Reviewers note that the EVERGOODS MPL30's side-access zipper is on the left, which can make access awkward for right-handed users. Reviewers describe the EVERGOODS MPL30's curved back panel, wedge-shaped base, and contoured straps as ergonomic and form-fitting. The EVERGOODS MPL30's side-access pocket can be reached by removing one shoulder strap and swinging the pack forward.
The reviewer reports that the EVERGOODS MPL30's contoured harness may dig into smaller or wider users when the hip belt misses the right spots. The EVERGOODS MPL30 lacks a dedicated system for stowing unused hip-belt straps, leaving them dangling when the belt is not used.
