I just got a new Seal Line Pro Pack 70L and I'm just tickled pink.
Sometimes a person might have this image in their mind of what the perfect item might be and this matches mine to a T.
I've been wanting this arrangement of feature for a while.

I have the same pack and like it a lot, have had it for three or four years now. One problem I had was that the shoulder buckles would unbuckle when the pack was on. It happened so often we had to try to use duct tape to keep them together to keep moving. Pretty frustrating trying to portage day after day with the buckles letting loose. Never did figure out why, nothing appeared broke. Maybe too much weight in the pack? Another guy bought one at the same time on sale, and had the same problem this year. Hopefully they just had some bad buckles and have solved the problem. Looks like they have made some changes from the one I have.

I immediately replaced them with Sea to Summit buckles and have never had them come undone on multiple trips since.

Bought one last year and used it on my first trip to BWCA. Loved the pack. Good choice!

I have a friend who has one very SIMILAR that is a few years old.
I do believe these are the currently upgraded model.
Note that it says, "Engineered with all-new, fully-adjustable suspension designed for serious comfort.........."

As well as. "The updated harness system offers soft-edged,......."

And the You Tube video is from January 7, 2019.

we've got the 120L model - great packs and no complaints.

I have a 10-15 yr old Pro 115. No complaints. Wears like iron.

+1 except ours is even older and it is bombproof. Never had a single issue with it.
