## Customer feedback

Aggregate ratings are predominantly five-star, with a small spread of lower ratings. This suggests generally favourable customer sentiment but does not identify what buyers liked or disliked. The ratings alone cannot confirm fit, comfort or performance for a particular wearer, so try the adjustable back and hip fit with a representative load where possible.
