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.
