PHD SLIM Width Bags – Any Users?

Interesting sizing. I have one of their DYO bags (review coming soon) in the standard width which is a circumference of 43". It fits me fine at 5'8 and 130ish lbs.

Hi Chris, thanks. 43″ seems super narrow for a bag. Is that the shoulder circumference? ID or OD? According to the BPL review of the Minim 400, PHD’s standard width is 67″ at shoulder OD.

Which bag did you DYO?

Thanks.

I have no idea, but I measured it at 31″ across the widest point which would give a ~62″ girth. I went through their DYO designer on the site and chose the ultralight model.

Thanks Chris, maybe in your first post you typoed and meant 63" instead of 43"?

I didn't.

This is from the DYO application:

Please select the width of your bag.

Standard = up to 109 cm (43")
Wide = up to 121 cm (48")
X-Wide = up to 135 cm (53")
Slim = up to 92 cm (36")

Ah, now I see where we are mis-firing. One measurement is the person's chest size 43" and the other is the bags circumference at widest point, 63". I've been referring to the bag, so a 43" bag circ. did not make sense. Thanks for the details, though.
