I'm a small framed woman, 5'1", 128 lbs. Will this backpack be too large for me?

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.

Hard to say - the pack is 18-1/2 inches in length, but would hang down further when the straps are over your shoulder. I find it one of the most comfortable packs I've owned even when I have camera, lens, iPad, water. It is more narrow than most packs. But, I am 6'1".

It does have adjustable straps. I would say it is on the edge of being too big for you. Take the risk, amazon has returns. It is a great bag.

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.

I can't tell you for sure because I didn't keep it - but I returned it because it was so large. I think it would fit because I remember it being a very large pack. It seemed larger than an average backpack to me.

I wouldn't be surprise if it doesn't fit you. I am much small frame and it fits perfectly.

I am pretty much the same size and the pack fits just fine for me. Shouldn't be a problem.

Hi A220. You may find the Ergo a little large. There are quite a few adjustment options. The height of the connection between the shoulder straps can be adjusted (up and down the middle upper back). I found that I wished this would actually slide down lower. In terms of strap length - you could definitely tighten all around to suit your smaller frame. FYI I am 5'7" and around 145lbs. I would still recommend. I have read from other reviews of plenty of women 5'0" wearing them. Even after a long walk, I can feel tired carrying my little one. I think it's just the nature of carriers. Still far less if I had carried her for same distance &#128512;

This is a very nice backpack, but you might find it a bit small. I am 5'11" and 195 lbs. It fits me comfortably, but it doesn't cover more than about 2/3 of my back, and the waist strap has just a few inches to spare. If you live near a BBuy, you might want to check out the Canon Deluxe Photo Backpack 200EG [ASIN: B00009R6TA Canon Deluxe Photo Backpack 200EG]. That bag's dimensions are nearly identical to this one's. If that one's big enough for you, this one will be, too.

Yes . That is exactly the way I wear it and I am a small person. I do not use it for biking. I have a old small bag and decided to buy this custom new small size bag which is a little bit larger having more room which is great for traveling and walking around. I picked the colors so it took a couple extra days to get. I do love it and glad that I purchased my second bag from Timbuk2

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

It'll be too big. I'm 5'10" and 150 lbs and I'm going to need to cut and re-rivet the straps to have to make it fit right. There's simply too much material here for someone my size.

I would say no. I am 5'5", 130 with kind of broad shoulders and it is really too big for me.

It's not very big so i would assume it will fit you better than most standard sized backpacks. Quality is excellent for the money, better than some of the other high end names out there. I did switch back to a messenger bag for preference, but i would recommend this backpack to anyone that is looking for great features and quality for the price.

Hey, Devyn. Sorry for the delayed response! I don't think you'll have any problems with the fit. One of the great things about this pack is how much it can be adjusted. Not only can you tighten or loosen the chest and waist straps, but you can do the same for each of the shoulder straps. I just measured the pack, itself, and it comes in right around 15" lengthwise. If you want to get an idea of how it might sit, have a friend tape a piece of legal paper to the back of your shirt(preferably without the words "kick me" written on it). The pack will be marginally bigger both horizontally and vertically, but you'll at least get an idea of how much space it will take up while wearing it which might help you make a decision. Hope this helps; let me know how it works out for you!

No, I don't think so. It is plenty large enough for me but I am an average size woman.

It'll definitely fit. And is probably a good pack to get if you are going to want to travel for a while on a slightly smaller pack. I took this backpacking for a 10 weeks and it was great to not have a lot of stuff. Also, the pack is adjustable. You'll be fine.

You sound exactly like the type of person this backpack is designed for! It should work perfectly for you.

Hi Rebecca, It may not be small enough for a petite person, since it fits 2X users comfortably.Sorry
