1. MAIN BENEFITS
We seek to design the best-possible solutions for mountain enthusiasts based on our philosophy of creat-
ing strong & light products. We understand our users' needs and provides the right features and benefits
for them to enjoy their adventures:
STRENGTH & DURABILITY
Our design team carefully analyses the exact func-
tions of each part of a backpack to define perfor-
mance requirements, select an optimum combina-
tion of materials and engineer the strongest gear
for the longest use.
LIGHTWEIGHT DESIGN
Our sophisticated design solutions use the best
materials to minimize weight. Lightweight fabrics,
buckles, straps and accessories also help keep
weight down.
GENERAL INFORMATION
OPTIMAL LOAD DISTRIBUTION
SALEWA trekking backpacks are fitted with our
DRY BACK CUSTOM system. Their easy-adjust torso
lengths, mean that even heavy loads can be carried
comfortably for long periods. For optimal load dis-
tribution, ensure that the carrying system is prop-
erly adjusted, including the load control straps. In
addition, make sure your pack is set up correctly,
both horizontally and vertically.
VENTILATION
Sweating cools down the body via evaporation.
Conventional backpacks stop this happening as
their back panels prevent the ventilation sweat
requires to evaporate. The wet back panels mean
you get chilled. All SALEWA backpack back panels
are designed to ensure good ventilation.

2. DRY BACK CARRYING SYSTEMS
SALEWA has three different DRY BACK systems.
Depending on size and area of use, our backpacks
are equipped with DRY BACK CONTACT, DRY BACK
AIR and DRY BACK CUSTOM. Our DRY BACK AIR sys-
tem maximizes ventilation and minimizes the back-
pack contact surface with the body. The DRY BACK
CONTACT system keeps the load barycentre of the
backpack close to the body for maximum control on
ascents and provides good ventilation through its
air channels. DRY BACK CUSTOM system allows to
easly adjust the backpanel for an individualised fit.
