I was looking for one that would hold plenty of water for all-day hikes, without having to bother with tons of unnecessary storage space (I pack light!). This pack is perfect - a 3 liter bladder, and just enough room for your hiking basics. <br /> <br />The X-factor harness looked odd to me, and honestly, I was skeptical - but then I put it on! WOW, what a difference! I hadn't realized just how restrictive other packs have been. This feels like it was custom-made for me, and it only got better with the many ways to adjust the fit even more! Totally NOT bulky, you can move your arms much more freely, no way this thing is going to slide off to one side, and the pack lays along your spine like it was molded to you! <br /> <br />I only wish that the bladder came with anti-microbial protection (maybe it does, but it doesn't say so anywhere that I can find) - but with the Slideseal top, cleaning it is SO much easier than cleaning the traditional screw-top bladders (like Camelback). The Slideseal top opens wide enough so that you can reach your hand all the way in & wash it thoroughly, so it shouldn't be a problem. <br /> <br />Great pack, fair price. More color options would be nice, but luckily, I like yellow! Buy it, you won't regret it! Review by norcal for NATHAN X-TREME HYDRATION PACK

The X-factor harness looked odd to me, and honestly, I was skeptical – but then I put it on! WOW, what a difference! I hadn’t realized just how restrictive other packs have been. This feels like it was custom-made for me, and it only got better with the many ways to adjust the fit even more! Totally NOT bulky, you can move your arms much more freely, no way this thing is going to slide off to one side, and the pack lays along your spine like it was molded to you!
