I'm 5'3, 130 pounds. Hoping to use this pack when I travel to SE asia. Would the small be too big for me?

Hard to say how it would fit. Is there any way to try a bag on in a store and then compare measurements? My guess is it would be okay but you may want to compare for your own comfort.

Per the pack's description, the small is for a torso length of 14.5" to 18.5." The backpack experts say you should always buy a pack based on your torso length, not your body height. If you can get someone to help you, run a tape measure from where your neck meets your shoulders down to the top of your hips. Place your two hands on the tops of the hips, and let your assistant measure from the top down to the center our your two outstretched thumbs. This is your torso length. I'm guessing the small/medium size will be fine for you, but measure first. Everyone is built differently. I'm 5'9" and the medium/large fits me well. Some people are "higher-waisted" than others, so such a person might have a shorter torso length despite their height. Good luck!

I think case logic DCB-309 will look small on you.The DCB-309 is enough for normal size people up to 5.8" tall with 80kg.So I suggest you to stop by at case logic store or its affiliate in your town and try it yourself.or try to compare the dimension of case logic DCB-309 (Size 17.3 x 8.4 x 11.4 in) vs your current backpacks.Good luck big guy!

I would say no. I am 5'5", 130 with kind of broad shoulders and it is really too big for me.

I am 5'8" and 185 lbs. I got the medium/large and it fits well. I assume the small/medium will work for you. This pack does not come with the rain cover, so I bought one at the time I got the Coyote 80. It is a very nice pack. I like it a lot! The only thing I wish it had was a separate top and bottom compartment. I hate digging for things on the bottom. BUT, for the price and all the other options on this pack, like large outside pockets, access to the inside from the front, and a large pocket on the front, it is the best pack I could have gotten myself. It is also extremely comfortable on the hips and shoulders. Hope this helps...Merry Christmas! HoHoHo! I am 5'8" and 185 lbs. I got the medium/large and it fits well.

Perhaps. I'm tall and thin but have fairly broad shoulders and I have trouble with the shoulder straps slipping off my shoulders. That might be more of an issue for someone with a smaller frame. It's a great pack otherwise.

It's not very big so i would assume it will fit you better than most standard sized backpacks. Quality is excellent for the money, better than some of the other high end names out there. I did switch back to a messenger bag for preference, but i would recommend this backpack to anyone that is looking for great features and quality for the price.

I bought a medium and it's way to big for my normal backpack. It fits my camping backpack. I agree with Kenneth, I think the small would be fine.

I believe it would. I am no 115lb, but I am 5'4" and this pack is a very nice size for a day hike.

Hi! I'm a 24 year girl and I feel comfortable but I still think maybe it's a little big for me. So, You better pick a 50L model made for womans! I would buy High Sierra again. Buy a little one and learn how to pack well to make the things fit in Perfectly. Hope I helped you out.

I think it should fit you just fine..it has plenty of adjutment and is large in size. I am 6' it is not a small pack.

Hi Bob,I have my doubts but it could work. I'm just under 6', 190 lb. Had plenty of room to adjust. Maybe buy it and return if it doesn't fit. Loved the pack!

I would say yes. I have taken a smaller version of this pack, the 34, on a 10 day trip. But I am also a big fan of ultralight, and have gone out of my way to make my equipment small. I also did not carry a hammock on that trip. On weekend trips, I put my sleeping bag in those straps on the bottom, and everything else fits easily enough inside or in the side pockets. Part of that depends on what size sleeping bag and tent you have. Normal summer gear should not be a problem.

No. You will find it is a perfect size and you'll appreciate the extra room over a smaller bag. Definitely not like those big backpack types.

Hello Stephanie, I do not recommend this backpack for a petite woman. There is a smaller version of this pack, it doesn't have a ouch for your sleeping bag. But it would be better suited for someone of your stature. I'll get the name for you and provide, soon.

Hi Rajeev,I would have to say no. I'm built stocky and had the straps pulled close to its end range so I highly doubt it would fit her. This pack is more suited for larger individuals in my opinion.

No. This particular pack won't hold that size. I have a 15inch laptop and it barely fits in the pack. But I've traveled all summer with this pack and love it more everyday. It's small enough to not be bulky but can carry a lot! And great brand.

I am quite pleased with the quality and adjustability of this pack. You will have no trouble with it fitting comfortably.
