A NEW GENERATION OF BREATHABLE BACKPACKS

 

A NEW GENERATION OF BACKPACKS

 

Mountain activities involve carrying a pack on steep ascents and in hot conditions. You sweat as your body works to lower its temperature. This can leave you uncomfortable, with your back and shoulders drenched in perspiration and at risk of overcooling. While functional apparel has good solutionsw to manage perspiration transport, existing backpack solutions are not efficient enough yet.

DRY BACK

Enhanced air circulation system

Salewa has developed a new generation of backpacks that ensure a better result. Their carrying systems keep the load close to your body, yet ensure that your back remains dry. Salewa's R&D team have developed completely new reduced contact surfaces, technical constructions and breathable materials. The minimized body contact and enhanced airflow for increased ventilation enables a reduction of 1,5 degrees Celsius in body temperature under identical conditions.

RANDONNÉE

The Randonnée is a versatile backpack built to perform on winter enchaînements and alpine traverses. Winter mountaineering is exciting and beautiful, but skinning up long ascents or climbing while carrying a pack causes the body to perspire as it works to lower its temperature. This can leave your back and shoulders soaked with sweat and at risk of overcooling, especially if temperatures drop or the wind picks up when belaying or during descents. Our Contact Flow Fit carrying system provides a ground-breaking solution to this problem. It allows higher perspiration per cm² than conventional constructions and lowers the temperature in the central back area by 1.6°C after 15 minutes.

The slope is steep, the ground uneven and the load heavy. The only noises are your footsteps on the trail, the silence of your thoughts and the far-off sound of the wind whistling through the peaks. Your number one ally for taking your mind off the strain on multi-day treks is a correctly adjusted backpack. We will explain how to adjust your backpack to achieve the perfect balance with 70% of the load on your hips and 30% on your shoulders.
