Womens specific backpack
My OH has been looking around for a new bike specific backpack - Just wondered if anyone can suggest/recommend any she could try?
The 'problem' (not that it bothers me
) is that she's 5'10" tall, so tends to find that some womens specific packs, like Camelbak, are designed for shorter women. She's tried some of my vast archive of Camelbaks etc., but the straps are unsurprisingly not suited to her female anatomy! She's currently got an ancient North Face fem-specific bike pack, but now we're going out on longer rides in all sorts of weather, she'd really like something that'll hold more gear, cake & sweeties for all-weather epics (pref. also with space to stuff some knee pads).........Not asking much eh?! 
If anyone can suggest any suitable packs she could try, that'd be much appreciated.
TIA

It has a 3L bladder, and space even when that is full for other kit inside the bag... I can fit my first aid kit, spare tube, repair kit, multitool, chaintool, tyre levers, pump, cable ties, headtorch, a small fleece, lightweight jacket, camera and lunch with a few snacks into mine. There are straps/flaps on the outside for carrying helmets and armour that tuck away when not being used.
Maybe that's a little bigger than you're looking for, but I'd definitely recommend trying one of the dakine ones.
However I currently have an osprey raptor pack which is great. A bit pricier than other brands but really well made with some sweet little features (lid lock), an awesome sweat reducing ventilated back pannel and lots of different pockets and compartments. Although it's not a ladies spec it fits great and you can forget its there after a while, I'm quite small 5'3 and usually need the girly stuff but due to the amount of adjustments you can make them fit perfectly. Mine will only hold the essentials - tools tube and waterproof, but they come in a few different sizes so I'm sure you could find one to fit everything.
Sales pitch over, let us know what you go for in the end.
Just had a look at the Dakine website and was pleasantly surprised by the range - I've mailed her the Osprey & Dakine websites so she can have a gander.
Thanks again.
Anyways, thanks again for the suggestions.
