I returned this because of the shoulder straps.I planned to use this pack in very hot climates wearing tank tops and sleeveless shirts, and the moisture-wicking mesh shoulder straps proved too rough on my skin with 15lbs of weight in the pack.After taking it on and off a few times to adjust, my shoulders and arms were red and raw. Also, I didn't like the velcro system for adjusting the back panel position.With full weight, the pack seemed unstable and the velcro kept moving around.Pluses are built in rain cover, easy access to main compartment, and ability to lock at a central point.I'd recommend this pack if you'll be carrying less than 15 pounds.

Product Description:
Specifically designed to fit a woman's body--with security, convenience, and comfort features throughout--the Eagle Creek Truist 65L women's backpack is a terrific companion for longer trips and multi-activity adventures. The Truist 65L--Eagle Creek's largest women's-specific trekking and travel pack--is equipped with the company's X-ACT Women's Adjustable Suspension system, which includes a removable X-frame made with HDPE frame sheet and pre-curved, aircraft-grade aluminum stays. As a result, the frame is sturdy yet supportive, especially when teamed with the ergonomically contoured shoulder straps, the adjustable sternum strap, and pulley-assist hip belt, which is engineered specifically for a woman's hip shape. The X-ACT system also includes a Micro-Adjust apparatus that customizes the torso length, helping ensure that the pack transfers the load evenly across the body. In addition, the Truist 65L's 5,475-cubic-inch interior (when expanded) is easy to pack, with a full front panel, a hybrid zippered and drawstring top, and a zippered bottom compartment with an internal stowaway divider. Perhaps the handiest feature, however, is the included Modular Travel Pouch. Designed to fit comfortably on the lumbar, the front, or the back, the pouch detaches easily so you can carry your essential items on small day trips and leave the rest of your gear at the hostel. The pouch includes such additional features as an exterior bungee that functions as an in-transit laundry line, an audio portal, a fleece-lined electronics pocket, a zippered passport pocket, a key fob, and a pen slot.
Of course, security is also a concern while traveling, which is why the pack lets you secure all of the main entry points with a single lock. And should the weather turn nasty, the Truist 65L comes with a detachable rain-safe cover (the cover also provides security in crowded areas). Other details include a fast grab handle for hoisting the bag into overhead compartments, lash points for securing extra gear, exterior side pockets for storing quick-grab items, support for Eagle Creek's Pack-It organizing system, and a top expansion collar that provides extra capacity for last-minute packing.
