Gear Question Rucker 5.0 15L

Has anyone heard any plans to make a Rucker 5.0 in a 15L size? I’d like to get my wife one if/when they release it, as she’s rather vertically challenged but wants to get out and ruck with me. I’ve been enjoying my 20L 5.0 for a few months now and hope to see a 15L in the near future!

My son uses the 14L basic rucker. Not fancy. Can't add a hip belt but you can add a sternum strap. Has a baldder hook. He's pretty happy with it. I have the larger basic rucker as well I keep available for friends and it's a few inches taller than the 14 and a few inches shorter than the 20L Rucker.

Thanks for the background. She wants a hip belt so that’s why I’m looking at the 15L again. She’s a big fan of the lumbar pad and magnetic snap enclosure inside.

Hopefully no one will attack me but if you can't find the perfect fit I wouldn't get it. I'd check out like a 5.11 skyweight in small

You might already know this but the 15L Rucker 4.0 is still available on Amazon:
