>>1997383>but I'm not too sure how I feel about the lack of adjustment on the shoulder strapsYou have to know that Savotta produces equipment for the average built military man in the finnish defence forces. If you're roughly 185cm high then the L probably fits your back. There's room for adjustments on the hip belt (+/- 5m IIRC). I was in your situation too and went with the L. So far, I didn't regret it.
>>1997403>The side pouches don't always sit that well (it's MOLLE after all) and it takes away from home streamlined the pack actually is.Don't forget about the horizontal pouch M which is strapped to the front or the top of the backpack, retaining its streamlined properties that way. If you're totally crazy, you can always do it like the folks at Varusteleka and get the additional DP10 roll top bag and strap it to the top.
