I'm 5'10 and find the Olympus seats ok. However, I think the padding is too thin, and extra padding around lumbar and below glute posterior areas in particular would help, because this seat has a tendency to concentrate body weight in those particular spots when in sleep position. Just the wings on the headrest doesn't help, because it the neck and spine tend to twist.
