(We havent tested this size yet, but according to a brand representative, theyve had numerous customers exchange the 20-liter size for the more-popular 25-liter backpack.) The adjustable straps are just right for midsize cargo, as theyre better cushioned than those on our pick from Everlane but not as substantial as the straps on our picks from Timbuk2 and Aer, so they hang more naturally over the shoulders when the bag isnt full

However, anyone who doesnt mind the bulkier Fairview will benefit from extra comfort and space

Also, this backpack is one of the most expensive in this gear roundup, which might discourage some people from purchasing it
