No, it is meant as a light pack. It folds up into itself into a pocket. Great for travel

Not on this bag. It is a a backpack with removable chest and waist belts/straps.

No, there is n o waist strap, however, the shoulder straps are padded and quite comfortable.

Yes, but it is not very large, even without the bladder. It has been a good day pack for me. It is just too small to pack the extra clothing needed in the high mountains, so for those hikes, I add a lumbar pack.

No, it uses velcro to close the back pack. It is extremely light but strong material.

The waist strap attachments are sewn to the pack and the strap is included with the pack. The waist strap is only about 3/4 of an inch wide. It is not intended to carry weight, just to keep the pack from flopping around.

No. It has a flap held with Velcro and reinforced with a snap. It will accommodate a belt or strap approx. 1-1/2" wide.

No, it doesn't. But it is an excellent backpack. My wife is using a lot and we attached an "Hook 'n' Stroll" clip to the stroller to rest your back...

Yes. The straps are adjustable. I also bought a separate chest strap as the pack did not come with one.

Im not sure. As a outdoorsman myself this Hydration pack does not have a waist strap to hold the pack down. Running or sudden bending over the pack move all over. I have to cinch the shoulder strap real tight almost uncomfortably on my armpit so it wont move around

No it does not. personally I thing a waist strap would be a good addition to it. I find the waist strap is nice to have on my Camelbak. It does not really need a chest strap because it arm strap hold it tight at the chest, but when it is heavy the waist strap would surly help out. The only reason I see they did not put one was because or expense or because you are saying to the world you have something expensive in your backpack.

Yes, it has a belt; it is separate from the costume and it ties in the back.

Does it have straps to attach it around your waist (so that it stays on your back)?

Yes. Mine did. There are also different size waist belts. If you are bigger try and get a larger size

I bought this bag as a gift. So, I do not know if the waist straps are removable. You might call REI and ask. They sell this brand but I don't know if they have this particular model. Good luck.

Yes, it has a sternum strap and a waist belt. I removed the sternum strap on mine as I'm tall and the bag isn't that big that it feels loose on the shoulders. It's not technically ventilated I guess, but the padding on the back has channels and grooves in it to help airflow, so it's not just a flat foam pad against your back, there is some topography to it. Try looking at pictures on the manufacturers website, they show stuff in more detail. It's a quality pack!
