My 9- and 11-year-old use this pack for our hiking adventures, and the fit could not have been more perfect for both of them with how easily the straps are adjusted. I love that these are designed to be age appropriate, have plenty of room for their gear without being so big that they overfill, and have plenty of room for the treasures they inevitably find on our adventures.
