Answer to: "I just purchased the Primero 70 and took it on its maiden voyage."

The North Face Primero 70 Backpack - 3950-4600cu in

June 9, 2009

I work in a gear store and this pack has me puzzled. I am 6'4 with a torso length of about 21", which normally puts me firmly in "large" or even XL territory for pack sizes. Not so with the Primero. I tried on a large and it was stupidly big! Adjusting the back length down significantly helped a little but whatever I did the lumbar pad was sitting on my tailbone and the back panel was rubbing against my shoulder blades. So I went and tried on a medium and found it much better. With the hip-belt and lumber pad in the right position, the back panel was in the right position and the shoulder straps were flush against my shoulders all the way round (which is a good indication of a good fit for any pack).

I don't know what data The North Face were using when they designed this pack. I cannot imagine there are many people who would require a "large" in this pack, seeing as a medium fit me with plenty of length left in the back (4-5 inches). I am sure that the sizing guide is incorrect. Anyone up to a 22" torso should look for a medium, I think.
