Why We Love the Deuter Guide SL 28L Backpack
When it comes to conquering summits, the Deuter Guide SL 28L Backpack is our go-to choice. Designed specifically for alpine adventures, this backpack features an innovative harness system that contours to our bodies, providing unbeatable ventilation, a chafe-free experience, and all-day comfort on long approaches. Plus, the convenient hip belt stows away, ensuring easy access to our harness when we need it most.
With the U- and X-frames in place, we can confidently carry our load while experiencing optimal stability and support. The compression system allows us to securely pack in our gear, keeping everything close at hand.
