Hey. I'm a big guy (6'5", 300 lbs, 42" waist, big, long torso). Any other big guys out there have experience with this? How's the fit? I'm thinking about retiring my "vintage" external frame pack--which I've customized a great deal to make it fit comfortably. I'm looking at a variety of 80-90L internal frame packs.

Any feedback is greatly appreciated!

These packs have a great fit and the internal frame can be moulded to your torso. You will certainly need the "long or tall" model for your frame. These are some very comfortable packs. Technology used in these newer packs will amaze you compared to your "vintage" pack. You can't go wrong with buying Arc'teryx.
