also, a few of the cam buckles had broke (looks like i got whole new inner strapping on that one)
and the carbon fiber backing is new too i think (even tho i didn't complain about that) as it is now a better shape at the top of it.
took about 3-4 weeks to get it back (they fedex'd two day'd for return)
so, the bag is now better then when i first got it, in terms of function at least
Sounds good! Well at least they're environmental and promote sustainability. Seriously, when I took my old north face bag to north face HQ in San Leandro (I'm a native and I live just a 10 min. drive away), they just binned my old bag and gave me a new.

Thanks; I'll have to check it out the next time my wife drags me to fashion valley; hopefully I'll still have enough money for a bag afterwards. Women and designer brands do not mix at all.
