While in theory I liked my Eberlestock setup. The Eberlestock F7 Kite & F1 Mainframe combo did not pan out in practice. Using the Eberlestock F7 Kite & F1 Mainframe proved to be a pain, as you have to unhook the straps to open the F7 Kite front pouch. Then the pouch would just fall off the F1 Mainframe. Then you would have to line the Eberlestock F7 Kite & F1 Mainframe back up, strap it down, etc. It was very clunky using them together.

With all that said, the comfort of the shoulder and waist belt of these were awesome. I had no issues hiking, etc. I packed the F7 Kite to the brim and was at one point worried the zipper might pop. But these seem constructed well and I did not have any issues. It was just using the Eberlestock F7 Kite & F1 Mainframe in conjunction is not something I would recommend.
