Abstract
A pack includes a bag and a belt attached to the bag for releasably securing the pack around the torso of a person. The belt has a first flexible belt portion extending from the bag at one side of the torso of the person and terminating at a free end, and a second flexible belt portion extending from the bag at the other side of the torso of the person and terminating at a free end. A connecting device on each flexible belt portion releasably connects the belt portions to secure the belt around the torso of the person. The connecting device on the first belt portion is movable longitudinally along the length of the first belt portion for shortening and lengthening the first belt portion when tightening the belt about the person's torso. The pack further has a rigid loop affixed to the pack adjacent to the first belt portion. Whereby, when the connecting devices are interengaged to secure the belt around the torso of the person, the free end of the first belt portion is adapted to be inserted through the loop and then pulled against the loop to cinch the belt tight around the person' s torso.
