Best pack for the vertically challenged

[Goodelife]

I’m 5’5 and I am wondering what other vertically challenged guys are using for your packs? I’d like a frame style that I can swap bags on. Kifaru, Kuiu, etc. Main use will be backpack camping and hauling out meat quarters. Whats the best you’ve found?

Exo or stone glaciers new short frame. The EXO k4 is perfered though. I’m 5’7”.

I'm 5'8 and using an exo with 25" frame I'm sure the 22" or 23-1/2" would work

I’m 5’7 and have had good luck with the EXO 25” frame and the SG Krux. My lady is 5’6 and loves the EXS frame.

I can imagine the kifaru 22” would work well, I believe that’s for people below 5’8”. Mystery ranch have some very adjustable frames as well. I’m taller, but I have a short torso and I like the mystery ranch stuff myself.

Of course the best option is going to be to try each pack on with some weight in it.

EXO small or extra small would be my recommendation. Call the office and talk with them, and they will get you squared away.
