THE NEW NOTHING

We are looking for original simplicity. Away from the masses, no phones, no Internet. In their place: snow-covered mountains, fine lines in fresh powdery snow and the feeling of unlimited freedom. Only by doing without can we see what REALLY MATTERS: Those unique moments with friends in the mountains, far away from the hustle and bustle. The days we share with them expand our horizons and satisfy our longing. This MINIMALISM brings us to places we’d only ever dreamt of. It brings us FREEDOM. Our new NAKED SHEEP series takes its inspiration from this thought and concentrates on what REALLY MATTERS: PROTECTION. COMFORT. LOW WEIGHT. No unnecessary features, no superfluous weight. Whether at icy summits, during exhausting ascents or long powder descents: Our NAKED SHEEP is light on mountain expeditions, but is no way lacking in protection. Because this is essential. Just because something is light, doesn’t mean it’s not ROBUST: Our ORTLER JACKET and ORTLER PANTS are proof of this. The new lightweights for alpinists can hold their own in any weather conditions. Just like for a naked sheep, merino wool takes a back seat here and is only used in certain areas. Our first WATERPROOF SWISSWOOL 2L jacket provides warmth. A functional membrane protects the light, warm wool. Of course we’ve also weighed the Tasmanian sheep: The TOFANA pants from the MERINO LIGHT SKIN series are ULTRA LIGHT, SOFT and unbelievably BREATHABLE. Focusing on what REALLY MATTERS is vital in emergency situations. That’s why we’ve made our avalanche probes and shovels even more INTUITIVE and EFFICIENT. It is only the combination of light material and functionality that allows us to move freely on the mountain. We look forward to the indescribable feeling of lightness and freedom on our mountains!

MOUNTAINWEAR At ORTOVOX, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been putting our trust in WOOL SINCE 1988. That is more than a quarter of a century of experience in working with the most functional of all natural fibers. From the first layer right through to the third, we take a holistic approach and do NOT PRODUCE ANY GARMENTS WITHOUT USING SHEEPâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S WOOL. Our expertise lies in the intelligent combination of this natural material with other innovative fabrics. With the resulting easy-wear system, we provide you with unique functionality and high wear comfort for all your mountain adventures. We discovered MERINO WOOL IN 1995, both for ourselves and for all mountaineers. Our wool comes from the natural paradise of Tasmania. We have counted on wool from the Swiss Alps for our unique Swisswool products for several years, collecting it directly from the source. Here, like everywhere else in the world, we exclusively cooperate with partners who share our ethics, values and sense of social responsibility. ANIMAL WELFARE and FAIR WORKING CONDITIONS are more important to us than raw commercialism.

MERINO NAKED SHEEP 3L ORTLER JACKET Alpine minimalism: Whether on icy north faces, during stormy ascents or severe snowfall on the summit – the ORTLER jacket and pants are our LIGHTWEIGHTS for Alpinists! For the MERINO NAKED SHEEP line we concentrated on the ESSENTIALS. LOW WEIGHT, PROTECTION and COMFORT. The products in this line are light but also robust and comfortable. Just like our naked sheep, here merino wool takes a back seat and is only used in certain areas for increased comfort. The Dermizax®NX membrane from Toray – the most high-performance membrane that we use – ensures the jacket is breathable, windproof and waterproof. • • • • • • • •

MERINO HARDSHELL 3L ALAGNA JACKET The flagship for all ski mountaineers just got more functional! On the inside, the DERMIZAX®NX MEMBRANE from the Japanese membrane manufacturer Toray is still providing a first-class service and impresses with the HIGHEST LEVEL OF BREATHABILITY (32.000 g/m² / 24 h) as well as the best protection against the elements. The OUTER MATERIAL is now made from a ROBUST, CLOSELY-KNITTED YARN, that features an improved beading effect to protect against wet and cold conditions. The newly-designed storm hood is dual adjustable and offers additional comfort through the use of FELTED WOOL around the chin area and on the inside of the pockets. The hook and loop cuffs on the sleeves are now softer and their range of adjustment provides optimal support. • • • •

MERINO GUARDIAN SHELL 3L JACKET MERINO GUARDIAN SHELL is, and remains, the benchmark in HARDSHELL COMFORT. The unique interplay of the HIGH-PERFORMANCE TORAY DERMIZAX®EV MEMBRANE with its BACKING MADE ENTIRELY FROM PURE MERINO WOOL allows for a unique wear comfort. In its second edition, our Freeride range is once again significantly LIGHTER. The avoidance of unnecessary features and the streamlining of materials has saved a whole 150 g in weight. At the same time, new processing technology has enabled much FLATTER and, consequently, LONGER-LASTING SEAMS. The various hook and loop fastener zones are softer and more durable. Wool inserts around the chin area, improved hood drawstrings and the ergonomic underarm ventilation INCREASE COMFORT, making our GUARDIAN SHELL even MORE FUNCTIONAL. • • • • • •

MERINO SHIELD SHELL CEVEDALE PANTS Our SHIELD SHELL collection belongs to the BEST PERFORMANCE-BASED PRODUCTS for tourers! The shell is completely WITHOUT A MEMBRANE. On the outside we use extremely ABRASION-RESISTANT CORDURA® (>80,000 abrasion cycles on the Martindale test), SUPER-ELASTIC Lycra (20 % stretch) and protect all of that from wet and dirt by means of a DWR finish. The THE FINEST MERINO FIBERS have been woven into the lining of this protective shell. This provides an unbelievable microclimate in which the fibers absorb the moisture and then transfer it outside, while at the same time regulating the temperature – something that is absolutely vital on long ski tours! SHIELD SHELL is the best compromise between BREATHABILITY and PROTECTION against the elements. • • •

MERINO NATURETEC LIGHT PIZ PALÜ JACKET For the second edition of our multi award-winning touring jacket we have used Pertex Quantum, an even better outer material. As usual, the PIZ PALÜ combines the technical softshell material MERINO NATURETEC LIGHT and the LIGHT WOOL INSULATION LINE SWISSWOOL LIGHT TEC. But now the protective wool on the arms and front are covered in an improved outer material. Pertex® Quantum® material makes use of yarn containing filaments that have a shape reminiscent of diamonds. The interlocking fibers provide the material with EXCELLENT SCUFF RESISTANCE, SOFTNESS and IMPROVED WATER-RESISTANT QUALITIES. As usual, NATURETEC LIGHT is used on the shoulders and back – in the exact place where the backpack sits. Merino wool on the inside ensures that the body does not become hypothermic and instead stays at the correct temperature. • SWISSWOOL® -- SUSTAINABLE RAW MATERIAL -- MOISTURE REGULATING (warm even when wet) -- IDEAL WEIGHT-TO-INSULATION RATIO -- OPTIMIZED PACK SIZE • PERTEX® QUANTUM® -- WIND AND WATER-RESISTANT (DWR finish) -- HIGHLY BREATHABLE -- LIGHTWEIGHT

PERTEX® QUANTUM® OUTER MATERIAL Is breathable, windproof, water-resistant and extremely scuff-resistant.

