Eightysix – The Jack Wolfskin Watchtower Supreme

We borrowed a child backpack this weekend to carry our son in. We are considering buying one, but after trying out this rather nice backpack we were disenchanted by it. The lumbar support was almost none existent and the center of balance was so high, so it seemed that it caused to wobble as you walked (almost). The shoulder straps, quite considerably padded, caused you to rotate you thorax somewhat forward (pseudo hunched over) creating an unnatural curve in your spine. I really don’t think we will get one now, or we will have to try out quite a few more before we do.
