Update: after using this bag for a couple of months and every day around Italy for 10 days I now love this bag! I don't notice any pressure from the straps anymore after usage. Maybe there was a breaking in period? But there are a lot of things I am just so used to now. I love the magnetic chest clasp, etc. ( I have removed the hip belt.)Old review: This is undeniably a high quality bag. I read lots of reviews before hand on this before ordering it. It fulfils everything the reviews said about it for me... except for me the straps on the harness system have this piping on them and when I have fulled loaded the bag up to about a 10kg total weight the straps start digging in and are not as comfortable as my previous backpack. Still the bag keeps it's shape, it looks great, I also think it will last a very long time and looks to be a really quality bag. Note other reviews didn't find this problem with the straps so perhaps it is just my body shape. I am debating whether to return it or not due to this. I also got a Mark Ryden backpack to compare this against and that bag is definitely made of cheaper materials will not hold up as well etc, but when loaded is strangely more comfortable to wear. (Also my original Willow Design backpack is more comfortable than the Hemiplanet.)New comments: There are still a few things to improve like they could have a way to lock the quick grab pouch zipper, etc. (I use Nite Ize S-Biner MicroLock as my zipper locks and I can lock the main zippers together but not the quick grab pouch or the side zip pouch.) Also there could be a dedicated pocket for an AirTag like the TravelPack 3 from Aer) Still I love this bag now!
