To me, the biggest difference is the sweat factor.                    .
Innies paste themselves to your back even when it's
not hot.  Outties let your back breathe a bit more.
Another thing is pockets and organization.
My outtie has six pockets which allow me to organize
everything for easy access even in the dark.  I'd
just freak with a pack without pockets cause I
know that whatever I needed would be buried.
My trail kit is in the lower left side pocket.
contains:
tiny siccors
molefoam
foot powder
a couple bandaids
a couple foil packs  of antibiotic goo
my version of TP
wet-ones
bug dope
sunscreen
basically everything I need for the day
Then there is my nite kit
first aid /repair kit
well you get the picture.
A place for everthing and everything in it's place
OK...call me anal...but I never have to dig for stuff.
BTW.my outtie is a Camp Trails McKinley med.
looove the secret pocket <<G>>
