What do you do if you need the torso length of a Medium (20.5 inches) but the hip belt of a small (29 inches)?

I tried the medium, but it kept sliding off my 30 inch hips, so I ordered the small. The small, however is too short and I have to heave all the weight onto my shoulders to get a decent fit. It's not exactly the first backpack with this problem, but it's the only one that isn't designed by a schizoid migrane sufferer with too many crayons at hand. I already bought a Macpac which doesn't fit me either so on monday morning I'll be buying ANOTHER Naos 70, this time in size medium, so I can switch the hipbelts and perhaps get some kind of fit. Who knows what I'll do with the size small pack with the medium hipbelt, sell it to 10 year old sumo wrestler maybe. If you're not going to carry very heavy loads, I'd recommend a Crux AK70 (crux.uk.com). It's a great pack.
