My original REI UL 60 lightweight backpack had a few seam problems (due, I feel, to weakness of the thin body fabric) so I returned it for the updated version. The "Cruise" version does have stronger fabric but, strangely, it seems quite a bit taller & larger in capacity than my original UL 60.Am I dreaming? Both packs were size Large.

Anybody else notice this?

Maybe now I won't need the REI side pockets I bought for the previous model.
I've got them on the new Cruise but if'n I don't need the space then off they come.
