Date Added: Monday 12 March, 2012 I purchased one of these from the internet and actually paid more than the list price, I was so desirous to get one.
The stability of Short's yoke system makes this very stable on the back, riding high with no shifting when moving.
As for capacity, I have loaded this knapsack with all of the goods needed for a weekend including; spare drawers, socks (2 pair), towel, personal hygene kit, house wife, boot brush, candle,, handkercheifs, Hathway's writing kit, journal and a few small items in the clothes hole (main body). My blanket was folded to size under the cross straps and secured with my painted blanket and shelter half in the pocket flap. My over coat was rolled on top with my British mess tin strapped to the overcoat roll. A friend pick up the knapsack fully loaded and commented on how light it was and how well balanced. This knapsack allow you to do this and the sides of the flap protect your blanket from the rain without overloading yourself or suffering from shifting and sagging loads.
I personally love these patent items.
