Call me cheap, but I don't see any features on any of them that are so different from the ILBE packs the Marines were issued and are now selling for $130-ish delivered on ebay....
The ILBE is OK for the money. I used one for a season. They are sturdy and fairly well built. Flawed design in some respects though, mainly relating to load carrying ability, so... I sold it to go back to the old BORA80 and now a MR Grizzly. Love both of those packs. I would fully expect every pack in sreekers review to pack heavy loads much better than the ILBE. Which is the most important 'feature' of any backpack, IMO.
