Comments about REI Lookout 40 Pack - Women's:
I really wanted to like this pack. I had used an earlier version for several years without any problem, and I love the arrangement of the multiple pockets and storage areas. However, the fit has changed from the older versions, and even with help in the store, It couldn't be adjusted for a comfortable fit. I'm 5'2", and the small size was still too long in the torso. The result was that the shoulder straps dug into my neck, and I could feel blisters coming on just walking around with it on in the store. REI needs to rethink the design of this pack. 5'2" is not an uncommon height for a female, and it shouldn't be this hard to find a pack that fits.

Comments about REI Lookout 40 Pack - Women's:
Got this for my wife, and myself a matching men's 40. Works great for our adventure Saturday day hikes around San Diego county. Ample padding on the shoulders and back, in addition to spine contour works great for our needs.
The waist strap and shoulder tie straps work great and hold the pack in place well enough to get around comfortably. I would definately get this pack again.
The one downside is some of the exterior pocket's zippers are of lower quality, and tend to snag and grind on teeth when used.

Comments about REI Lookout 40 Pack - Women's:
Overall, I love this pack. I carry camera gear, so I really appreciate all the pockets & being able to organize all my stuff. Perfect size for longer day hikes (10+ miles) Pack is rugged & has minimal mesh (which is easily torn on sharp rocks) so, great for scrambling too. It isn't lightweight, but is so comfortable, I don't notice. Downside is the gear loop system. My hiking poles really flop around & easily come out of it. The bottom loops aren't adjustable & for some reason, the top ones are too long.

I bought this pack after my daughter grew old enough to start hiking with me. I like its capacity and ease of loading because I end up carrying a lot of gear. I want her early trail experiences to be great.
This pack is light, comfortable, durable and very well designed. It even has a space for a "hydration bladder."
