I am six feet tall. It looks like the bottom waist strap is going to end up right below my chest and not my waist. Is this true, tall people?

The picture is misleading...My husband is six feet tall and it fits him great. He finds it very comfortable and our 17 month old daughter gets a kick out of being in it too.

HI Jason, I bought this about 3 months ago and love it. I'm 5' 11". If you notice the small strap up top, that will align under your chest and waist fits accordingly. I have twin daughters - both about 22 Pounds - they love it, doesn't impact my back negatively in any way. One feature I like is underneath the babies seat are tightening straps which raise and lower the level of the baby to sit up higher or lower. Definitely recommend. Let me know if you need anything else. Joe jhargett@graebel.com

I think you should be, I'm 5'11, 205, 36 waist, and when I got it, I had to loosen it about 2 inches in the back straps (chest adjust) and loosen like four inches in the belt......so basically this vest fully tightened should be tight and right on you.....and if you're still growing you'll have enough room to keep this for a longgg while.

Here are my thoughts. I'm a 32" waist and a 42" chest. I only weigh about 158-160 lbs. However, I'm 5'10". The legs definitely aren't an issue on the suit since it comes only below the knee (not a full leg suit). I think the medium is right for your waist and shoulders also. Are you (forgive me for putting it this way) "only 5'5" because of a shorter torso or shorter legs? If you simply have short legs, then the medium would probably still be perfect. However, if your legs are longer and your torso is shorter, it might be only a slight issue. All that said, given your chest and waist, the small would still probably be constricting. I'd say to contact the seller in advance and tell them your concerns. That's exactly what I did and they were tremendously helpful (and right) about the sizing.

For me, no. But I'm 6'6". It is just a little too low for me. But if you're 6' tall or under then I'd day it would be just fine.

I'll tell you how if fits me and a friend. I'm 5' 9" and my friend is 6' 2". I wear the vest with the shoulder adjustment as tight as it will go. My friend's fit is with the shoulder adjustment about 2" longer. There is about another 1.5" left of adjustment. The waist will go out to about 46" as will the body side adjustments, so there is plenty of room there. The height adjustment was made with the belt on the hips. Hope this helps.

Good question. I think it would. My husband and I are taller. He is 6'2". I am 5'7". We tried other bags on in REI actually and found this one to be the most comfortable. It strap coming off the bag starts with a thicker width than other bags and then tapers. We felt the support was better. I would guess that even with a smaller back, the support would be good to have.

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.

It may work for you. I am 6'2" and the handles are all the way to the top. I put the handles all the way to the bottom notch and it should work for you. Maybe you can try one out someplace before you buy it. Do you know anyone that has one of these? I would try to test one out before you buy one just to be sure it's comfortable for you. (:

The strap is adjustable. I'm 5'11" I can either adjust it to hit at my waist or even longer. Very nice product.

My strap measures 48 inches. At 6 feet, 200 pound I can wear it cross body. The top on the pack rides just above my belt when worn that way.

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

You are about my height. If it does fit, it will be at the very top of the adjustment. The Velcro kind of jabs between your shoulder blades. Your weight should make the waist strap alright. I am slightly lighter and have it all the way tight. Great bag for the money though.

I am 6'5" and it fits me fine. The only strap I have a problem with is the chest strap. Otherwise the bag is great.

If you are asking about the straps, the will work for you. It is a great backpack, I've never have problems with it. I'm 6'2" by the way.

I'm 5'9' and 190 and it could go smaller... The straps have this cool roll up and Velcro feature that handles the extra length of strap so it's not flopping around... I don't know why others are having this " too big" problem, I have a 34 inch waist and it could go way smaller, the shoulder straps too

No not adjustable, and the person that is carrying as shown in the picture has to be very small in stature. I am 5ft 9 inches and this sits high on my waist .. It is made very well however and is adorable, not sure if I am going to return it or try to add to the top part of the strap to make it longer and usable.

I put the backpack on my girlfriend (5'2" and small-medium build) and she mentioned that it fit like a normal backpack to her (which she liked - considering she normally wears smaller backpacks. She also mentioned that the bottom strap fit perfectly to her waist. So I am sure it would be better for someone a little taller. For me, as a 6'2" man of broader shoulders, I can say this backpack was a little small for me. It fit a lot into it, but it looked small on my body type. Hope that helps!
