I'm actually very impressed with the weight management system for normal and even amazing uses (I put 2 2-litre bottles of soda in one of the deep pockets while having a bag of chips and a bag of cookies in the other side - the 2 mile walk wasn't too bad at all!). The reason I list it as a CON is that the system almost fools you into thinking that carrying the types of loads that I do in exceptional circumstances could be used every day. While toting books & a laptop around in the jacket may work for 1 - 2 days, after that I think the weight (Even with the management system) would bulk you down.

Isn't this true with EVERY jacket/coat out there? Perhaps, I'm missing the point of this CON. Admittedly, I'm not familuar with their products, so maybe you have some input to add to help me understand why this is a con on this particular model over the others.

Just don't want people to think this jacket is the magical exception - you carry what you put in. It might not seem as heavy, but it still is - your back will tell you later if you carry too much too often!
