW, my wife loves her Deuter pack and it is color coordinated to her outfit. And that is the only way I could get her to use a pack at all.

At least you got it figured out Nick.
