airscape™ suspension Fit adjustment
Think of wearing your pack in this way: you’ll
adjust the suspension onto your body and then
you’ll adjust the pack onto the suspension.
A Loosen all straps and then put the pack on
and snug down the hipbelt. B Pull the lower
shoulder strap adjusters into a comfortable
position and then pull the load lifter straps in
making sure that the harness doesn’t rise off
your shoulder. C Adjust the sternum strap up or
down to a comfortable position and then clip in.

change throughout your trip, therefore no
adjustment is perfect. Adjust your pack as much
as you need, redistributing your load is key to
comfort.
