Review on 🏔️ Optimized for Hiking: Osprey Hikelite 18 Backpack by Julian Banks

I'm 6ft 1in, weigh 280lbs and have struggled to find hiking gear that didn't remind me that I didn't "fit" into the backpacker crowd. This bag does exactly that - it's lightweight, offers good support, doesn't cut into my back and is just the right size for my backpacking journey. The straps are adjustable so they provide the right amount of support to take the weight off my lower back . and provide enough space so you don't feel cramped or unnecessarily cramped. Only criticism was the waist belt which wasn't long enough (ie my stomach isn't small enough) to fit around my waist. But the waist belt can only be removed until you fit inside, otherwise this bag is perfect for day trips.
