Would this be too long for a 5'4" female? Can carry the weight, but bigger packs have shoulder straps 4-5" above my shoulders.

I Cannot Fully Answer That Because I'm Very Tall. However, I Do Believe There Is A Pin Adjustment For The Shoulder Position. This Pack Has Tons Of Adjustment Everywhere! I Hope This Helps! (Sorry For The Caps, I'm On My Phone... ) -Anthony-

Cannot really give a definite answer on that, but the pack as stated here by others does have a lot of adjustable straps and pins. I am sure it will work out just fine!

This is a big, tall pack. I think it could be adjusted to fit you, but it will tower over your frame.

The pack is very adjustable. I'm 5'9. It should work I would guess. I would say it may be close but it would be worth it

I am 5'3" and it seems big but it works great. It has straps you can adjust.

I just recently ordered this pack last year and i'm 5'6/ 175lbs and it worked great for me. It has very comfortable shoulder straps and an ergonomic fit. perfect for 2 day hiking trips!!!

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.

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!

The straps are long enough to go over your shoulder. Like long purse straps but more heavy duty. I am 5'6" and if I hold the straps in my hand the bag is close to the ground but does not touch or drag. It's close, maybe have a few inches clearance.

I suspect it would be a little on the long side, but not so long/large that it's uncomfortable. I've put this bag on my 4' 8" daughter and it's still a little big. I'd recommend finding your torso length (YouTube) to know for sure. This bag runs about 16", but keep in mind you probably won't be loading that much weight into it, so it won't be as important if it's not your exact size. Hope this helps.

I would have to say yes. Make sure you have a friend adjust the rods to the curvature of your back while you have the pack on. The chest strap and slide up and down to make it more comfortable for your anatomy. It's really quite a great pack for the price.

I am 5'4" and have not had any issues. I am sure you would be fine using it, and it is adjustable since you can always release/add air to your comfort.

I'm 5'4" male it fits me just fine. Two velcro straps fully adjustable.You might want to consider the other vests on the market which are designed for females. Those female vests have all the weight on their back in order to compensate for their bust in the front. And they well balanced. This one will fit too, if this is the only one you are interested. This one is exceptionally well made and well balanced, though.

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'm 6'3" and have/had this pack. It wasn't so much height that was the problem, it was girth. I have ~58" chest with relatively broad shoulders and this pack, even with the shoulder straps fully extended, was a challenge to take on/off. Then, once I got it on, I looked like shrek with a kids backpack high on my back. It wasn't pretty... I gave it to my son for school. He's about 5'9" and thin, it works very well for him.

I honestly do not see this pack for a large man. Not because of the capacity but the way it is built, I think the waist straps are little too small. I think of all aspects of a backpack, trying on the waist straps is most important. That is where all the weight should be held and the fit is important.

My height is 5'.4" and if I put the strap to the limit, from my shoulder to the middle of my thigh

My girlfriend is 5' 2" and I think this bag is far too large for her, even cinched-down all the way. To be on the safe side, I would go one size smaller.

I am a woman 5'4" yes you could use it I did. It doesn't seem so happy at first but it does get heavy fast. The key is to use it about 10 minutes and then take a big break

I'm 5'4" and found it to be long, but adjusted the strap. This strap is mounted to the tripod mount at the bottom of the camera. Please also note that I had it come loose and almost dropped by Canon 5DM3. I did purchase the extra strap to be on the safe side.

Hello Stephanie, I do not recommend this backpack for a petite woman. There is a smaller version of this pack, it doesn't have a ouch for your sleeping bag. But it would be better suited for someone of your stature. I'll get the name for you and provide, soon.
