I'm a relatively short (5'6" on a good day) male backpacker and have tried a variety of packs over the years, including expensive Gregory's. For a short torso, I've never found a better value -- good fit, great features, relatively lightweight, and durable for a great price. Plenty of space for extended treks (I've done 7-12 day trips with this pack) and I really like the layout of the pockets and internal divides. It's my favorite pack.
