Seems like everything is made for fat bodies now a days, no offense to anyone here. Looks like I'll have to do the same "mod" on my pack. I bought a new down jacket in size medium the other day and there's a good 5 inches in space if I pull the front away from my belly.  [bacon]

[laugh]  I think you're on to something.

Dainese, Italian. Skinny folk usually.

US, hrrrm.   [roll]  more comfortable.  [cheeky]  I think I'll do some sit-ups now.  :-[

just an offside question, is that oven 220v or 110v?

They don't really make full size ovens in 110, just toasters and such.

I'm 6'4" with a 44 inch chest, how do you think it is for ME to find stuff that fits!  When i try on packs with hip bands they usually wrap right around my lower stomach instead of my hips.  I only have a 34" inseam so I'm all torso.

I have the same issues. I'm 5' 11" but have a 30 in inseam. The Kreiga fits well.

Anyone here have experiences with this kriega R25 while wearing a jacket with a hump on the back? More specifically, a Dainese Del Mar?

I want to pick this one up but most of the backpacks I've tried feels very uncomfortable because of the hump on the back of my jacket. How low does the top of the R25 hang from the back of your neck?

great gear choice!  im running the same setup.  Obviously the pack is gonna stick out a little further than normal but its definitely not as awkward as a normal strapped backpack. 

I think the sheer amount of adjustment that is capable this this bag helps it fit better with jackets that have humps. 

I will try to post some pix tomorrow with it on.

  [thumbsup] Glad i could help! It's really an amazing pack... It really helps to love the gear you have because then you are even more likely to wear it.  Not that i would ever consider going out without any gear on.
