Instead of being on your back like most packs, the Ribz Front Pack's pockets are located on the front at your rib cage. I wonder how they came up with the name Ribz?

With two small pockets and two large, this pack can hold a lot of gear. On a day hike, I fit my Eno hammock, straps, a Nalgene bottle, rain jacket, camera, phone, and a sandwich (peanut butter if it makes any difference) in my Ribz Front Pack.
The two larger pockets have mesh pockets inside that are good for keeping your smaller items together.
In addition to better accessibility, this pack is also water resistant, which came in handy while kayaking this past week on Mingo Creek near Georgetown, SC.

The comfort of this pack is also a major plus. After adjusting the straps to the right place, I can barely tell I have it on.
Of all the outdoor activities where this pack would be a must have in, it is most crucial for backpacking. For those of you who know how annoying it is to have to take off your heavy backpack, search through it for a camera or chap-stick, then heave the pack back on your back, just to realize you need something else from it, the Ribz Front Pack has your back, well your front actually.
Now you can leave your pack on while having access to the things that are important while trekking.
