Ninette C Does this pack come in specific sizes for women? One size fits all is usually too big for me. I really need a pack that is a size small. If not sized, what do youthink about this pack for someone who needs a small?
LARRY F I can't answer the question as to if the pack is available in women's specific sizes. This is a small pack though and I would imagine it would be fine for a woman. it fits my 9 year old son just fine. Hope this helps.
GARY W The pack is very small, very very small. My 4'10 fiance uses the pack occasionally and has no problems with sizing.
JOHN W Hi Ninette, I suppose it depends on what you want to do with it. I'd say it's a pretty normal size backpack for books and gym clothes, but for a overnight pack, it would be small. A sleeping back would take up most of the main compartment. You'd still have the smaller, outer storage compartment. just putting a ruler over it as it is sitting on my desk, it's about 12" wide and 20" top to bottom.
JONATHON K Hello Ninette, This pack does look smaller in picture than it actually is. It does tighten down well with the side compression straps though. It is a taller more slender bag in shape. But from your comments and questions I would say it may be a bit big for you. I do love the bag though. I looked quite a while for a bag to fit what I wanted and I cannot say I am disappointed in the Redtail 30. It fits me great, straps are very confortable and it hugs your back well. I am 5' 10", 185 lbs if that give you a better idea. Good Luck and Happy New Year.
ROBERT D I'm not sure if they have a women's size but I can tell you that as far as this pack goes my girlfriend uses it and she loves the size. Shes about five ten and I'm a little over six feet tall and the pack is a perfect size for day hikes. I also use a 3 liter water reservoir in it (which I also bought from sunnysports) and it doesnt feel to bulky or heavy. Id say the overall size of the pack is a little smaller than a backpack that might be used for school. It would be a little tight to haul a bunch of textbooks. Keep ion mind that there are compression straps that will cinch up the bag when its not full. I hope this helped.
JEREMIAH D I'd say this bag is med-small. Though if your looking for a usable small bag, I would look up Arc'teryx Mantis. Little smaller and very well made.
ALIA J Hi Ninette,
Its definitely not small. its very long and even for me, a girl 5'8" it came pretty low down
DENIS P To me it's an ok size, I'm 6 foot, but a small person may think its large, any smaller and it wont fit what I need to take on a hike, it has compression straps to cinch it down, I personally like the pack, different sizes will change the carrying capacity, maybe go to a store to check out sizes.
