it really is pretty small you may want something bigger. My son is also tall and he does not like it.

My son is 5'3 and is in middle school and it fits him great... It hangs right at his waist and isn't droopy. I don't know how tall you are but I think this will work.. I hope this helps!!

I'm 6'3" ~300lbs (56" chest). I really like the backpack but it was simply too small to fit me. Not so much a height thing though for me. It was very difficult to actually get on/off with both shoulder straps maxed out. Wearing it, I felt like I was toting a child's backpack. I really like the quality though and went with a large Everki backpack that was larger and fit me much better.

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 bought it for my daughter so haven't actually used it myself. However, it's pretty tall, I'm 5'6" and her shoulders are even with mine where it's set. It is adjustable as well, so may be able to go taller as well, I'm sure it can go shorter as it was in the box. It's very nice, my daughter LOVES it. Well worth the price!!!

Not at all! I bought mine for my 2nd grade granddaughter. She's among the tallest in the 2nd grade. She loves it.

I would say yes. I have only used it for backpacking and all of my stuff fits in there perfectly. I'm assuming you will only be taking clothes so you should be good with this backpack. I love this backpack!

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.

It shouldn't be, my kindergartner and 2nd grader oath use this backpack and neither of them are 5' 1". It's the perfect size and a little big for them but think they will use all through elementary school. These backpacks hold up really well!

My son doesn't carry his backpack around school. He keeps that in his homeroom class. He will carry the binder from class to class within the school. My issue is finding a backpack that FITS this thing!

I think it's too small. I am 6 feet and it does look small. But I wanted a small bag. So it depends what u want to carry in the bag, that's more important question. Medium might not be a bad choice and can carry decent size stuff.

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.

I just tried placing it into a somewhat large backpack. It is flat enough to fit inside and I thought it was light and easy to lift. But the problem is that it is rather long and the top will stick out. It would have to be a fairly long bag to fit it without showing. It's 22 inches long when folded up. If you don't mind it sticking out the top it might work. I'm just average strength and thought it was fairly easy to carry. If carried in a backpack with straps, I could probably have it on all day. I personally wouldn't carry it around because of the length, but I've seen people carrying bigger, heavier things in bags before. I just tried placing it into a somewhat large backpack.

Yes it is perfect for that height. We someone who is 6'2" who uses it and says its perfect.

In my opinion it is a great buy. I am 5'7 and have a short waist and at times it can be alot for me to handle. Because of its size it can tend to get heavy fast. It is a backpack he can grow into though, because it does have adjustments for all the straps, buckles and on back supports. Depending on if my load is heavier or lite, I can adjust to suit my needs. So for this price I think it offers allot of flexibility for adjustment.

It really has a common size thats pretty comfortable for any adult. If you're that tall it will look good on ya^.^ I would warn.... It has a very heavy pull out of the box :) You wont be sorry!!

Yes , in fact that's why I got it. It does the job. But im also short. If ur tall I don't know how comfortable you will be. I'm happy with it.

It is great for travel but may be a bit bulky for school. I think you could find one better suited for that situation. That being said, I LOVE this backpack!
