What is the Deuter Trail Pro 36L Backpack?
The Deuter Trail Pro 36L backpack is perfect for multi-day hikes and via Ferrata. It is designed for optimal load transfer, secure control, and excellent ventilation on challenging trails. This pack keeps your essentials organised and provides comfort and stability for your outdoor adventures.
What is it made of?
The Deuter Trail Pro 36L backpack is crafted from 600D PES REC BS polyester, renowned for its tear and abrasion resistance. The material ensures durability in the face of rugged terrains and harsh conditions.
The 600D denier rating signifies a robust yarn weight of 600 grams per 9000 meters, ensuring longevity and reliability on every adventure. Complementing this is the 210D PA REC BS polyamide fabric, prized for its exceptional durability and elasticity. Despite its lighter weight, the 210D denier rating of 210 ensures the fabric maintains its strength, making it ideal for areas prone to wear and tear. The polyamide fibres offer high abrasion resistance.
Both materials feature REC BS technology. REC stands for recycling, indicating that they are made from recycled sources, contributing to environmental conservation by reducing waste. BS stands for Bluesign, a certification system that ensures that the production process meets stringent environmental and safety standards, promoting responsible practices in the textile industry.
What type of back system is used?
The Deuter Trail Pro 36 Hiking Backpack comes with the Deuter Airstripes back system, designed for maximum ventilation and comfort during high-intensity outdoor activities.
The Airstripes is engineered with minimal back contact, which allows air to circulate freely between the backpack and the wearer's back. This design significantly reduces sweating by ensuring that only about 5% of the backpack is in contact with your back at any time, allowing maximum airflow.
The back panel is lined with airy, quick-drying Air Spacer mesh. This material enhances breathability by allowing air to pass through, keeping the back cool and dry, even on long, strenuous hikes.
The shoulder straps and hip fins are perforated to enhance ventilation and comfort further. These perforations allow air to flow through, increasing the overall cooling effect of the back system. The hip fins are also snug, ensuring a secure fit that distributes weight evenly across the hips rather than the shoulders, making it easier to carry heavy loads.
The backpack is supported by a round profile frame made of permanently elastic spring steel. This frame provides stable tension for the back mesh and creates a ventilated space between the backpack and the wearer's back, adding to the comfort and airflow without compromising on the stability of the load.
What are its features?
The Deuter Trail Pro 36L features a Fixed-lid design that offers a stable fit and reliable storage at the top of the pack, which is suitable for quick-access essentials. The lid also includes a large, zippered compartment for convenient organisation of items you may need on the go.
To ensure easy access to all areas of the backpack, the Deuter Trail Pro 36L incorporates a Top Entry system and a two-way Front Zipper Closure. This dual-access design allows for traditional top-loading and front access, making it simple to reach items in the middle or bottom of the pack without unpacking everything above them.
The Deuter Trail Pro 36L excels in storage and organisation. At the top, the fixed lid includes a generously sized compartment, ideal for stowing quick-access items like maps, gloves, or snacks. This lid pocket is complemented by zippered hip pockets on each side, providing secure, easily reachable storage for smaller essentials that you may need mid-hike without halting progress.
Internally, the pack features a stretch pocket, perfect for carrying extra clothing layers or other necessary items. A valuables pocket with a detachable key clip adds a dedicated spot for securing keys and small, essential items. The external front stretch mesh pocket offers a space to store wet clothing or rain gear, allowing these items to dry while keeping them separate from other pack contents.
The pack also includes a zippered side pocket for storing items like maps or trail guides and a stretch side pocket that accommodates water bottles or other frequently used equipment.
For technical terrain, the Trail Pro 36L provides specialised docking loops for attaching a helmet holder (available as an accessory) and secure attachment points for trekking poles and ice axes.
Additionally, the backpack is hydration-compatible. It is designed to hold a 3L water bladder in a dedicated sleeve, keeping it easily accessible on long journeys.
The thoughtfully included SOS label inside the pack offers essential emergency information, further enhancing the Trail Pro 36L's preparedness for technical outdoor adventures.
To maintain stability and reduce pack volume, the Deuter Trail Pro 36L includes stabiliser straps on both the hip fins and shoulder straps. They allow for precision adjustment, ensuring the pack's load stays close to the back, providing better control and balance, especially on challenging terrain. The hip fins also utilise a pull-forward system for easy adjustment, even with a full load.
This backpack has a detachable rain cover for weather protection. This cover shields the pack from rain and keeps gear dry during wet conditions, but you can remove them when not needed, saving weight and packing space on dry days.
