I have the stratos 24 in size large and it fits great (I'm 6'3" 230lbs). This is my favorite day pack not only for hot weather, but in cold weather as well. I have gone down a few mountains Bear Grylls style and this pack can take a beating, very durable. Just don't excede the 25lb weight limit or the aluminum stays will start to dig into your hips. Also the straight jacket compression works great to cinch down your load or to carry snow shoes when not in use. Great pack overall, I'm hooked on Osprey. I own packs from Arcteryx and the North Face, but I will stick with osprey from now on!