MERINO NATURETEC BACUN PANTS Comfort and functionality come together in this very unique material! The finest merino fibers in THE LINER ARE INTERWOVEN WITH THE POLYAMIDE SHELL. This yields outstanding BREATHABILITY even without a membrane, while the material’s tight weave ensures protection against wind and precipitation. The fine merino fibers provide PERFECT MOISTURE AND TEMPERATURE REGULATION. The natural fibers wick up moisture, transporting them to the fiber cores and then outwards so that the surface stays dry and comfortable on the skin. • • • • •

MERINO NATURETEC PLUS PORDOI JACKET Made for POWDER SLOPES, which want to be conquered AFTER HARD ASCENTS! For our PREMIUM SOFTSHELL we use only the best performance materials. Inside is the FINEST MERINO WOOL to form a foundation in comfort, before the new c_changeTM membrane by Schoeller comes into play. It is an ACTIVE MEMBRANE that reacts immediately to the build-up of sweat with special DAMP AND TEMPERATURE MANAGEMENT. When it’s cold, it closes itself – as soon as the body becomes too hot, it opens the pores in order to regulate the temperature and sweat production. The world outside controls the shell made from polyamide and elastane. This ensemble of fibers impresses with its ELASTICITY and ROBUSTNESS, and keeps damp and wind outside. Our wool DNA carries the Loden material, which is partiallyinserted and underlain with membrane outside. ORTOVOX is wool! • • •

Born of our pioneering spirit and shaped by our innovative strength, we introduced the first SWISSWOOL® products in 2011 – and simultaneously created a completely new segment of insulating wool products! It is characterized by the unbelievable functionality of the natural fibers and the sustainable, regional production and processing of the wool.

DID YOU KNOW? THE BENEFITS OF SWISSWOOL® COMPARED TO OTHER ALTERNATIVES ON THE MARKET OTHER WOOL INSULATION •• PIONEER: since 2011, we have developed SWISSWOOL® exclusively for use in mountain sports.

•• RICH VARIETY: four different fleece thicknesses for many different areas of use.

•• WOOL QUALITY: the wool of the Swiss alpine sheep is better suited to use in insulating products than any other type. It is coarser and therefore more durable with particularly high resilience. Insulating air pockets are better preserved.

•• DURABILITY: Polylactic acid granules are mixed evenly into the wool, melted using thermal treatment and bonded so that the fleece remains permanently stable. This results in high washability and durability. Other manufacturers simply spray adhesive onto the wool, which does

not bond the core and even limits moisture wicking. •• SHORT TRANSPORTATION ROUTES: fleece is entirely produced in Europe. •• E ASY TO CARE FOR: SWISSWOOL® is machine washable.

DOWN •• RESISTANT TO MOISTURE: SWISSWOOL® warms even when wet while providing a comfortable microclimate. •• ODOR: odor-forming bacteria are chemically bound by the wool fibers and therefore isolated.

•• DRYING TIME: dries quickly. •• COLD BRIDGES: Wool fleece is made up of complete layers that prevent the material from gathering in one place and creating cold bridges.

•• ANIMAL WELFARE: shearing is a natural process that does not particularly stress the animals. •• SPACE TO ROAM: the sheep enjoy expansive space to roam in their natural habitat.

POLYESTER •• WET: SWISSWOOL® warms even when wet. •• TEMPERATURE MANAGEMENT: Wool is comfortable at a broad range of temperatures and does not feel stuffy, even when very warm.

•• T HE PERFECT MICROCLIMATE: Wool can absorb up to 35% of its own weight in moisture without feeling wet to the touch. •• D IRECT RETENTION OF HEAT: no warming-up necessary.

•• SUSTAINABLE: SWISSWOOL® makes use of natural resources. •• REGIONALITY: every wool farmer can sell their wool to SWISSWOOL®.

MERINO FLEECE LIGHT HOODY Light in winter and pleasant in summer: Whether we’re climbing or on ski tours – we like companions that do everything and that we can depend on. That’s why we’ve made our MERINO FLEECE LIGHT line even MORE FUNCTIONAL. New additions are the BACKPACK-WORTHY pockets and the IMPROVED seam finishing. The jacket is robust thanks to the SMOOTH outer surface, so the material offers less contact surface. On the inside the waffle structure ensures good moisture wicking and therefore feels warm and DRY on the skin. Of course, nothing about the HIGH BREATHABILITY or incomparable wear comfort and perfect temperature management of the fine merino wool has changed. • • • •

MERINO WOOL - EVEN BETTER

WE COMBINE THE INTELLIGENCE OF NATURE WITH THE INTELLIGENCE OF MAN. MERINO WOOL MEETS NYLON. For hundreds of years we humans have been in the process of continuous improvement. Work processes are being optimized, technological developments are being utilized more and more extensively, and the materials we work with are likewise being optimally adapted to their relevant uses.

PHOTO Edgar Neves

For centuries the most functional fiber from nature, merino wool, has been impressing with its functionality. Mountaineers in particular profit from its various positive qualities. Merino wool is odor neutral, moisture regulating, very soft, easy to care for and grows back every year.

NUYARN® STRUCTURE The HIGH-END YARN STRUCTURE of Nuyarn® improves the performance and function of the wool.

WOOL

Nylon forms the core of Nuyarn®. The synthetic polyamide fiber is particularly tear-resistant, elastic and light. Merino wool is wrapped around the nylon center, creating a yarn composition that combines all of the positive features of synthetic fibers and merino wool. Nuyarn® – IMPROVES THE FUNCTIONALITY of merino wool. Your time on the mountain will be an experience to remember thanks to the improved performance of our Nuyarn® merino clothing.

