How well does this pack work for women? I'm 5'4" and worried this may be too big. I do need a ~60L pack.

I bought Two of these packs for I and my wife, who is 5'4". The packs are adjustable to the size of the individual using them. She was very impressed with its functionability. Overall I think tere a good deal.

I'm a small framed guy - 5'8" and 150#. I packed my Explorer 4000 heavy, with 4 liters of water, 30 meters of heavy climbing rope, even an ukulele lashed to it. It weighed in at about 55# and I took it through the Red River gorge wilderness following (and usually in) a creek - 6 hours to my destination. I was delighted with this pack. The straps didn't chafe, my back didn't hurt, it was surprisingly comfortable. In the July heat it was sufficiently ventilated that I didn't sweat as much as I would expect. For the price, I'm singing this pack's praises! It's supposed to be adjustable, but I carried it as it was out of the box with no more adjustment than to cinch it up. Fully loaded with heavy gear, it might be too much for you unless you're a pretty rugged gal. I definitely recommend the pack, but will it also fit a woman comfortably? I say get it, try it out, if it doesn't work for you then use Amazon's amazing return policy. Happy hiking! I hope this helps.

It's not a big pack compared to others. I'm 5'9" and find it comfortable. Can't really guess how it would work for you. I will say I love this backpack!

I own this pack and im not sure exactly what size in inches but I can tell you it fits me perfect and im 5' 10" and it also fits my 11 year old daughter who us 4' 9" and only weighs 70lbs. It has adjustable shoulder straps and every party of the suspension system has adjustment.

I will say - yes, this pack is too large for you, would not be comfortable. I am 5' 9", 170 pounds, regular build, and this pack feels bulky on me. I do hike with it only because it holds so much gear. The two smaller models do not easily handle long lenses.

A 2.5L bladder fits. But I'd suggest not putting one in. I tried & it creates a hump dead center of the pack. Makes it kind of uncomfortable. Plus, you'll be adjusting your straps through the day as you empty the bladder.

I am 5'8" and it fits me fine with plenty of room in the wrist. I think it would fit a 40" waist with ease because on mine I have a huge amount of slack. I would however be concerned with the shoulder straps fitting you if you are 6'2". Other than that the pack has great amount of room. I carry lots of gear for turkey hunting, including a Stanley thermos in the back straps. Good luck, hope this helped!!!

I think it's for someone smaller. I am 5'4 and it fits me perfectly. It is adjustable, but it's a pretty small pack. Just my thoughts on it.

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!

It is a pretty big pack. I usually do not wear anything when out riding, the only reason I got this pack is for patrol duties. I was surprised to see how roomie it is, you can store a lot of stuff in there. Downside is the added weight once it's full (not to mention the bladder is pretty big as well so it will add to that). So if you like riding light I would suggest getting something smaller. If you are looking into a lot of storage then this is a good choice. Considering your petite frame, I wouldn't recommend it (unless the main purpose would be a large haul capacity).

There is only one size for that pack. I'm 6'2" and it didn't fit. Probably best for 5'10" or less.

I'm 5'10" fits me well. Should work, volume is a little small for 2-3 days, but if you don't mind carrying some of her load or go minimalist.

It is an VERY NICE pack! Yes, it is adjustable and both waist and shoulders. I'm 5'4" 115lbs with a short torso. I have it adjusted down as far it will go and it fits me perfectly. Hope this was helpful!

I am pretty much the same size and the pack fits just fine for me. Shouldn't be a problem.

here's the deal. the pack at the widest point is approximately 13". That 13" is approximately 4" down from the zipper on top. the pack tapers in from that point down to the bottom with an additional 4" to the bottom. It might work - if you could put the cylinder on its side. Its definitely sturdy enough to carry the weight. I think it would work for you. Its well made. Hope that helps you.

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.

I am 6' and it barely fits me. The specifications on the bag say it fits 68"-72"... So that would probably mean it would be too big for you. The volume of the pack is not a good indicator of personal fit. You will want to look for torso length ( not sure exactly but I think it is the c7 vertebrae at the base of your neck to the vertebrae just above your hip). This pack says it is 30", but I don't think they are referring to torsosize, I think they are referring to waist size. Measure yourself and try and find the torso size of the pack you want to purchase.

I maybe wouldnt recommend it for a female. I got the XL and if fits perfect (male/built body/6'0")...it's very sturdy and tough.
