- For a tight load and good balance, Packmod compression straps (included) can be run from any loop to any other loop, so you can sculpt your pack to the shape of your load
- Packmod mesh pocket on the shoulder strap is great for phone, snacks, sunglasses and more—or you can take it off altogether to reduce weight