NYLON

DRIES 5x FASTER

39 % MORE VOLUME

The secret of Nuyarn® is the completely new and unique spinning process. Thanks to the spinning process, the yarn is lighter, more elastic and durable, dries more quickly and retains all of the positive characteristics of merino wool. Nuyarn® can be found in our 105 MERINO ULTRA and 145 MERINO ULTRA lines.

MORE VOLUME WITH LESS WEIGHT. Because Nuyarn® doesn’t have a yarn twist it feels even softer on the skin. Although it’s thinner, Nuyarn® is better at retaining heat.

MORE STRETCH AND A MORE STABLE STRUCTURE. Thanks to the structure of the yarn, Nuyarn® forms more easily to the body and is more elastic than conventional merino wool.

STRONGER AND LESS PILLING. Nuyarn® has a higher resistance to tearing and abrasion. So it’s the perfect choice for mountaineering, where the material has to be very durable.

DRIES 5X FASTER. Because of the volume of fibers in Nuyarn®, water is more quickly absorbed and at the same time moisture is more quickly wicked away.

MERINO WOOL NEUTRALIZES ODORS. As wool makes up a large part of the Nuyarn® yarn, this characteristic is completely preserved in the new material.

Nuyarn® is the MOST EXCLUSIVE YARN in our range. In an INNOVATIVE MANUFACTURING PROCESS THE FINEST WOOL FIBERS ARE SPUN AROUND A POLYAMIDE CORE. The resulting yarn allows us to create fabrics that are LIGHTER but at the same time MORE VOLUMINOUS. The result is more warmth and comfort. In addition, the core improves many wool properties: the yarn becomes MORE ELASTIC, STABLE, LESS SUSCEPTIBLE TO PILLING and DRIES 5X FASTER than conventional merino yarn. In short: the best merino yarn of all time! • NUYARN® – IMPROVES MERINO WOOL FUNCTIONALITY* • COMFORTABLE: 39 % more volume with less weight • ELASTIC: 35 % stretchier • DURABLE: 16 % stronger and less abrasion • DRY: 5x faster drying

FOCUS ON

PRODUCTION IN

THE EU

SHORT TRANSPORT ROUTES, TRANSPARENCY AND PROXIMITY TO SUPPLIERS: EUROPE IS THE FOCUS OF ORTOVOX PRODUCTION. WITH THIS PROXIMITY, WE CAN ENSURE QUALITY IN THE LONG TERM.

THREE QUESTIONS FOR STEFAN KRAUSE, HEAD OF PRODUCT AT ORTOVOX 1. WHY DOES ORTOVOX PRODUCE SO MUCH IN THE EU? We have two supply chains: One via Asia, the other via Europe. In both cases, it is important to us that there are no unnecessary distances between the source of the raw materials and the processing location. That’s why one part of production takes place in Asia. However, focusing production in Europe means simpler coordination and flexibility. Another reason for production within the EU is the high degree of specialization: when developing and processing complex materials, we try to be at the production site as often as possible. Within Europe, physical proximity to suppliers is easier and

communication channels are more open. This has a positive effect on quality. We carry out quality checks in Asia and Europe. However, European suppliers share our understanding of lean production, reliability and precision even more, which makes coordination easier. When it comes to design and processing technology, the supply chains are identical. By producing in Europe, we are also trying to keep entrepreneurial risk to a minimum: The exchange rate fluctuations of the dollar are not to be underestimated and are a risk factor for the future.

2. MADE IN EUROPE – ARE WORKING CONDITIONS REALLY BETTER? Most EU countries are classified as low-risk by the Fair Wear Foundation: countries with low risk of labor law violations. They have trade unions, employee representatives, wage agreements, NGOs and well-functioning institutions. The working conditions are monitored at a local level and improved. This is often not the case in Asia, which is why external monitoring is required. FWF is a competent partner in this respect. However, there are good working standards and employee representation in Asia. Companies have to choose the right partner for themselves – in Europe as well as in Asia.

3. WHAT DOES THE FUTURE LOOK LIKE? Simple process coordination and short transport routes are the main issues for ORTOVOX. This is why Europe will be strengthened as a production location and sites in Asia will be phased down. Although production costs are lower Asia, there will soon be a wage increase in China and Vietnam that will cancel out this advantage. ORTOVOX stands for products of a high quality, which is guaranteed by our close proximity to our suppliers. Focusing on production in Europe is therefore the right way to guarantee this standard is maintained in the long term.

BALANCED COMPRESSION The compression effect of our SKI COMPRESSION sock is DISTRIBUTED EQUALLY FROM THE ANKLE TO THE CALF. This construction SUPPORTS THE MUSCLES and PROTECTS AGAINST FATIGUE. During ascent, but also during descent, our calf muscles have to absorb numerous knocks and vibrations. The muscles are placed under continuous stress and can quickly fatigue. Balanced compression can slow this effect.

GRADUATED COMPRESSION The compression function of our TOUR COMPRESSION sock is in line with the European CEN standard and provides class 1 compression (mild pressure, 15–21mmHg). This means the COMPRESSION EFFECT is HIGHER AT THE ANKLE THAN IN THE CALF AREA. Compression HELPS THE VEINS TO CARRY low-oxygen, high-lactate BLOOD BACK TO THE HEART and replace this with fresh blood. In this way provision to the muscles can be improved and premature fatigue prevented.

CLIMAYARN Climayarn® is a brand of yarn from Schoeller that the Swiss army has been using for several years. Along with fine Tasmanian merino wool, polycolon (polypropylene) is the main component. It effectively OFFSETS BODY TEMPERATURE CHANGES using several mechanisms. The wool’s thermoregulatory function provides warmth when cold, while the polycolon ensures QUICK WICKING OF EXCESSIVE MOISTURE. This means that in high temperatures a build-up of heat can be largely avoided. The material also impresses thanks to quick drying characteristics.

MATERIALS GLOSSARY

SWISSWOOL®

SWISSWOOL BLACK

Our Insulation line contains Swiss wool. This is the finest virgin wool with Swiss origins from the canton of Wallis. SWISSWOOL® places particular value on sustainable production and regional origin. Long transport routes are avoided whenever possible. Virgin wool is extremely lightweight and has excellent insulation properties. Numerous air pockets are created around the virgin wool, which can store large volumes of heat. If you pack the clothing items together, the air escapes and the products can be compressed to extremely small sizes.

