zPacks is a lot bigger and seems more corporate these days so I’d double check on return policy. But if they still allow this, I suggest ordering the pack you think is most likely to work and seeing how it loads. Return it unused if it isn’t good for you. Packs are like clothing. Nearly impossible to know until you have it in your hands.
