No doubt, humans vary is shape and proportion. And it's true that designers create bags to suit the most common shapes of customers. Yet good quality bags also include a range of adjustments.
A big part of the challenge is in adjusting those adjustments in the right order and to the right locations/lengths. What seems intuitive and comfortable at first might be horrible by the end of the day. A related issue is in how you pack the bag in terms of where it's center of gravity ends up. At a backpack fitting at REI, I learned I'd been packing & adjusting my pack in the entirely wrong way!
Thus, you may already have a usable bag that just needs a little care in packing and adjusting. Perhaps a bit of research or going to a dedicated camping/hiking-related store might give you some insights into how to maximize long-term hiking comfort.
Good luck & happy hiking!
