19 inches seems really tall - does that include the loop? I'm 5'3" and and wondering if this bag is too big for me.

Bag itself might be slightly big, but straps can adjust to you height so not a big deal.

It would be close. 12-13 inches fits fine. Setting the tripod diagonally is an option, but then, too, it may be angled up at one end a bit. Mine is roughly 23 inches. I place it across the top of the bag prior to closing the flap and latching. It works great.

there isn't an attached belt loop to this bag. I swapped out the original strap for a longer one to wear it cross-body, works well for me. And though it is a small bag, I think it would feel awkward attached to one's belt. That said, it is very sturdy and I think it would hold up to rigging it up with a carabiner.

I have a 34" waist and my torso is a bit longer than yours and I am sure there is both room to "cinch-it down" or open it up from there, as needed. I know it says "skinny" style in the description, but I think that is very misleading because this bag will fit most frames (unless you are less than 120 lbs or over 300).This is easily the best bag I have ever owned (out of about 5-6 other brands, sizes, styles, etc.) and I have been adding gear to it ever since I received it from Amazon. I cannot wait to really get out and beat on it a bit because I know it will take it and as such, would recommend it to anyone.JC I have a 34" waist and my torso is a bit longer than yours and I am sure there is both room to "cinch-it down" or open it up from there, as needed.

Yes, the strap is adjustable. I'm 6'2" with long legs and I didn't adjust the strap out of the box. I use it outside and on the gym wood floors indoor. I wrap the bag with a towel so it won't mark up the gym floor.

I am 5' 2" and have had no issues with the size! It adjusts fine for my height. I did have some issues with the adjustment slipping throughout the day but nothing major. I used this everyday on a trip through Asia for 2.5 weeks - It was well worth it!! Much more comfortable than my other strap - less stress on my shoulders. I recommend it for traveling!

I have a 9'3" Mc Tavish original and I believe it is 221/2 inches wide and fits no problem. Good bag I am happy with it. Hope it helps.

My wife is short. Kinda less than 5 feet. I made her carry this bag a few times and didn't find it odd. I think it's perfect.

I'm 5'9 and can sit comfortably on this bag. However I'm much to tall to stretch out on it. I bought two of these for my kids who love them but they are ages 6 & 8! Good luck

I believe it does matter if you want to use the yellow straps. I have only used this bag once so far and without the straps because a friend with our same brand umbrella told me our umbrellas are too tall. Admittedly I took her word and did not test it out the day we went to the beach. Our umbrellas are 7ft.

I don't have it with me right now, but I'm a slim, 6 foot tall, and most of it is torso (shorter legs). If I was to let the strap out all of the way, the bag would be on my ass.

Hi my name is Sharlene I keep this backpack in my handbag and have two in back of car. 9in(long) x 6in(high) flat around 1/2in maybe a little less. When opened 20in(high) x about 13in(long) but the bottom is longer as it goes up so 13in to the top of about 6in but don't let this fool you as this is just what you need more room at the basis to hold things in place as these numbers are when empty. I have the bags you buy at shopping centers etc. which I thought were good but I can fit the contents of two large bags into this backpack and have two free hands. Looks cheap feels cheap but this little wonder is still a wonder to me. Also it has a loop to hang up closed or open and two stronger loops for a belt good if you like to go for a walk but just in case you get hot and need to take of a light jacket etc. put in something spouse "just had to have". For the price I have to say you cant go wrong if you don't like it someone will it's just that little thing you don't think you need till you have it - I use it for everything much lighter then another foldable traveling backpacks I have, I hope this is of some help in making up your mind about your purchase. PS when unfolded you have a pocket in the front for keys, money, the I have to get to in a hurry items.

Unfortunately no, I am also 5' 3" and it is much to big for me. It reaches from my nape to below mid-thigh. I would recommend a smaller bag as this one is longer than most.

I'm 5'10". I can't imagine the strap being a problem for anyone of any size. It's long enough so it can be worn diagonally across your chest with the bag on your back. It's also easy to just throw over one shoulder.

Caitlin, The straps are pretty short. I do not believe it would work as an over the shoulder bag. Sorry I could not give a more positive response. It is still a really neat bag!!! Wanda

The bag strap is adjustable to 52 inches. Not sure why you'd want it that long though. It's a great bag. Carries everything I need, sturdy and well made.
