Aug 18, 2014 at 14:31 comment added Paul Paulsen @Liam: Normally, for heavier packs (~18kg and above), more than 50% of the weight should be on your waist, not on your shoulders. In smaller packs you might do without them, but for this type of backpack a waist strap definitely doesn´t get in the way, but is essential.

Aug 18, 2014 at 13:21 comment added user2766 good point @nivag. I was thinking about my bag. I don't like waist straps. They get in the way when the going get's tough!