Virgin wool from black Swiss sheep is used as the filler material for our SWISSWOOL BLACK and the 2L SWISSWOOL BLACK collections. Virgin wool is excellent insulation material: air becomes trapped between the wool fibers and provides plenty of warmth. The lightweight wool also compresses perfectly. Another advantage of wool is that it can absorb up to 30% of its own weight in moisture without feeling wet to the touch. SWISSWOOL BLACK is produced by the company swisswool and stands out just like white Swiss wool thanks to its regional origin and sustainable production.

MATERIAL SWISSWOOL® LINING MOUNTAINWEAR: 88 % virgin wool (SWISSWOOL®) + 12 % polylactide LINING GLOVES: 86 % virgin wool (SWISSWOOL®) + 14 % polylactide

DERMIZAX® NX

DERMIZAX® DT

In our new MERINO HARDSHELL collection, we use the Toray Dermizax® NX membrane – the highest-performance membrane on the market today! Unlike conventional membranes, this Japanese-made membrane is smart. It functions best when warm. The structure is not made up of micropores but is closed.

For our new LEONE JACKET, we use the high-performance Toray Dermizax® DT membrane. This membrane from the Japanese manufacturer combines the waterproofing of a hardshell with the lightness and breathability of a windbreaker.

ADVANTAGES It is extremely breathable (up to 32,000 g/m2/24 h), windproof and completely waterproof (min. 20,000 mm H₂O). Even with little care, maximum outward diffusion is guaranteed. Dermizax® NX is ideal for high-action sports – the membrane can be stretched by 200 % with no risk of delamination. Another feature that sets it apart from other membranes is ist environmentally friendly, PFC-less production. In the new MERINO HARDSHELL collection, we additionally use our MERINO MESH as a liner material – this creates a buffer effect that enhances the performance of the membrane (see “MERINO MESH”). MATERIAL MERINO HARDSHELL OUTER: 100 % polyamide MEMBRANE: 100% polyurethane (Toray Dermizax® NX) LINING: 83 % virgin wool (MERINO) + 14 % polyamide + 3 % elastane

ADVANTAGES It is 100 % windproof, waterproof (min. 20,000mm), breathable (min. 25,500g/m²/24h) and elastic at the same time. The outer material provides maximum longevity. The polyamide is processed as part of a new webbing procedure, resulting in a 50 % weight reduction with greater resistance. The patented micro bead structure on the interior provides long-term scuff resistance for the membrane underneath and increases wear comfort on the skin at the same time. MATERIAL 2L SWISSWOOL LEONE JACKET OUTER: 100 % polyamide MEMBRANE: 100 % polyurethane (Toray Dermizax® DT) INSERTS: 100 % polyamide MEMBRANE: 100% polyurethane (Toray Dermizax® NX) LINING: 88 % virgin wool (SWISSWOOL®) + 12 % polylactide

DERMIZAX EV

MERINO NATURETEC PLUS

The EV membrane works according to the same principle as that of the Dermizax® NX membrane used in our MERINO GUARDIAN SHELL and glove collection.

The MERINO NATURETEC softshell line stands for pure functionality. The outer material is elastic and robust (40,000 abrasion cycles in the Martindale test) and, thanks to the new c_changeTM membrane by Schöller, wind and water (> 10,000mm water column) have no chance to get inside. The active membrane reacts immediately to the build-up of sweat with special damp and temperature management: when it’s cold, it closes itself – as soon as the body becomes too hot, it opens the pores in order to regulate temperature and sweat production. The finest merino wool on the inside provides the highest level of wear comfort.

The difference between the two Japanese membranes lies mainly in the breathability, which is slightly lower for the Dermizax® EV (up to 32,000 g/m2/ 24 h). The values waterproofing (min. 20,000 mm H2O) and stretch are identical to those of the NX membrane. Another prominent advantage over other membranes is the environmentally friendly, PFC-less production. Our MERINO GUARDIAN SHELL is lined with merino wool laminated spotwise to the Toray membrane. Merino wool can absorb large quantities of moisture and then slowly release it back into the air. This buffer action supports the membrane, enables ideal management of temperature and moisture, and provides odor control.

PERTEX® MICROLIGHT

MERINO NATURETEC + NATURETEC LIGHT In our MERINO NATURETEC lines, we do without a membrane completely. The fine merino fibers are interwoven with the Naturetec material from the Swiss manufacturer schoeller®. The advantage: The material is extremely breathable and still provides protection against wind, light precipitation and dirt. The surface has a microstructure that causes water and even dirt particles to lastingly roll off. The combination of merino wool and durable polyamide is extremely robust and elastic – making it ideal for high-action sports. The merino wool on the skin ensures good wear comfort and ideal microclimate management in any type of weather and at any temperature. THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN NATURETEC AND NATURETEC LIGHT The two materials differ solely in terms of thickness, which also dictates their use (moderate/intense activities). The Light version weighs 175 g/m2, and the somewhat heavier standard version weighs in at 230 g/m2. However, the structures are identical. NATURETEC MATERIAL 74 % polyamide + 20 % wool (MERINO) + 6 % elastane NATURETEC LIGHT MATERIAL 75 % polyamide + 18 % wool (MERINO) + 7 % elastane

We use Pertex® Microlight as the outer material for all our SWISSWOOL LIGHT and SWISSWOOL LIGHT TEC products. It is light, very durable and scuff-resistant. The windproof material is also soft and comfortable. MATERIAL PERTEX® MICROLIGHT 100% polyamide

PERTEX® QUANTUM® PERTEX® QUANTUM® is an extremely light, tear and scuff-resistant material that also provides quick moisture wicking. Pertex® Quantum® material makes use of yarn containing filaments that have a shape reminiscent of diamonds. The interlocking fibers provide the material with excellent scuff resistance, softness and improved water-resistant qualities. MATERIAL PERTEX® QUANTUM® 100 % polyamide

3L-LODEN-PUNCHHOLE

MERINO PUNCHHOLE

Consisting of one loden layer, a membrane and a loden punchhole layer, we use this three-layered material in many of our products. The inner layer made from 100% finest merino wool feels comfortably soft on the skin; the membrane provides the necessary protection.

Protection meets breathability! Merino Punchhole has a sandwich design: on the outside we use a blend of polyamide and lycra that facilitates moisture management through its hole structure. Underneath the wind and waterproof membrane there is a layer of 100 % merino wool that provides comfort and the familiar merino functionality. Quality made in Switzerland!

