My thesis project also consisted of soft goods elements and challenges to overcome such as:
* Modular inner compartments, 
* Inner and outer weight distribution,
* Placing attachment points,
* Hierarchy of accessibility,
* Methods of getting it on and off the user's back

* Methods of getting it on and off the user's back
I was mentored by two Soft Goods Designers which helped me resolve some of the issues I came up with.

Make patterns,
and quite familiar with technical terminology and processes.
