Deuter Futura Pro 34 SL Pack For Women
Deuter Futura Pro 34 Pack
By Karenna Awtry
Do your hiking goals have you reaching for new heights? If so, Deuter’s Futura Pro 34 will get you — and your equipment — there.
Whether you’re shopping for a dependable overnight backpack or looking for a pack that will ride with stability as you’re scaling to the top of the mountains, the Future Pro 34 SL is a pack made to give a woman gender-specific, body-hugging fit and all the perks of a high-quality Deuter backpack.
Deuter packs for women (these are the SL labeled packs) offer a more slim fit. The design is narrow, the shoulder straps are shorter and the torso lengths are generally not as long as those you’d find on a unisex pack.
The SL back packs are smaller, but they don’t skimp on comfort or options. The women’s Futura Pro 34 sports Deuter’s patented Aircomfort Pro suspension, a popular feature that does more than keep the back panel off your back, it actually works to move air so that you stay cool and dry. As warm air is forced from the pocket between your back and the backpack, fresh air flows in. The continuous circulation is hard to beat — and it keeps your body’s overall temperature at a safer level when you’re moving fast and hard.
The Futura Pro 34’s hipbelt has its own unique features. The padding is enhanced with a pivoting system (known as Veri Flex) that moves at the center of your lower back while hugging the body.
This backpack moves with you so easily, you’ll hardly notice it’s there. It’s also incredibly stable — an important feature when you’re headed toward a summit or scrambling across boulders and need to maintain your balance at all costs.
Keep your gear meticulously organized with 8 separate compartments in addition to the divided main compartment. Storage options on this Deuter women’s pack include a top lid pocket, side bellow pockets, side mesh pockets, a front stash pocket, and interior pocket for small valuable items, a hydration-compatible sleeve for your water bladder and external ice axe or trekking pole loops.
You’ll want for naught when it comes to storage offerings, up to 30 lbs. of the gear you need, right where you need it.. Stabilizer and compression straps keep everything in place from start to finish of your adventure.
The Futura Pro 34 SL comes in two attractive color combinations: the subdued pine/bamboo and the flashier lava/orange.
Users of this backpack give it props for comfort, easy load, airflow, padding and how well it allows for movement. It’s best recommended for day hikes, light loads, overnighters, travel and wet weather. It also gets praise as a backcountry skier’s pack.