NUYARN®

TENCEL®

The high-end yarn structure of Nuyarn® improves the performance and function of the wool. Nylon forms the core of Nuyarn®. The synthetic polyamide fiber is particularly tear-resistant, elastic and light. Merino wool is wrapped around the nylon center, creating a yarn composition that combines all of the positive features of synthetic fibers and merino wool. Nuyarn® – improves the functionality of merino wool. Your time on the mountain will be an experience to remember thanks to the improved performance of our Nuyarn® merino clothing.

We use TENCEL® for all products in the MERINO COOL range. This natural fiber is obtained from eucalyptus cellulose in a highly environmentally-friendly manner and free from pollutants. In addition to TENCEL®‘s COOLING properties, the fiber also inhibits bacterial growth and has an extremely smooth fiber surface.

LENZING MODAL®

MERINO ATHLETIC

Supersoft stands for a combination of the finest Merino wool and Lenzing Modal. Modal is used on the inside and is as soft as silk. Modal is a pure, natural fiber manufactured from beech wood cellulose. The fiber comes solely from wood from sustainably managed beech forests. Lenzing is the perfect companion to the functionality of Merino fiber – a scratch-free material meets the popular Merino properties. Ideally suited for highly sensitive skin!

This material combination with maximum breathability is used in zones in products such as the MERINO NATURETEC LIGHT series, designed for highly demanding activities. The outside consists of a lightweight, extremely elastic blend of nylon and elastane. On the inside of this thin layer, pure merino wool has been knitted in. Merino wool has outstanding moisture-regulating properties, a neutral odor, and the unique merino microclimate.

MATERIAL MERINO SUPERSOFT 53 % virgin wool (MERINO) + 43 % Modal (Lenzing) + 4 % polyamide

MERINO-MESH

MERINO SHIELD SHELL

MERINO MESH

MERINO SHIELD SHELL

The knit blend made of fine merino wool and polyester is used in diverse products – usually as a liner material. MERINO MESH feels good against the skin and contributes considerably to the unique merino microclimate. MERINO FIBERS buffer moisture and transport it to the surrounding air without feeling wet to the touch.

The MERINO SHIELD SHELL softshell line stands for maximum protection. The high proportion of Cordura® (71%) makes the product long-lasting and very resilient. Cordura® is a registered brand name of the Swiss company Invista. The fibers consist of a high-strength polyamide (nylon 6.6) with superior tear and abrasion-resistant properties compared to those of normal nylon materials. The robustness of the material mix of Cordura®, merino wool and Lycra was demonstrated by the Martindale test: this material mix can withstand at least 80,000 abrasion cycles. Thanks to the use of highly elastic Lycra fibers, the material has an elasticity of 20%. Finest merino wool on the inside guarantees great wear comfort and a pleasant microclimate, and a high level of breathability through the non-membrane design.

MERINO MESH MATERIAL 72 % polyester + 28 % virgin wool (MERINO)

MERINO SHIELD SHELL MATERIAL MAIN MATERIAL: 71% polyamide (Cordura®) + 21% wool (MERINO) + 8% lycra

MERINOPREN MERINOPREN We have combined the advantages of neoprene with those of merino wool. Neoprene is particularly elastic, soft and insulating. Due to its fine hole pattern it ensures excellent moisture management in combination with the merino wool below it. To provide even better insulation, the merino 240 is terry lined. The cavities between the fibers allow air to collect, which serves as a warming cushion and ensures excellent wear comfort. MATERIAL MERINOPREN 55 % polyester + 32 % virgin wool (MERINO) + 13 % elastane

CLASSIC WOOL Our Classic Wool line is made of 100?% pure virgin wool. Virgin wool has the distinct advantage of trapping a great deal of air and thus providing warmth even when wet. Depending on the product, we use 2, 3 or 4 strands of yarns. More yarn strands mean more protection and more warmth.

MOUNTAIN SAFETY Our company’s ROOTS are in emergency products. WE STAND FOR MAXIMUM PROTECTION, SIMPLICITY, RELIABILITY and INDEFATIGABLE PIONEERING SPIRIT. Over the past 37 years, ORTOVOX has revolutionized the avalanche transceiver market and enriched it with continual new technologies: in 1980 we presented the first avalanche transceiver that was able to search and transmit on the two predominating frequencies at the time. In 1989 we introduced the F1 – the first device to enable VISUAL SEARCHING. In the following decades, LEDs became the industry standard. Optical searching reached its CLIMAX in 2007 with the S1, with the RELATIVE POSITION of buried victims indicated on a large display. Just three years later we invented the SMART-ANTENNA TECHNOLOGY™ which for the first time allows transmission on two antennas. All of them are innovations that can save lives in an emergency. GERMAN INNOVATIONS completely developed and produced by ORTOVOX. As of 2013 we now offer the COMPLETE SAFETY SETUP. In 2013 we integrated the first removable ABS system into our airbag backpacks and then, in 2016, the next revolution arrived: from now on AVABAG stands for the extremely LIGHT and COMPACT AVALANCHE AIRBAG SYSTEM.

118

AVABAG. EXTREMELY REDUCED WEIGHT WITH THE BEST POSSIBLE PROTECTION.

AVABAG is the EXTREMELY LIGHT AIRBAG SYSTEM. Thanks to INNOVATIVE AIRBAG PROCESSING TECHNOLOGY, whereby the material is processed for the first time ever WITHOUT SEWING or ADDITIONAL SEALING, and thanks to the drastically REDUCED VENTURI UNIT, we have managed to achieve a sensational system weight of 690 g*. In this sense, simplicity means a reduction in components, lower weight and the highest level of reliability. * +/- 4% due to production and material fluctuations.

Together with his team of experts, the Canadian avalanche researcher Pascal Haegeli analyzed 106 avalanche accidents that occurred with airbag users. The result was frightening â&#x20AC;&#x201C; one in eight airbag users (12%) did not manage to activate the system during an avalanche. Regular training and our release-optimized grip can help to reduce this number in the future.

AVABAG ASCENT 22 ASCENT means total emphasis on SAFETY. We have developed a TECHNOLOGICAL ULTRA-LIGHT AVALANCHE AIRBAG BACKPACK that has been adapted in every aspect to our AVABAG SYSTEM, making even the longest and most demanding ski tours possible. In order to achieve the low total weight of 1950 g (incl. system and cartridge), we’ve used EXTREMELY LIGHT yet ABRASION-RESISTANT MATERIALS such as Nylon 100D Robic Ripstop, and we’ve also forgone the use of all nonessential components. However, we haven’t forgotten about HIGH WEAR COMFORT. The FOAMED 3D BACK SYSTEM distributes the weight evenly between the hip fins and the padded shoulder straps. The CIRCULAR FRONTAL ZIPPER provides quick access to equipment, the diagonal ski attachment, ice axe holder and rope fastener, which are all very easy to use.

