I have very broad shoulders and am a big guy. Sometimes back packs are tight. Is there enough strap to accommodate bigger guys?

I switched out the straps with padded straps and a ruck sack frame. I used the straps that came with the sprayer only once. Once the sprayer is full, the narrow straps really dig into your shoulders and I'm not a big person. The distance between the straps is narrow due to the sprayer size, so I never feel like they sit comfortably on my shoulders. Overall it is a good sprayer and a good price. It was well worth it for me to try straps other than what came with it.

It is adjustable, I am size 46 and it fits me well. There is room for a little more I'm fact. The only complaint I have about the pack is the MOLLE straps on the sides are not properly sized. I attached an IFAK to the side but only after struggling to get the backend loops to accept the straps. You can do it but it ain't easy. Other than that it is a fine pack that will carry a lot of weight

I just tried it on as a back pack and it seems like it would work just fine. the waist strap buckled just fine and the shoulder straps felt good as well.

I am sure if you have broad shoulders with some weight on you it will fit. If you are super skinny, it will not fit.

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

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.

It might be a little tight, and you might want something with more padding for your shoulder carrying around all that equipment.

Definitely. It's all about the weight you're wanting to carry. The straps are long enough to fit pretty much anyone.

I/m 5'11", 175lbs, athletic build with broad shoulders. I can wear this with the strap approx. 75% tightened and it fits snugly, though I tend to wear it the slightest bit looser. If I had to guess, it would probably b quite fine on your build -- unless u were running around and moving quickly with it on. Also, with something as simple as a few safety pins or a clamp, the strap can b manipulated into a much tighter/snugger position.

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'm 6 feet or about the same size as you and I was comfortable in the bag. I'm narrower in the shoulders though.

It depends on how it fits. If you have the proper size there should be SOME padding over the shoulder (rather than strap). It is nearly the same thickness throughout, narrowing down a bit. If it fits way too small, there won't be much pad on the shoulder. It isn't going to be very load bearing and it isn't really thick - just enough to deaden a blow a little. For what it is designed for it works great and we're satisfied with it and TMAS as well.

David. I am 1.93m and weigh 140kg which is about 300lbs and fits. I have a big chest and broad shoulders and its all quite fine. Waist strap is tight but there is extensions for it online.....hope this helps

It might! Unless yours is over weight, the place you may have an issue is in the front. I am pretty sure the girth straps have enough adjustment for you. Another problem you might have with how it fits is that how far down the bags lay. If they are too high the bags can slip off to one side.

yes, it has nice "Back Pack" style straps so you can carry it over your shoulder.. Very well made,, Very rugged..

Not at all. You should be good to go. I am about 275 and it us huge on me. It is designed to cover a full pack so it gives us big guys some room.

You can use chest straps, or let'em dangle. If you have narrow shoulder width, you'll use them and won't understand why anybody wouldn't. If you're a strapping football player, you'll regard them as extraneous baggage and cut them off.
