I noticed it said this pack was, "perfectly sized for youth and the light backpacker". I am an adult male that is 5'10" and 170 lbs. Please help!

I got it for my 5'4" 115lb girlfriend. It holds a ton of stuff. Its a good 2-3 day bag. Strong and well made. For the money I would say its definitely worth it. For your frame it will seem narrow but you could load it up. It is not 1000 denier nylon like a mil spec bag. So I would consider this a semi serious camping/hiking bag.

The guy that I took that had it was 510 and 180. It fit him fine. But be aware that when you pay this little for a backpack you are paying for cheaper material and easily breakable buckles his hip buckle broke an hour into the trip.

So im adult female. 5'3 and 100 pounds. My backpack weighed over fifty pounds.. it really did its job and it was great. I can see it working for any adult.. you would just have a much much much easier time carrying it.. the straps are very adjustable

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!

Hi Bob, I'm about your size, and I've had back surgery. I know this question is old, but it doesn't seem to have been answered very well. I don't have this pack, but I am interested in it. The sizing issue is not as much about overall height as it is about torso length. The best thing would be to visit a specialty store that sells this kind of gear and get your torso measured...or checkout this howto: http://www.rei.com/learn/expert-advice/backpacks-torso-hip-size.html. Getting the right sized pack is crucial when you're going to be carrying 65L worth of gear. My day pack which gets a lot of use is a Osprey Kestrel 32 with adjustable torso, at 6'4", I've got a 22" torso, the Kestrel is awesome. Hi Bob, I'm about your size, and I've had back surgery.

Yes PLEASE!! I have been looking for this information for a while now. I can't believe that so many backpacking items don't list the pack dimensions!Sorry I don't have the answer, but like you I really need to know. By posting here, I can subscribe to this discussion and get an email when someone with the answer posts. Which I really hope someone out there who owns this does.

Stephanie - That's a tough one. Most packs adjust for someone's size, even someone little like you. I think the key is how much can you carry and still be efficient on your hike or camping trip. The bigger the pack, the more stuff you'll bring, the heavier it would be. I think if you purchase a pack larger than 50 liters, it may be too difficult to keep up and haul that much weight if you fill it.

I am 6 ft and it fits fine. Its very light compared to some of my other large packs and is the most comfortable.

I am 5'8" and 185 lbs. I got the medium/large and it fits well. I assume the small/medium will work for you. This pack does not come with the rain cover, so I bought one at the time I got the Coyote 80. It is a very nice pack. I like it a lot! The only thing I wish it had was a separate top and bottom compartment. I hate digging for things on the bottom. BUT, for the price and all the other options on this pack, like large outside pockets, access to the inside from the front, and a large pocket on the front, it is the best pack I could have gotten myself. It is also extremely comfortable on the hips and shoulders. Hope this helps...Merry Christmas! HoHoHo!

I believe it would. I am no 115lb, but I am 5'4" and this pack is a very nice size for a day hike.

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!

I'M 6FT AND 275. I DON'T THINK THAT IT IS TO SMALL. I HAVE A TON OF STUFF IN IT ALREADY AND THE MAIN COMPARTMENT ISN'T EVEN A THIRD FULL! I DO like the way it is wider at the bottom than that top. To me it just looks better than one that is the same width top to bottom. I'd say go for it if you are looking for a smaller/day pack. It's a good 'un!

I think you'll be fine with this pack. It wasn't very big. As for space available, I used it to hike Pikes Peak in Colorado Springs. I filled the bladder and still had room for a spare bottle, extra gloves, and snacks for the day.

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.

I am 5' 11"... the pack felt small on me with the straps lengthened to their max. The bag is a small person bag with minimal equipment expectations.

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 husband is also 5'9" and weighs more than you do. The pack is comfortable and also adjustable, fits well. You should be fine!