AVABAG FREE RIDER 20 S For this EXTREMELY LIGHT AIRBAG SYSTEM we have developed a freerider backpack that provides the HIGHEST LEVEL OF PROTECTION. The redevelopment of the SPS FLEX BACK PROTECTOR is the main focus, which combines the back system and protector into a FLEXIBLE UNIT. Built from EIGHT PADS, which remain comfortably flexible even in the cold, the TÜV-certified protector adapts to the body and absorbs impacts through the immediate hardening of the foam. Meanwhile, the broad hip belt and the FREE RIDER’s silhouette, which integrates with the body, ensures a SECURE FIT on the back. We have completely redesigned the series’ inner to aid packing. Thanks to this redesign, we have been able to produce 20 liters of fully-utilizable volume for our AVABAG unit. Outside, the tried and tested freeride features come into action, whereby we have significantly optimized the helmet and snowboard holder.

LESSON | AVALANCHE TRANSCEIVERS

HOW DO THE 3 ANTENNAS OF AN AVALANCHE BEACON WORK? Y

Z X

Modern avalanche transceivers utilize three ANTENNAS (X, Y, Z). AVALANCHE TRANSCEIVER IN SEARCH MODE During searching, all three antennas are used. The X and the Y antennas are used to display range and direction. The Z antenna is used for close search only (the final few meters). AVALANCHE TRANSCEIVER IN TRANSMITTING MODE WITHOUT SMART-ANTENNA: Devices without a Smart-Antenna can send only over the X antenna. WITH SMART-ANTENNA: ORTOVOX units S1+, 3+, and ZOOM+ with Smart-Antenna technology are the only devices on the market that, depending on their location, can TRANSMIT OVER BOTH THE X AND Y ANTENNAS. This greatly extends the victim’s transmission range (up to double), making it much easier to find the buried person. We can therefore say that the victim has greater VISIBILITY for the rescuer.

THE POSITION OF THE BURIED TRANSCEIVER IN THE AVALANCHE IS CRITICAL FOR HOW VISIBLE IT WILL BE FOR THE RESCUER. WHY? The transceiver can have two basic POSITIONS in the avalanche: HORIZONTAL or VERTICAL.

VERY HIGH VISIBILITY

HORIZONTAL POSITION = VERY HIGH VISIBILITY The X antenna broadcasts HORIZONTALLY in two dimensions. A horizontally oriented transmission antenna enables HIGH VISIBILITY with a LARGE SURFACE COVERAGE in the search range. This usually makes it easy to find the victim.

VERTICAL POSITION WITHOUT SMART-ANTENNA = POOR VISIBILITY The X antenna broadcasts VERTICALLY. A vertically oriented transmission antenna results in POOR VISIBILITY due to its MINIMAL SURFACE AREA coverage in the search range. Therefore, a vertical sender without Smart-Antenna is very difficult to locate. POOR VISIBILITY WITHOUT SMART-ANTENNA

139

LESSON | AVALANCHE TRANSCEIVERS

VERTICAL POSITION WITH SMART-ANTENNA = VERY HIGH VISIBILITY SOLUTION: The patented SMART-ANTENNA-TECHNOLOGY SOLVES THE PROBLEM of poor visibility caused by a vertical position. The position sensor in all new ORTOVOX avalanche transceivers ANALYZES THE POSITION of the device buried in the avalanche and automatically switches to the Y antenna if the angle is 75° or greater.

VERY HIGH VISIBILITY WITH SMART-ANTENNA

As a result, THE ANTENNA TRANSMITS HORIZONTALLY and the surface coverage in the search range again approaches the maximum range. This RESTORES VERY HIGH VISIBILITY, regardless of which device the rescuer is using. Making it easier to find avalanche victims!

SAFETY ACADEMY MOUNTAIN 3D WE BRIDGE THE GAP BETWEEN THEORY AND PRACTICE! KURT WALDE, seasoned mountain guide and mountain guide trainer in South Tyrol, recognized the gap and, with loving attention to detail, developed a wooden model of the mountain that combined the most relevant mountain shapes. Information that is difficult to understand can be ILLUSTRATED EASILY on the SAFETY ACADEMY MOUNTAIN 3D â&#x20AC;&#x201C; in particular on training courses for beginners. Together with Kurt, we developed a HANDBOOK that addresses complex questions which can be resolved by the participants or the trainer with the help of the mountain. We picked out a few basic questions that encapsulate the working principle of our SAFETY ACADEMY MOUNTAIN 3D. The SAFETY ACADEMY 3D MOUNTAIN was developed and implemented together with RISK PROTECT. RISK PROTECT draws on many years of experience in product development and manufacturing technology and is considered to be a think tank for mountaineering equipment and occupational safety.

BE QUICKER That’s what it’s about. In every detail. We develop high-grade specialized probes for the widest range of needs and user groups. The pursuit of PRECISION and SPEED is our goal. Because these can save lives in an EMERGENCY. We deal with detail-focused solutions that make rescues even more intuitive and, together with an avalanche transceiver and shovel, lead us more quickly to the buried person.

PFA QUICK-ASSEMBLY SYSTEM 2.0 The successor to our oft-copied quick-assembly system is even SLIMMER and MORE COMPACT, while still offering the same proven smooth clamping performance. Thanks to the NEW QUICK-ASSEMBLY STRAP, the probe can be assembled straight out of the cover. It can be collapsed by pressing the system cap with your thumb.

ERGONOMIC GRIP The thin and light rubber coating provides the perfect grip for quickly assembling the probe.

147

VISUAL GUIDE SYSTEM The intuitive visual guide system provides you with quick and clear information about the victimâ&#x20AC;&#x2DC;s depth at all times. You can perfectly ADAPT YOUR SHOVELING STRATEGY and save important time thanks to the clear 1m marker, CONTRASTING DEPTH SCALE and COLORFUL END SEGMENTS. The bottommost segment in neon orange indicates when you are approaching the victim.

100 cm The neon orange 1m marker is either visible or not visible: the burial depth can therefore be estimated and communicated very quickly.

