I am going backpacking in europe, for a few weeks--is this pack an okay size?

My son used it for a 5 day wildernes trip, but we hadably to scale down his load because he only weighs 65lbs. It could easily carry 70-80 lbs of gear. would say you can make it work if you are only taking limited clothing and food. If you are not caring much food or cooking supplies, I think it will work great. There are lots of pockets for toiletries and personal items. A 30 degree bag in a stuff sack fits in the sleeping bag section perfectly. I am 5'5" and the pack length fits me very comfort

As long as you keep your sleeping bag separate and pack light you should be okay. There is a larger size from the same manufacturer that you might want to consider.

Its a perfect size:) I'm a 5'7 woman and it fits really nicely. Not too big which was my concern; I carried my sleeping bag, mat, tent, food, camping stove and my clothes. Since you're going to Europe you won't need have of what I packed. Have fun!

That depends on what you need to pack. If you are not planning to take hiking gear (tent, sleeping bag, stove, cookware, etc) and are using it primarily for clothing, camera, personal items the answer is yes. However, if you are taking all the above plus several changes of clothing and several days food at a time then go up to the 4000 series.

Yes this pack is strong with plenty of room .You should not have any problems.

NO. Bought for my wife who is the SAME measurments as you and it did not work very well as it's non-adjustable. You'll need a pack that's adjustable if you're not going to go into a store to physically try on for best fit. Getting a pack that doesn't fit right is the best way to ruin a hiking/trekking/backpacking trip, TRUST ME.

We have a L for the 75L backpack and it is spacious. So I expect the Small would be sufficient (unless you carry large stuff to the outside of your pack).

This backpack is a good size. I just looked at the one I have and I don't see any problem at all.

You should have no problem fitting it in, Might be a little uncomfortable to walk around with 2 liters if water in a drawstring backpack though.

if it is overstuffed, it may be too long. I have had friends use theirs as carry on, but I did not attempt to. It is a smaller (higher than a chair back) pack and very lightweight though.

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!

Depends on the size of your bag. It fits in my hiking packpack no problems. (I use a Osprey manta 20)

I'd get a large. You can't make a small bag big; can make a big bag small. My pack is 85L and I have a large. Fully packed, the pack fits in the bag good.

It might be a bit big, but it should fit it easily. The cover fits my 40 and 50 liter packs.

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

Depends on you. If you don't want to carry around a full pack, or something that looks huge and floppy for just some day hiking, then yes. Otherwise... no?

It appears to be compared to other packs of mine. I haven't filled it for measure. A buddy has the large, which is huge. Medium is good for a three day weekend or a manageable "get home bag". More important: this was in poor condition when received (patched, resewn, & coating worn off).

It's been a while, Al, but I seem to recall no unusual sizing issues. I sent it back, however, because it was too heavy for backpacking. If you're planning on standing in one place (on a boat or something,) this would be the ticket. I'm going to guess it'd be a medium?

I think It may fit you very well.My hikes are for the day and of 5 to6 miles.I have adequate room for a book, first aid kit, lunch and a small soft cooler for two Coca Colas.

Since I bought this backpack it has given me lots of pleasure in using it. And I reckon that if one were to pack properly and only essential items, it should be good enough for a 4 week trip......................
