deuter Gröden 30l SL Backpack Women seagreen ink
Product description
If the Zugspitze is not enough for you, you will find more space with the Gröden. This hiking backpack in the classic design of 1984 offers today all modern conveniences and functions.
The revival of a classic! It was even there when Deuter revolutionised the backpack market in 1984 when introducing the first fully-ventilated back for hiking backpacks - with its much imitated Aircomfort system. Its classic look reminds us of the good old days, but with modern functions.
euter has completely dispensed with PFAS in production since mid-2019. This is because the effect of these chemicals, which are actually very useful, is extremely harmful to the environment. Treated products such as clothing, cookware or paper coatings release perfluorinated and polyfluorinated particles during production, use and disposal. Once they are released into the environment, they spread quickly and widely in nature through wind and water. Research has detected PFAS chemicals even in remote areas of the Himalayas and Antarctica. In soil and drinking water as well as in the blood or breast milk of humans and animals, even in the bodies of Arctic polar bears. As they are particularly long-lived and non-recoverable, they continue to accumulate. This is why they are also referred to as “eternal chemicals”.
The fact that deuter has been able to do without PFAS since mid-2019 is thanks to an environmentally friendly, biodegradable impregnation. It effectively repels water, coffee and other common liquids and is ideal for high-performance outdoor and outerwear fabrics. The new finish consists of 60% renewable raw materials from various plant-based, non-genetically modified sources. No plant-based components from food production are used. This makes deuter's alternative to PFAS compliant with the regulations of the Zero Discharge of Hazardous Chemicals (ZDHC) and is bluesign® approved.
On small to medium backpacks that are at home in easier terrain deuter goes for maximum ventilaton. The heart of the Aircomfort systems – tested and proven for decades – is its flexible spring steel frame. It is extremely durable, provides stable tension for the airy back mesh and creates the ventilation space between pack and wearer’s back for the moist, warm air to dissipate. 1984 deuter invented & patented the first mesh back system worldwide. THE RESULT: Less perspiration thanks to the maximum ventilation achieved by the Aircomfort mesh construction. This reduces circulatory stress for more endurance.
This model is also available in the SL version. The SL back length is specific for women: on average, women have shorter backs than men. The carrying system in the SL model is therefore somewhat shorter than in the Deuter standard backpacks. In addition, the carrying system is specially adapted to the female anatomy.
