MEN
For men, use the waist size of your pants and add 2 inches. The “HIPBELT SIZE” option above includes numbered measurements. The number you calculated (waist size + 2) will determine the size you need. If you are on the outer edge of a size, order the next size up! Example: If you wear a size 36 pant, add 2 to get 38. Since 38 is the last number of the Medium Hipbelt and the first number of the Large Hipbelt, you would want to order a Large.
WOMEN
For most women, measure the smallest part of your waist and add 5 inches. If you are straighter through the hips, add 3 inches instead of 5. The “HIPBELT SIZE” option above includes numbered measurements. The number you calculated (waist size + 5) will determine the size you need. If you are on the outer edge of a size, order the next size up! Example: If your waist size is 26, add 5 to get 31. You would need a Small hipbelt.
Torso measurement is the best guide we have for proper pack fit, but it isn’t foolproof. Generally we find that if you are between sizes on the torso it’s best to go with the smaller size, if you are between sizes on the hipbelt it’s best to go with the larger size.
To accurately measure your torso length for a correct pack fit, grab a buddy and follow the steps below…
| PACK SIZE | TORSO LENGTH | HIKER’S HEIGHT |
|---|---|---|
| SMALL | 38cm-47cm | UNDER 5’6″ |
| MEDIUM | 47cm–53cm | 5’6″ TO 6’0″ |
| LARGE | 53cm – 61cm | 5’10’ TO 6’4″ |
| X-LARGE | 61cm + | OVER 6’4″ |
