For walkers with larger bodies (including the 25% of women who are a size 18 or above), the arrival of the outdoor industry's first dedicated plus size pack collection will be met with a sigh of relief, says Steph Wetherell. Here she checks out the Amber Plus Size 44, a mid-capacity women's model that would do for a heavily-laden day or a lightweight overnight.
In my experience Osprey packs are very generous with the strap lengths (not sure this applies to smaller back lengths? Mine was a large). But I could fit me and my GF inside the waist strap, so I imagine it must be pretty decent for plus sized persons.
