Deuter stands as a trailblazing brand in the outdoor gear industry.

Blending over a century of craftsmanship with cutting-edge design, Deuter bags give adventurers the ultimate freedom to explore new summits - responsibly and confidently. 

What Is The History Behind Deuter Backpacks?

In 1898, Hans Deuter founded the company in Augsburg, Germany - initially as a small business supplying sturdy mailbags for the Bavarian Royal Mail. By 1910, Deuter was creating military-ready backpacks and tents, and eventually made the transition to producing durable gear for mountain explorers.

Deuter became a household name among adventurers - and was even a trusted choice for expeditions to Mount Everest, with a reputation for quality and durability. With a body-hugging fit and stabilising support, Deuter packs help you achieve your goals as an adventurer. 

1984 was a milestone for the outdoor industry with the launch of Deuter’s Aircomfort back system - a ventilated back panel that leaves breathing space between the mesh and your back, to heighten airflow and manage sweat. It’s an innovation that remains in use in modern backpacks today, enhancing the comfort of explorers. 

More than a century after its humble beginnings, Deuter remains one of the top European backpack and sleeping bag specialists trusted by hikers, mountaineers and travellers all over the world.

Deuter stays honest to a trifecta of core values:

• Mountain Sports: Devoted to giving more people the freedom to explore mountains and enjoy the beauty of the outdoors.
• Responsibility: Taking a proactive approach to sustainability and protecting the wild places we explore for future generations, including the use of bluesign-approved and Responsible Down Standard (RDS) materials. Deuter is a 1% For The Planet member and upholds fair working conditions.
• Excellence: Applying over 125 years of craftsmanship to some of the best hiking backpacks to support your passion for the outdoors.

Are Deuter Backpacks Good for Hiking & Travel?

If you’re enthusiastic about the outdoors, a Deuter backpack is your ideal trail and travel companion. Whether you’re setting off on a weekend trek or tackling a thru-hike on an international adventure, Deuter’s trekking backpacks and travel bags are designed to make every step more comfortable. 

Deuter packs help make the outdoors more accessible and exploration more comfortable by keeping the differences between male and female anatomy in mind for a truly custom fit. Deuter women’s backpacks in the SL (Slim Line) series - designed in collaboration with Austrian mountaineer Gerlinde Kaltenbrunner - feature narrower designs and shorter torso lengths than Deuter men’s backpacks. This gives female adventurers the performance and comfort Deuter is known for - with a design tailored to fit.

From mountain summits to local trails, Deuter is there for every adventure - inspiring a lifetime of exploration and care for the outdoors. Discover Deuter hiking packs and daypacks for the journey ahead, child carriers that nurture a lifelong passion for the outdoors and travel duffel bags to take your adventurous spirit around the world.