40 cm The bottommost neon orange segment is exposed: you can signal that you are near. Continue shoveling carefully

SHOVELS KODIAK Over the years, ORTOVOX’s constant innovations have shaped the avalanche shovel. Our products become ever more perfect in the minutest of details thanks to constant improvements and optimization. The Kodiak is living proof of this. The revised D-grip is now MORE COMPACT and FUNCTIONAL. It saves space in your backpack without a reduction in working length. Professionals will be delighted by the shovel blade’s flat reverse side, which allows snow profiles to be dug even more effectively. We have retained the tried-and-tested EASY PLUG (Kodiak) clearing function: Here the blade is placed at a 90 degree angle to the shaft. The ERGONOMIC D-grip is fully usable. Switching between standard position and clearing function SAVES TIME AND EFFORT.

PFA ASSEMBLY SYSTEM

6061 ALUMINUM T6

“Patented Flash Assembly“ for reliable assembly that’s quick as a flash. With over 100,000 PFA probes sold, the system has established itself in every area of application in the last ten years. We’ve optimized the finer details for even quicker and more efficient handling: The quick-assembly strap, which is attached to the outside of the probe cover, makes immediate opening and assembly possible in one motion. The PFA system also ensures it locks into place smoothly.

The strongest aluminum available - used in our high-end safety products for optimal balance between weight and rigidity. The 6061 aluminum T6 is used in all ORTOVOX shovel handles and the blade of the KODIAK.

QUICK LOCK

D-GRIFF

With the new quick-lock assembly system, assembly and locking is possible in a single direction. By pulling, the knot snaps directly into the system and the probe is assembled! The screw system makes fine, perfect adjustments possible.

The D-handle is regarded as the king of all handles. Its orientation and ergonomics allow for maximum lift. Thus you can remove more snow without tiring.

7075 ALUMINUM T6

The shovel handle has an oval cross section, which gives it better durability than round cross sections. The same is true for the stiffness. The force transmission and thus the shoveling performance are much higher. Most of our shovel handles are telescopic – this reduces the pack size and enables economic handling.

Light and stiff and thus the aluminum of our choice for all aluminum probes. We use different tube diameters between 11 and 13 mm meaning: the thicker the diameter, the heavier and stiffer the probe.

CARBON Our premium probes are made of carbon. The material is extremely stiff, yet very light. Another advantage is the low thermal conductivity of the material – the probe is more resistant to freezing.

STEEL Steel is extremely rigid and sturdy. When weight is not a factor, but reliability and probing accuracy play a major role, steel is the first choice!

STEEL CABLE PULL LINE Our most reliable pull line system. For a little extra weight, you get maximum safety.

ARAMID The aluminum/carbon probe segments are held together by an accessory cord made of aramid. Aramid fibers provide high rigidity, robustness and stability with limited stretching, making them ideal for a tension system.

5052 ALUMINUM This type of aluminum is light yet rigid and, therefore, our first choice for many of our shovel scoops.

CONICAL HANDLE + RUBBERIZATION

EASY-PLUG CLEARING FUNCTION KODIAK The Kodiak‘s entrenching action is the strongest on the market. The shovel blade slides onto the handle at a 90° angle, the grip remains 100 % usable. Thus aluminum fits on aluminum – a virtually indestructible combination. The entrenching action significantly assists the rescue of buried victims with two or more helpers.

FIRST AID BIVY PRO Protection and rescue equipment in one! Whether the bivouac is planned or you have to spend an unintentional night on the mountain because of a sudden change in the weather or an accident – our BIVI PRO will protect you! It is WINDPROOF and, thanks to the PU coating, also WATER AND DIRT RESISTANT; a SILVER LINING on the inside protects against cold by REFLECTING BODY HEAT. But the lightweight and extremely robust BIVI PRO is far more than just a bivi bag. Thanks to its many loops, it CAN BE USED IN A NUMBER OF WAYS. It is perfect for professional, improvised descent transport of an injured party and for preparing a bivi bag knot, but can also be converted into a seated tent or sun awning. Despite its compact size, the BIVI PRO offers space for 1–2 persons and comes in a stowaway bag, which thanks to its rolltop, can easily be compressed.

MOUNTAIN BACKPACKS Four years after the company‘s foundation in 1981 we developed our first BACKPACK MODEL. We realized 32 years ago that a backpack is an essential part of a full set of EMERGENCY EQUIPMENT (avalanche transceiver, shovel, probe). The models developed back then were still archaically called »DEEP SNOW BACKPACKS«, yet already followed the safety principle back in 1985 that still inspires us to this day in all product ranges. During over a quarter of a century‘s experience in designing backpacks, a number of INNOVATIONS can be attributed to us. Standard features like an integrated back protector, a SAFETY COMPARTMENT, which allows quick access to the emergency equipment, or access to the main compartment via the back system, were established by ORTOVOX. Today our backpacks stand for the highest QUALITY, innovative DETAILS, FUNCTIONALITY as well as unique DESIGN, based on a vast wealth of experience.

TOUR SERIES ASCENT 32 Our SKI TOUR backpacks are getting reinforcements: The ULTRA-LIGHT and TECHNICAL ASCENT is perfect for demanding days spent in the mountains. That’s why we’ve focused on the IMPORTANT THINGS and thought through every detail. It has a rope attachment, ice axe holder, and side and diagonal ski attachments. The circumferential front zipper provides quick access to all your important things. In the generous upper compartment there is space for your cell phone, keys or other small items. The backpack is EXTREMELY LIGHT thanks to the nylon 100D Robic Ripstop, but also ABRASION RESISTANT. Despite this reduction we have of course still emphasized HIGH WEAR COMFORT: The FOAMED 3D BACK SYSTEM distributes the weight evenly between the hip fins and the padded shoulder straps. This makes the ASCENT the perfect companion for your DAYS SPENT TOURING!

TOUR SERIES HAUTE ROUTE 32 The HAUTE ROUTE has been around almost since the birth of ski touring. Following a new makeover it is now much LIGHTER and, thanks to the use of Cordura® and double-layered Nylon 420D, even more RESISTANT TO ABRASION. We have also taken the O-Flex back system to the next level. More technical and slender in appearance, it distributes the weight in a tried and tested way between the hips and shoulders to ensure OUTSTANDING WEAR COMFORT. Typical in this series is the access to the main compartment on the back as well as being generously equipped. The new edition also comes with crampon fastening, a fixed helmet net, a map compartment and an external rope fastening. With its usable volume of 32 / 30 liters, HAUTE ROUTE is a leader among our portfolio of ski touring backpacks.

