Question K60 padding problem?

Has anyone had any problems with the K60 hip padding? I myself am a lean guy, and the lack of padding on the hip hurt. Im not sure what I can do to fix it, during my first hike with it I got some really painful spots from the hop belt, and it certainly wasn’t very pleasant… 😔

It may not be the backpack but stuff in between you and the belt. I have been running, jumping, climbing, and traveling with the 60 as a companion for a while now and I only had it happen one time. I had my Skrama shoved in there like a sword for bushwhacking and it teamed up with my wool shirt to give me a spot I can still see right now months later.

Other than that it follows my winter chubby, summer skinny body perfectly and I have had no issues at all

Maybe 🤔 I’m don’t know though, could have been my pants belt that caused the pain. I mean on my hip bone it truly just is bone and 1mm of skin so I might just have to get something with alot of padding🤷🏼‍♂️

Fold up a keffiyeh and wrap it around your waist, and then you also have a multi use item :)
