The climate neutral, PFC free Guide SL strikes the perfect balance between light weight, comfort and functionality. The comfortable, well ventilated back system; snug fit that keeps the load close to your centre of gravity; ergonomic, detachable hip fins; hard-wearing materials; further improved attachment systems; and stowable rope strap all combine to generate fine-tuned load control and maximum freedom of movement on multi-day alpine projects. The J-shaped front zipped opening also provides quick access to the main compartment.
What back system does it use?
Deuter Alpine
For alpine backpacks the combination of comfort, durability, functionality and low weight is essential. deuter’s Alpine System answers this challenge by focusing on a compact, secure yet comfortable fit with its two flexible softstripe back pads that are perfectly adapted to the anatomy and follow the wearer’s movements. In combination with the pack’s sleek shape this keeps the load always close to the centre of gravity – thus guaranteeing full pack control.
THE RESULT: The Alpine back combines a secure, compact fit for full pack control and full focus on the terrain with a top carrying performance and a comfortable ventilation between the two softstripe back pads.
SL Womens 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.
