    Yeap, try REI online. They have a great selection of packs, plus pretty detailed information on each one.

    My husband really likes his Osprey pack. I use one from LL Bean thats not bad, but the pack itself is kind of heavy so it limits what I can carry, hopefully I get to upgrade this year.

    Good luck!!

    Hi Kelanor, thank you for the info. osprey i think quite hard to get it here the dealer is just too little also it price is quite high for me. but i do like the design. anyhow buying a good pack is not a bout the design but it comfort. but the web site is just so good for me to find some info. really appreciate it..

    thank you fvcchris for the compliment on north face, in fact it is one of my consideration as it more affordable to me compare to karrimor and osprey.
    Yeap
