In 2004 mass production started on the ILBE Packs (Improved Load Bearing Equipment) to replace the heavier MOLLE Packs (Modular Light Load Carrying Equipment) and was specially designed for the US Marines to provide durable lightweight means of transporting clothing textiles and equipment. There are 2 Generations of this pack. The Gen I pack has the black padding & buckles and the Gen II pack has the coyote brown padding and buckles. Both were produced in the Digital Woodland MarPat (Marine Pattern).
The ILBE Pack is designed to carry a load of up to 120lbs but at the same time it distributes the weight so it is comfortable to wear. The key features to the packs comfort is in its internal frame with 2 metal ribs on the outer sides and 2 larger spars in the middle. These spars are already shaped to fit most peoples backs but can be custom bent if need be.
The pack includes soft padding on both the hip bet and shoulder straps. With the wide hip belt it displaces the weight around your body with less pressure points.  Both straps can be adjusted to custom fit your body and has a breast strap that can be raised or lowered to fit both men and women.  The ILBE uses Thermomoulding in the hip belts.  These weight barring straps are shaped to match the curves of the body.  The waist belt is designed to minimize wearer discomfort.  It meshes 4 different types of foam for maximum comfort.
