This is exactly how I felt about it. Glad to know I'm not crazy for questioning this insane price 😅

I just looked them up, that’s an unbelievable amount of money for what should be something incredibly simple.  No hip harness either so all the weight is dropped on your shoulders.  A 200 dollar glorified plate carrier?  A 500 dollar ripstop pack?

Just for the exercise. I'd like to work towards something competitive, but I'm just starting out. Currently, I have a hiking carrier for children and carry my 30lb 3 year old around, but she's not always able to come with me. Sounds like I could just get a simple hiking pack with a hip belt.

I guess I should ask exactly what you plan on doing, just carrying around 20lbs+ for miles uphill as exercise?  Preparing for anything specific?
