1.Laugh at my lack of observation skills
2. Laugh a little more at the irony I'm going into marketing
3. Read below please

I bought a Deuter traveller 55+10L backpack SL, discovering later it was designed for women, although I did read it could be used for guys with a shorter build anyways. Basically I'm not that short but a shortish guy (175-ish)cm?

I have no problems it being a Women's backpack, but basically because of its narrower/smaller shoulder-straps is it going to cause me problems while trekking? (my shoulders are a bit more broad than normal for my stature) I've tried it on (unloaded) etc and it seems to be pretty fine

but I was wanting to know what you fair and fellow travellers thought about this? and wanted to grab some advice if I could please

The menacing campaigns that drive the NY Escort corporate spyware and adware market is developing way out of hand. Who are these companies and how do they NY Escorts get away with it? They are costing computer users millions with their sneakware system of promotional crap!We have NY Asian Escorts some serious problems. These narcissistic bugger programmers that develop application and browser hijackers, pop-up pushers, adware scams NY Asian Escort and other bogus blots of code that only make life worse, need to be taught a lesson or two.

Alright mate, I trekked 700Kms over the summer, and learnt the hard way. Best to have a well fitting bag however if your not walking to far its fine, also if you want to us it travel light.

Hey Marshall, I work in an outdoors shop and we sell deuter packs, it's really just what's comfortable for you, I've had a guy come into the shop who was built like a gorilla and he was quite happy with the exact same pack you've bought, if it's uncomfortable, head down to the shop and talk to them you can order a set of standard shoulder straps (and a hip belt if that's not doing it for you too) from Deuter (I'm in New Zealand, so I couldn't tell you what the price would be sorry). Take it for an overnight trip, if it's working ok then roll with it.
Hope that helps
Andrew
