Test: deuter Speed Lite

Lightweight and sporty model able to accompany all hikers in fast climbing and hiking activities

The backpacks of the Speed Lite line are the lightest in deuter’s hiking series, making them ideal for dynamic hikers looking for a very lightweight and practical backpack for their adventures. In particular, the Speed Lite models have been specially designed to allow you to move with maximum freedom in any environment. We particularly appreciated the Lite back system combined with a sporty V shape and a Delrin frame that allow for good carrying comfort and excellent weight distribution on the padded belt. For personalized comfort, you can also easily adjust the chest strap, the adjustment straps and the lumbar fins thanks to the Pull-Forward system. Speed Lite 30 proved to be a very functional product from the first use thanks to its elasticized internal compartment useful for storing damp or wet clothes or for storing valuables. It is made of high-tech polyamide, a light fabric that significantly reduces its weight thanks to the finer yarn. The dense mesh weave makes the fabric extremely resistant and tearproof. Finally, this backpack is chemical-free thus reducing the use of environmentally harmful substances. The PFC used as a coating has water-repellent, dirt-repellent and anti-grease properties. The main fabric of this light hiking-backpack is 100 % recycled and bluesign certified.
