Planning on buying this item (2013 or 2014, opinions wlcm) for my bro, who is quite the large dude 5'10"/300-ish. Is there a major diff. btwn M or L?

you can see the size differences on timbuk2.com they have photos of each bag in each size carried by different people. They tell you how tall each person is carrying the bag. there is a difference between M and L, Large is pretty big..

I was just wondering if you ever compared them after this post? We are considering both vehicles too for our 2 children, one who is big for his age as well. We plan to try and see them at the store together (if possible) but I found your post and wondered what your result was? Thanks

Get the M. I'm 5'10" and bought the L. I love them! It will be snug but thats the point of compression support. Good luck!

As for sizing, they would be the same. It's just a merger of listings on Amazon, one showed M, one showed Medium, so they have both after the merger As for model year, the only difference is color

I am a big guy at 5'11 & 190 lbs. I have a 36" waist & I bought the two bottle version of this belt in a large & it is way too big. Usable, but I have to use my daughter's hair ties to hold down the excess belt. I found the 4 bottle version locally & tried on the medium & it fits me. As I still am losing weight as I train for a full marathon, going with the medium makes sense for me.

I'm a heavy-set 6'1" and I got the XL. They fit my waist fine, but are long on me. I think the L would probably have been better for me, so I think your son will do fine with the Med.

Correct, the 70 means 70 but the s/m is shorter so it sticks out farther (more depth) on your back whereas the m/l is longer with shorter depth. Deciding between the two depends on your back height. I'm 6'4" so for me the choice was obvious and I went with the m/l and it fits on my back well.

I have the same 6' and 220 lbs; INSEAM for leg length (mine is 31") is more likely the deciding factor - Sam (below) has LONG legs, shorter torso, which for all of us, affects our posture (comfort) whilst riding....I'm still researching as too much stretching forward can be uncomfortable.Also, whether the handle bars can be adjusted UP and DOWN, plus extended away, or back to the rider, makes a huge difference in long distance riding comfort.

The M and Medium options are the same helmet. I don't know about size differences 2013/2015, but they have likely not changed anything. The M/Medium works nicely for head circumference between 22" and 23".

i don't think it is, my partner is a big guy he said it was fine. i know what you mean though. i would suggest ordering it and if you don't like it just send it back. i think you will like it!

I'd say go smaller. I was right in between M and L and went with the M which fits perfectly.

Those sizes refer to torso sizing. In general the S/M fits torso sizes &lt; 19" and the M/L fits torso sizes &gt; 19". There is a video on the Osprey web site on how to measure your torso size.

I'm 36 and bought L and it was perfect for me!, maybe M should be ok for you...

Since this item costs a considerable amount, I'd go with the 158lb & up. It will take you a while to get used to them and you'll have them for years to come. My son is 6'2" and 147 pounds and wears/plays with his periodically and has no complaints. Plus, his heavier friends can use them without concern of overweight limits and breaking.

If you Google it you can find them after a bit of searching. If you're not a small guy, go for the largest size. We ordered that for our thin 15 year old son who is 5' 10" and would not have wanted it smaller. We returned the smaller size I ordered orginally, when I also recommended they add the dimensions to the website. Otherwise he loved it on his 9 day long high adventure Scout canoeing trip

I'm 5'10" with a 31" inseam. I got a 56cm but I really wish I bought a 54cm. This bike runs big. Feels more like a 58. The XL will most likely be way too big for you like the others have said. Awesome bike though! :D
