Arete Meat Hauler Frame

Arete Meat Hauler Frame - Great product but needs a shorter belt

This is a really comfy pack frame that I have used for a few multi day missions. Only issue is I reckon it needs a shorter belt. I'm 1.8m tall and 78kg so not small but with a heavy load the belt buckles run out of adjustment and the belt works its way down putting pressure on my upper glutes and hip flexors. Only way to stop it is to take more weight on the shoulder straps resulting in sore shoulders. I'm sure smaller guys and girls would find it way worse. I am going to have to try to get it modified. Not ideal!

Arete Meat Hauler Frame

This Arete Meat Hauler Frame is a real game changer !

Absolutely incredible system only problem I have is I have a 32 size waist and it will slip past them when the back is fully loaded causing all the load onto my shoulders. I am running the frame with a fully loaded 75L on 5+ day hikes but just wish the waist strap could be made smaller then what the smallest is now
