Used but in great condition GoLite Jam 50 size small. No holes in any of the mesh pockets or the main body. Plenty of life left in this great pack. Chasing $40 + postage if applicable. Cheers.

Hi Matt,

Just wondering if you can tell me roughly what sized human this pack would fit? I'm 170cm tall (female) and not familiar with the brand so I'm trying to suss out whether it might work for me.

Thanks!

Dee

Backpacks go by torso length ... not height.

From
https://www.rei.com/product/793639/golite-jam-pack

The Small size would be for torso lengths of 17.5" and smaller.

For torso length measurement see https://www.rei.com/learn/expert-advice ... g-fit.html

That is exactly the advice I would have given you Dee^ If you're Perth based you're welcome to try the pack and if you're not you can pay for shipping to try it and return it if you don't think it's right (I will require full payment however and refund this afterwards if the pack is not suitable). Cheers.

Thanks! I’ll endeavour to find someone to measure my back and I’ll get back to you if it seems suitable.

Line yourself up on the edge of, say, the fridge. Use 2 fridge magnets to mark each height and then measure between them ..

Not as accurate as someone else doing it .. but I think you'll be well under.

I just measure my back myself with a dressmaker's measuring tape and have found it to be fine (based on multiple packs). You can always use a piece of string and measure that if you have a straight ruler or tape measure.
