Deuter Guide 42 SL Women's Backpack
On your back, ready, go. The new Guide is not only lighter than its predecessor but also cleverly thought out. With the frontal access, you can get to your equipment quickly without losing any time on your tour.
Deuter Guide backpacks are known for being able to take whatever you throw at them. They're sleek, light and still as tough as they come. This version of the Guide is designed specifically for women, focusing on providing the highest levels of comfort and breathability without adding excessive weight. The female-specific design of this pack allows it to fit the natural contours of the female back, therefore providing a better overall experience. To ensure a stable balance and to conserve energy when carrying medium to heavy loads in alpine terrain, the Alpine Back System keeps the load close to the body's centre of gravity. The soft stripe pads on these slim-line alpine backpacks adapt to the wearers' back with every movement for a close and reliable fit. The channel between the pads provides extra comfort by creating a "chimney" effect of ventilation. For maximum stability and carrying comfort, the backpack is fitted around the V-frame system which delivers a curved profile for exceptional flexibility and weight carrying ability. Deuter's Vari Flex system certainly defines the flexibility of this carrying system. The pivoting hip fins follow complex body movements, therefore the loads can be evenly distributed to the hips, providing freedom of movement and reduced fatigue. For increased comfort, a sternum strap fits across the chest to help stabilise the pack, whilst a removable padded mesh hip belt provides more carrying comfort.
The pack features various sized pockets for all your essential needs! The main compartment is perfect for storing all your gear, while the side zip opening offers easy access when needed. A special pocket on the inside of the pack is perfect for storing valuables, whilst the stretch compartment inside is useful for separating dirty/wet clothes. The pack features an adjustable lid for additional space, whilst attachment loops are perfect for storing accessories such as a helmet, ice axe, hiking poles, and skis. When your backpack is full to the brim, don't worry as the connect compressions straps on the front of the pack provides even more space to attach additional equipment! For hydration on the go, the backpack is compatible with 3L bladders, which offer you water when needed. Safety is key when out trekking in the wilderness, so don't worry as the pack has you covered with an SOS label which provides the most important tips in case of an emergency. This pack offers everything you need, even a removable foam sitting mat which offers cushioning when taking a pit stop. The Guide is one of the most versatile packs, with the flexibility to cope with every mountaineering scenario whether you're touring, climbing or tackling alpine summits.
