The reduced contact surface of the deuter Airstripes back system and airy, quick-drying Air Spacer Mesh against the back combined with perforated shoulder straps and hip fins ensure maximum airflow, even weight distribution, excellent comfort and a snug, secure fit on multi-day via ferrata (fixed-rope) routes. Loops on the shoulder straps keep via ferrata set carabiners close at hand. And thanks to a large front zipper opening and stretch side pockets, equipment and gear are always easy to access, or can be stashed in the separate bottom compartment.
What back system does it use?
Deuter Airstripes
Our unique Airstripes System takes care of that and offers effective ventilation. It consists of two contoured, air-channelled foam profiles that are covered with a highly breathable Wide AirMesh lining. The reduced contact surface results in an optimised fresh air circulation. Also, the pack’s load is kept close to the body and thus won’t throw the rider off balance.
THE RESULT:The minimal contact surface area of the profiled Airstripes allows free air circulation over 80 % of the back, while still providing a secure, compact fit.
SL WOMEN’S FIT
The SL back length is specific for women: on average, women have shorter backs than men. The carrying system in the SL model is therefore somewhat shorter than in the Deuter standard backpacks. In addition, the carrying system is specially adapted to the female anatomy.
