It is a hiking/camera-dedicated hybrid, perfectly built and ideal for hikes up to a week long.
The only flaw i found is the narrow shoulder straps – they start killing me after a couple of hours of hiking.

I’m 178cm tall and of fairly average proportions.

I put the Kinesis belt on first just above the hips and the Loka belt fastens around underneath. I suppose it could get quite hot in warm weather, but I certainly didn’t have that problem in Nepal!

Thank you for sharing your findings with others. I will be pursuing this solution. I have two questions.

First question: You note that the height of the shoulder harness on the Loka is not adjustable but fits fits you well, How tall are you?

Second question: Does the Kinesis belt interfere with the hip belt for the Loka? How are these arranged?

Thanks,

Charles Zabielskis
