Eberlestock packs and tall people...

[ghostrider272]

Anyone else have issues with getting Eberlestock packs to fit well if you have a long torso? I’ve tried the X1 and the Big Trick and can’t get them to fit comfortably with 15-20 lbs of weight in them. They have some good ideas for feature. Didn’t know if it was just me...

Nope... I gave up on them years ago... decent product, just not if you are 6'-05"

EXO K3 tall frame is the most comfortable pack I've owned... I'm 6'3" with a long torso.

Thanks for the replies. Just confirms what I thought.

I literally was gonna start a thread on this. I'm 6' 1" with a stocky build (or heavy boned) as grandma would say, anyway I have 2 eberlestock packs and it's like carrying a gallon freezer bag with shoe strings. So uncomfortable. I've pulled both packs apart trying to move stuff and no luck. I'm thinking a k3 is in my future.

I have a Just One. I'm 6'4" 300 with a 60+ chest. It fits me. I just am not in love with the base weight of it. I'm looking at a frame pack system and will probably end up with Kifaru. I've emailed Stone Glacier on big mans fit and they didn't reply in 2 days. Others did ASAP. So much for customer service.

I have the blue widow pack. 6’ 2” and long torso. It isn’t very comfortable with more than 40#s. Looking into something else with a lower weight

No-I think this was my first truly wasted money years ago
