I am really happy with this backpack! I ordered a different brand prior and sent it back due to sizing issues. So I was a bit leery when Gregory's size chart showed I would be a size small (I'm 5'8".) To my surprise, the pack fits perfect! I love the side kick bag as I was in need of a hydration backpack anyways. I bought the Gregory compatible 3L hydration pack to go with it. The color is more muted than the website images, which I am really happy about. The bag is perfect for weekends or ev...en weeklong treks. All of the compartments are better than I could have imagined. A huge plus is the new version of the Deva fits an iPhoneX in the waterproof hip pocket. Stoked with this purchase. #sweepstakes
You'll be surprised by how capable the smallest Deva pack can be in so many situations. For short and long weekends, it's more than perfect, offering superior balance and carrying comfort for heavier extras like a climbing rack or a gourmet camp meal complete with a bottle of bubbly. The Deva is already a feature-rich pack, but Response A3 makes the difference - because when you combine shorter trips with Gregory's best suspension technology, you forget about what you're carrying and escape into the journey.
• Response A3 Suspension: Auto Angle Adjust (A3) hipbelts and shoulder harnesses adapt to your unique body geometry for a custom fit every time you shoulder the pack. This patented system allows both harnesses and both hipbelts to rotate independently of each other, delivering a dynamic yet stable ride that adapts to your body's movements over different terrain. Response A3 helps align your center of gravity over your walking path, saving energy you'd otherwise spend on stabilization. That little bit of energy saved adds up with every step, increasing your overall efficiency - and preserving your bliss - as the miles tick by
• 3D AIR Hipbelts and Shoulder Harnesses: Gregory's PreCurve technology and multi-density LifeSpan EVA foam construction combine to eliminate hotspots and relieve pressure in sensitive areas. The 3D AIR mesh wicks away moisture and distributes it throughout the woven surface, increasing overall comfort and allowing the hipbelts and shoulder harnesses to dry quickly during a well-earned trail break
• Wishbone Frame: A high-strength tubular aluminum frame defines the perimeter of the back panel, channeling the weight of the pack to the center of your lower back and around your hip structure. This design allows your upper body and hips to flex naturally while minimizing side-to-side sway as you hike, saving energy and keeping you more comfortable over longer distances. The frame also features anti-barreling support to prevent the pack from losing its shape and keeps the load close to your center of gravity
• Matrix Ventilated Backpanel: Ventilated structural foam wrapped in breathable mesh provides enhanced moisture management in a low-profile backpanel design. It offers excellent airflow while keeping the pack very close to your back for crucial energy savings while carrying heavier loads
• ComfortGrip: A soft-molded contoured pad ensures the weight of the pack transfers comfortably to your lower back and hips. Silicone grip overlays prevent the pad from slipping, keeping the hipbelt in position on your body's main load-bearing structure

how should I determine size for this item?
CHRIS P
You need to take a tape measure and determine your torso length. Once you have that, you can quickly determine the size you need.
My teenage daughter is 5'5" and her torso lenght was 17.75". Based on that, I bought her the Women's Small (S). It has been the best fitting pack she's ever had, and she loves it.
The manufacturer has an online sizing guide on their website that can be found on the top link returned after a quick search using 'gregory pack sizing chart'. Since I can't post the link in here, I'll copy the key portion for you here:
Measuring For Torso Length
Using a flexible tape measure or Gregory Fit-O-Matic, measure the length of your torso from the C7 vertebra (at the base of your neck) to the spot on the spine level with the top of the bony hip structure called the iliac crest. Do it two or three times to get an accurate measurement. If you are between frame sizes, always go with the smaller size.
Frame Sizes
XS: 14"-16" / 35-39 cm
S: 16"-18" / 40-44 cm
M: 18"-20" / 45-49 cm
L: 20"-22" / 50-54 cm

Hi Kristi,
I am not totally sure about your question. I was measured at REI for this pack. I have a very short torso (14 inches) and should be in a xs. I am not really petite just average. But the guy we got was very good. He took other things into consideration and put me in a small. I am very happy with my pack. Especially after trying on other packs. My first hike in it was a 7 mile hike in. It was great. No soreness anywhere. The back is very adjustable.
SunnySports has very good prices! I needed a real person to try on a real pack so went to REI first!

My wife is 4'11" and the extra small fit her like a glove she carried 50lb with no problems for her first hike.we bough a north face small and she struggled with 35lb on a 3 mile test flat hike.

I am not a very experienced backpacker. This is the first time I have bought a backpack so this may or may not help you. I went to the Gregory site and it instructed me on how to measure my back for the correct size of backpack to buy. It gave a chart so you can know which pack to buy. Also, I have been told that you should not carry any more weight than what is one third of your weight. For example, if you are 120# you should only have 40# in your pack. This size is perfect for me. If it were bigger, I would put more in it and carry too much, yet, it is large enough for me to pack a lot in it. Love the Gregory's suspension and comfort!

The Torso Fit Range would be the best way to determine your pack size. Enjoy it! Zack.

Why Did You Choose This?

I have had back surgery and wanted to be careful about potential harm to my back. I went the extra expense to get the Gregory suspension with the added feature that it moves with you when you twist and turn etc. It also takes most of the weight off your shoulders and places it more on your hips.
