I don't carry a bag at all. I'd imagine the weight of the bag moreso that anything is a huge factor. Can you lighten the load on your current set up? That being said I would imagine distributing the weight evenly onto both shoulders would help that or BUILD your TRAPs

Heck, I remember way back in highschool my backpack was like 30lbs and I had no prob riding a bike or walking..JR

A bag that would spread the weight would be better but I dare say over time you will be feeling the discomfort on both shoulders rather that just the one. Maybe a waist attachment point? Now the load could be distributed over several areas.
This is what I'm currently using..JR(Image removed from quote.)
This is my before bag, I just think it's just waay to big, I pretty much completly closed off the main compartment, put two very thin things in the second compartment, and only used those two front compartments along with putting things on the sides of it. JR
Your kitty is super cute JR

I think the hydration pack without the bladder is a brilliant solution to your problem. I have a hydration pack I hardly ever use and I think I may try it out as an EDC bag.

I have a hydration pack I hardly ever use and I think I may try it out as an EDC bag. Let me know how it turns out, I have one but it's hydration only, or add on hydration. It wouldn't work for what I'm after.. Kinda sucks cause it's a nice pack too..JR
