Who’s using a Kuiu pack

[LaHunter]

I saw a guy make multiple trips with a Kuiu Icon Pro last year in CO, and a good buddy has an Ultra. They seem to work fine for them. I've tried my buddy's vs my Kifaru though, and with weight there is no comparison in comfort IMO.

Not doubting your experience at all. Where was the discomfort and how much wt were you using to do the head to head comparison? Were you comparing the Kuiu Ultra or the Kuiu Icon Pro to your Kifaru? Big difference in load carrying ability between the two. Also, with any pack the fitting is very important, so how much time did you spend adjusting the Kuiu to fit your body?
