For many years I used to wear good expedition packs around and put 
everything but the kitchen sink into them.

After 15 years, it started to compress some vertebra.
Then I went with the smaller packs.

I decided there might be something to this 'Less is More' philosophy.
For the last 3 years I use a Swiss Gear backpack.

Will last 2 years or so under hard use.
$39 with a Yonge St special.
