I have the camo version but haven't had/seen the normal green version - however I was under the impression that the only difference was the material colour.
Personally don't find it particuarly uncomfortable.

The camo one has three loops the green one two most people say how uncomfortable it is the biggest problem is the side straps are not stitched to the padded ones and they come away and cut into your sides and the chest strap is two high ends up almost round throat i am pleased it suits you was hoping they sort it out I would buy another as I know there aware of these problems

That's not quite true, both the camo and olive now have six loops each.

I find if I lean forward and pull the straps tighter the chest strap sits lower and the side straps dont cut into my sides

The green has 3 as well now it was mentioned in a review by someone called Lewis Porter
just stitch the webbing to the padded section nothing is perfect for everyone

I adapted my dymag mobile hold-all so I can strap it to my back rucksack style
it's brilliant now

This is what I do, when I first slung it on I had the strap around my neck. But by shortening the straps once on the chest strap sits on my sternum and the bag sits comfortably on my back.

Exactly how I have mine sitting,i thought it would be uncomfortable as I'm not small built but I find it very comfortable even on long walks

Had to send my CamFleck one back to them towards the end of the first Lockdown as the front pocket zip stitching had gave way. Had used it twice before Lockdown. Was sorted but never had this happen with any other luggage in the past. Lost faith in it then so sold it. Have a few bits left that got to list in classifieds soon
