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.

SALEWA WINTER TRAIN BACKPACK IS ISPO AWARD GOLD WINNER
We’ve been designing backpacks for over 70 years at SALEWA. In recent years, Giordano Vechiet, Manuele Cola, Mario Malarcsek and Alessandro Notario have been working hard on new concepts at our R&D department. A few years back, we started working on a new carrying concept for fast-moving mountain training activities. It had innovative Split Shoulder Straps and the Twin Compression System.
HOW TO CORRECTLY ADJUST YOUR BACKPACK FOR MOUNTAIN TREKS
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.
