Story & heritage
Futura Pro 38 SL extends the Futura language into longer multi-day hikes; Deuter positions Futura Pro as the roomier, mesh-backed side of the series.
The SL version keeps the same trail logic while tuning the fit for shorter, slimmer backs.
Materials & craft
This backpack for longer multi-day hikes comes with our Aircomfort back system featuring our innovative VariClick 5-stage adjustable back length. Shoulder straps anchored directly to the frame deliver improved load transfer, while the padded hip fins distribute the weight evenly. Soft mesh extends down the full length of the back for maximum ventilation performance and a wrapping fit on smaller physiques.
The construction reads as practical Deuter engineering: back-system comfort first, then pockets, straps and access points tuned to the activity named on the official product page.
How to choose & style
Choose this piece by activity first: Deuter’s lines are clearest when the pack or bag is matched to hiking, trekking, biking, snow travel, family carrying or commuting rather than chosen by looks alone.
For colour, the most versatile Deuter choice is a dark or earth-tone body; brighter contrast colours make technical straps, zips and trail details easier to read.
