I see that this vest gets great reviews but that there are also women's running vests also by Nathan. I am pretty tall (5'11") and medium-framed. Is the women's a better choice for me or would the regular be better given my height?

From what I understand, the women's running vests by Nathan are relatively new. I will say that don't know much about them. Regardless of which one you choose, you are definitely in the right place as this is the best running vest product on the market hands down in my opinion.I will say that I am 5'5" and while the pack fits me well, it would be a perfect fit on your frame. I've been at several trail races and numerous ultramarathons in the past year, and this is a very popular pack for both men and women alike. I think you'll be very happy with this race vest, but I couldn't say if you'd like one more than the other. Hope this helps!