FREERIDE SERIES FREE RIDER 24 ORTOVOX protects. This guiding principle was also the central focus during the development of our FREE RIDER: The downhill backpack for freeriders has an SPS Flex BACK PROTECTOR, which combines the back system and protector into a FLEXIBLE UNIT. Built from EIGHT PADS that remain comfortably flexible even in the cold, the TÜV-certified protector adapts to the body and absorbs impact. We use SAS-TEC protective foam. After outward applications of force, this VISCOELASTIC foam quickly returns to its original shape. In contrast to other cushioning materials, it is can also WITHSTAND MULTIPLE IMPACTS (impacts do not destroy the protectors) and is even responsive to small applications of force. Cushioning occurs in a near-linear fashion, which keeps stress on the human body low. Along with the optimized back protector, our FREE RIDER also has NEW features such as ski and snowboard fastenings and the fully-integrated helmet net. So it adds no extra weight – on the contrary: The FREE RIDER has become significantly lighter.

BACKPACKS

The TEST carried out by SAS-TEC shows how the foam differs from other protectors. They simulated an IMPACT against a HARD OBJECT. The graphic shows an initial flat increase in force distribution for a rubber-like protector. After four milliseconds the foam is completely compressed. It is only then that cushioning actually begins. This means there is a remaining force of 30kN on the body, which is huge. For hardshell protectors, this value is even higher. In practice, this could result in bones breaking. In comparison, the SAS-TEC FOAM used in the FREERIDER line causes the energy (from the impact) to dissipate over a longer period of time. Cushioning is linear and the maximum remaining force is in the region of only 11.7kN. This means the STRESS on the body is LOW. After the impact the viscoelastic foam returns to its original shape. This means that it is CAPABLE OF WITHSTANDING MULTIPLE IMPACTS.

Those who get away from the masses and head to the mountains need protection. But only gear that fits properly can protect the body perfectly. That’s the reason why the ORTOVOX FREERIDER line comes in three different sizes. With our TÜV-certified protectors, we offer injury protection for every height and back length. SHORT (S) is perfect for a back length of 36 – 44cm and a height of approx. 150 – 175cm, REGULAR for a back length of 42 – 50cm and a height of approx. 170 – 195cm and LONG (L) for a back length of 47 – 55cm and a height of approx. 180 – 200cm. The wide wraparound hip strap ensures the protector fits perfectly – especially when it matters most.

HIGH ALPINE SERIES PEAK 45 Our TECHNICAL and ROBUST PEAK backpacks equip you perfectly for alpine activities. The SWISSWOOL back system is unique. Using a highly complicated process we have managed to produce the backs from pressed Swiss wool. In exactly the same way as with the clothing, you benefit from the wool’s perfect MOISTURE AND MICROCLIMATE MANAGEMENT, and it therefore feels comfortable and DRY ON YOUR BACK. The wide, padded shoulder and hip straps distribute the weight of the load evenly between the shoulders and hips. The circumferential front zipper grants you direct access to the main compartment – the separate safety compartment provides access to emergency equipment in one easy movement. In order to ensure that the backpacks in the PEAK series are ready for you to use on the mountain, we have produced them using Nylon 420D Manstar, our MOST RESISTANT MATERIAL – extremely tear and abrasion resistant and therefore long-lasting.

The highlight: when turned inside out, it can be STORED AWAY IN ITS OWN POCKET and requires only minimal space. In this way, the ultra-light TRAD 18 fits perfectly into the bigger members of the TRAD family, to be used only when you get to the rock face. Because being lightweight alone is not enough, we have of course added features such as material loops, rope fastening option, a hydration system fastening and a zip pocket for storing valuables. The lightly padded shoulder straps and soft back guarantee the necessary wear comfort. To ensure that the treatment of injured parties is as efficient as possible, an EMERGENCY CARD has also been integrated into the backpack.

MATERIALS GLOSSARY BACKPACKS

SWISSWOOL FULL CONTACT The Swisswool backs on our HIGH ALPINE SERIES backpacks are made of pressed WOOL FLEECE with a punchhole covering. Thanks to the wool, the backpack can ABSORB MUCH MORE MOISTURE FROM THE BACK and at the same time is MORE BREATHABLE than conventional backpacks that are made using foam material, for example. A further advantage of wool is that the surface of the back system dries faster. The FULL CONTACT BACK fits closely to the body and offers optimum weight distribution. The back design consists of three aluminum struts that offer HIGH STABILITY and guarantee GREAT COMFORT, even when the backpack is heavily loaded.

O-FLEX The back system was developed in collaboration with physicians from the Rückenzentrum München (Munich Back Center). It evenly DISTRIBUTES THE LOAD between the shoulders and the hips, providing GREATER WEAR COMFORT and MUSCLE RELIEF.

HIGH FLEX CONTACT

SPS FLEX

The back system for our CLIMBING SERIES offers a light-weight, REMOVABLE ALUMINUM FRAME and a FULL-CONTACT CARRYING SYSTEM. The frame is very flexible, but rigid along the horizontal axis in order to bear as much weight as possible. Thanks to its 3D shape, the backpack fits closely to the back and guaranties GREAT FREEDOM OF MOVEMENT and the best possible wear comfort.

TÜV-certified protector made from visco-elastic foam that ADAPTS TO THE BODY and remains FLEXIBLE EVEN IN THE COLD.

HYPALON

COMFORT CONTACT

We were one of the first companies to use hypalon in the construction of our backpacks. The material is now used anywhere that sharp, pointed items could damage a backpack. Hypalon is RESISTANT to cold and VIRTUALLY INDESTRUCTIBLE.

The CONTACT PADS in our ALPINE SERIES light-weight back system ensure permanent CIRCULATION OF AIR, and make our backpacks a pleasure to wear during activities that involve a great deal of movement. In addition, the soft pads offer extremely high wear comfort.

SPANDEX All of our back pads are covered with Spandex. Spandex is an elastic PU yarn known for ist robust yet soft surface, giving it a very high level of comfort. The surface structure is so fine that NOT EVEN SNOW WILL STICK TO IT – making it ideal for our winter backpacks!

FULL CONTACT LIGHT The foamed 3D back system is LIGHTWEIGHT and STABLE at the same time and provides IDEAL WEIGHT DISTRIBUTION.
