I'm 5ft7 and use a Patagonia Refugio 30L and it is extremely comfortable to carry. The latest model has bungee cords on the front that could easily be removed to make it look less casual.

Update: After a lot of research I decided that the Osprey Nebula was too big for what I would be using it for day to day. A lot of comments even made me consider going into the 18-24L range but ultimately my choice came down to the Osprey Quasar and the Patagonia Refugio. I really enjoyed the fit an

I only travel once a year, but I just took a 7 day domestic trip using the Patagonia Refugio 30L backpack. I had 3 days worth of clothes, a jacket and an extra pair of shoes in the laptop compartment, toiletries, makeup, and a bulky round brush type hair dryer. It as a snug fit. I should have left t
