| "I received my Super Padre size Small yesterday, and after trying on over 50 packs at several store, THIS ONE fits!!! I can't believe it; I expected to say yet another 'Oh well...'. I carried some weight around in it today, and didn't even want to take it off! And when I did it was with great fondness that I set it down. I haven't worn a pack for 30 years.... I am so pleased to once again be able to use one..... I love it and thank you so much for your concern for the health of those of us who wear these things!!!" Kathleen DeCelle, Aug. 2002 |

| "I own 2 Super Padres, 1 large size and 1 medium, and use them for travel -
both for business and for leisure. The large holds enough for a 2-week vacation, while
still being a manageable weight. The medium easily carries all I need for 1 or 2 day
business trips.... For me, the Super Padre defines
independent travel!" epinions.com product review
