There is only one regular issued "pack" (if it means "Rucksack") that is being far from being "comfortable" to carry due to the lack of a proper hip belt. They just have a "string"

If it´s not a rucksack, you carry your regular equipment belt w/ suspenders or a vest but that´s only when deployed.
So there are no other issued "day packs". I in person bought me a Bundeswehr style smaller one:


I like it. You can have a drinking bladder in it. Has a nice padded hip belt and an internal frame.
