So honestly, this is a good pack.  Just one issue, the straps for the main flap down stay down.  I don't know if they were on crack, drunk, or just completely stupid, but if there is no pressure pulling from the top flap, why are the buckles pointing up?  What did you expect us to put in there?  A few uumpa lumpas?  Bad design on the buckles, but the pack itself is well made.
