BACKPACK/TORSO LENGTH SIZES
Depending on pack volume and intended use the suspension system of a backpack becomes an essential feature. Defining torso length is not necessarily critical on a daypack but crucial on backpacking or alpine touring packs, as only perfect fit can warrant transfer of a bulk of the pack weight to the hips.
The center of the hipbelt ideally rests on the hip bone crest (pelvis) in order to bear the bulk of the load (refer to diagram) especially on large internal frame backpacks. But no rule without exceptions and sometimes a shorter torso length is better, for example in alpine or mountaineering situations where a short back allows easy access to the climbing harness.
How to measure torso length
Use a measuring tape to measure the distance between the top edge of the shoulders or C7 vertebrae (the one that protrudes when facing down) to the top crest of the hip bone (pelvis).
Backpack Suspension Size Ranges:
Medium (M) = 19 - 20.5 in / 48 - 52 cm
Long (L) = 21 - 23 in / 53 - 58 cm
Note: Even the most elaborate suspension system can only work perfectly when fitted correctly! And as no two backs are identical, we recommend testing backpacks with sample weights in an outdoor specialty shop.
SLEEPING BAG SIZING
EXPED sleeping bags come in different lengths and widths, depending on the style, to ensure a good fit for a variety of different users and body types.

United States United StatesComfortable but Forget Putting it Away
The mat is comfortable, no doubt about it. And it would be great for a permanent location. But forget, I mean forget! about ever putting it away. This mat CANNOT be deflated and stored back in its carry bag. I imagine at the factory they have some sort of industrial de-flating device that allows them to roll it up tight and put it in the provided carry bag. But YOU will never, ever be able to fully deflate it and put it in the carry sack (a thin, nylon sack). You can kinda/sorta roll it up but it will take up a lot of space. They even mention in the instructions to store it, fully inflated, in an out-of-the-way location in your house/spare bedroom. So definitely keep that in mind if you decide to buy one of these.
United StatesWorth It? Depends on Your Time & Patience
This mat is incredibly comfortable. In that regard, I see no way it could be more comfortable. The size is just right for car camping in my 2000 Toyota 4Runner, and just big enough for yourself and an SO, assuming you're comfortable with one another. Where this sleeping mat disappoints is in its deflating and its storage. Once you have it out of its pack sack, you might as well give up on ever fitting it back into it. It's more difficult than any pad, tent, or sleeping bag than I've ever used. Yes, my expectations are correct-- I know it's not geared towards tent campers and it's not meant to be stowed away and taken out every day. Secondly, good luck ever fully deflating the mat. I spend around 20 minutes every time attempting to get it nice and flat and eventually give up. No matter how I mess with the inflate/deflate valves, there's always air stuck in the mat. In summary, I'd recommend this comfy setup if you have the time and patience to deal with it afterwards.
