Tramping Backpack Fit Guide
This tramping backpack has a measured pack fit length of 38cm from the top strap area to the middle of the hip strap. It is best suited to walkers with a torso measurement of about 35 to 41cm. Users slightly outside this range may still find it suitable, depending on body shape, shoulder strap position, hip belt placement, and pack load.
The hip strap adjusts from about 83 to 165cm. For the most comfortable fit, this pack is best suited to hip measurements of about 88 to 160cm. This gives some adjustment room, so the hip strap is not used right at its smallest or largest limit.
How to Measure Yourself
- Torso length: Measure from the bony point at the base of your neck down to the top of your hip bones. If this measurement is around 35 to 41cm, this backpack should sit in its best fit range.
- Hip measurement: Measure around the top of your hips, not your trouser waist. If this measurement is around 88 to 160cm, the hip strap should have enough adjustment for a secure fit.
Fit Notes
- A torso length close to 38cm should give the most natural fit.
- Shorter torso users may find the pack sits slightly taller on the back.
- Longer torso users may find the hip strap sits slightly higher than ideal.
- The hip strap should sit around the top of your hip bones and help carry part of the pack weight.
- For best comfort, load the pack with realistic tramping gear before making final strap adjustments.
- Tighten the hip strap first, then adjust the shoulder straps so the pack sits close to your back.
