Designed for female skiers who enjoy ski touring in technical terrain, the Deuter FREESCAPE TOUR 38 SL is a unisex backpack tailored for challenging mountain traverses. Its LiteSnow back system, featuring EVA foam padding covered in Spandex, keeps your back dry in snowy conditions while ensuring a stable fit. The SL Women’s Fit, with a shorter back panel, narrower shoulder straps, and tapered stabilizers, is specifically tailored to the female anatomy without compromising high-altitude performance.

A carrying system designed for the most demanding winter backpacks

The FREESCAPE TOUR 38 SL features a flexible Delrin® U-frame that provides structural support while absorbing the stresses of rugged terrain. The ergonomic, padded hip belt features a zippered pocket, a gear loop, and a slot for an ice clip, providing quick access to essential accessories without having to remove the pack. Load-adjustment straps and an adjustable chest strap with a signal whistle complete a carrying system designed to stay in place during strenuous ascents. The back length is adjustable from 38 to 48 cm, allowing the pack to be adapted to different body types.

Organization and Alpine Attachments of the FREESCAPE TOUR 38 SL

Access to the contents is via a roll-top closure at the top or a U-shaped zipper at the back, which is convenient for reaching avalanche gear stored in the dedicated front compartment. The height-adjustable, detachable lid adapts to varying load capacities. For carrying climbing gear, the pack features side and A-frame ski loops, ice axe loops on both sides, and a rope attachment strap. The retractable mesh helmet holder frees up space when not in use. A side pocket, a zippered front pocket, and a goggle storage system on the shoulder strap round out the everyday organization.

Sustainable Materials and Hydration Compatibility

The main fabric, made of 630D recycled nylon, and the reinforcements, made of 420D recycled nylon, ensure abrasion resistance suitable for outings on rocky and snowy terrain. The bluesign®-certified 235D recycled polyamide used for the lining is PFAS-free, made from 100% recycled materials, and certified by Green Button and ClimatePartner. The pack is also compatible with a hydration bladder holding up to 3 liters, which is useful during long traverses. Weighing 1,130 g with dimensions of 68 x 32 x 22 cm, it strikes a balance between capacity, durability, and lightness for technical days in the mountains.
