Alproof Tour 36+5 SL and 38+5
€1,350 on deuter.com
The SL designation on the 36+5 pack stands for women’s fit: narrower shoulders, shorter back and wider hips. According to Deuter’s fit guide, this pack is suitable for women who stand between 160 and 175cm tall. If you’re taller, you might want to check out the 38+5 model.
Aside from the Alpride E2 avalanche airbag system, this pack is distinguished by Deuter’s Alpine carrying system, making it one of the most comfortable, form-fitting packs in its category. Another perk is the plus-5 liters of extra capacity, achieved with a roll-top extension. If you’ve ever struggled to fit that last bit of gear into your pack before a big mission, you’ll know how crucial those last few liters can be.
With equipment loops, an ice axe attachment and multiple ski carry options, the Alproof Tour is built to handle technically demanding adventures in the high alpine.
