At the ISPO outdoor exhibition in July 2023, I saw the reef blue multi-feature core backpack at the Dott counter, and I was impressed by the pure blue. Dot's backpack currently has Ford La 32, Walker 25, Firefly 23, and has not used Dot's heavy backpack for several years, just in time to go to Tibet to hike the eastern slope of Mount Everest, so I received this multi-feature core 60+10 backpack in early September
Official data: This DEUTER Multi-Feature Core 60+10 Heavy Backpack weighs about 2310 grams
It adopts 500D-235D PA wear-resistant and water-repellent high-density lightweight fabric, which is wear-resistant, tear-resistant, and stain-proof and water-repellent
I have to admit that using this reef blue has made the appearance of Dot's backpack improve too much.
The backpack body is still the traditional design of the bag, sleeping bag compartment and main warehouse design, but there is a new design in the external system and waist pack. Let's take a closer look
First of all, compared with the previous hiking bag, the waist bag is not only on the belt, the waist pack is much larger, and the two hanging points at the back extend directly to the main bag. And detachable
On the left side, after putting the Kerez charging treasure, DJI ACTION 4, 0.6-liter BEFREE water purifier, Kuroye 23W charging pad, and Knight Cole UT25 headlamp, there is still a lot of space to put in some snacks and replenish them at any time.
The right belt bag is equipped with a zippered water bottle couch, and the zipper is opened for more room to expand.
From the perspective of space alone, you can put down the thermos 900ml thermos cup, and I personally do not recommend putting too heavy objects in your waist bag. It is easy to cause weight imbalance between the two sides. Inside your waist bag are some small items commonly used during hiking. Gloves, mobile phones, snacks, power banks and the like
In terms of the configuration of the equipment inside the bag, I chose an inflatable cushion instead of a foam sleeping bag.
8 days and 7 nights of hiking on the east slope of Mount Everest, so before entering the mountain, I temporarily found a large bottle of Nongfu Spring for the camp to fetch water, which became the only external plug
Reef blue and red storm suits are also particularly eye-catching at high altitudes
The stretch woven bag on the side is also made large enough to store more items.
As well as the removable compression strap, which can be attached to multiple attachment points on the backpack
Add a compression strap to the outside of the sleeping bag compartment so that foam mats can be attached
But for my personal habits, try to avoid plug-ins. It's best to pack them all in your bag.
The designer should have sprayed the support frame orange for the sake of appearance, which is particularly eye-catching with the reef blue. In terms of appearance, the designer is pinched.
From the figure below, the official schematic diagram of the carrying structure can clearly understand the core part structure of the load
Y-shaped support frame for a stable fit
Built-in Y-shaped back support frame, weight transfer to the hips, provides good carry stable balance and negative gravity, flexible adaptation to body posture to follow your body movement, and evenly weighted dispersion and transfer weight with a good back fit.
VARISLIDE back length adjustment system
In addition to the right backpack, correct adjustment of the back length plays a key role in good carrying comfort. Especially for loads of more than 10 kg and long walking times, the VARISLIDE back length adjustment system offers a tailor-made and comfortable fit that is easier and more straightforward.
AIRCONTACT air tower carries comfort and breathability
The newly upgraded Air Spacer air isolation back mesh combines comfort, cushioning and ventilation, and the new open-cell air contact foam creates a "pump effect" of ventilation with each movement, reducing perspiration. THE SOFT FULL-CONTACT AIRCONTACT TOWER CARRYING SYSTEM IS CLOSE TO THE BODY'S CENTER OF GRAVITY, PROVIDING GOOD CARRYING CONTROL AND WEIGHT TRANSFER.
ACTIVE FIT pivoting flexible shoulder strap
The ergonomic S-shaped shoulder strap meets the shoulder width of different people, and the shoulder strap spacing can be adjusted left and right to a comfortable position, and the pressure is relieved by the stable S-shaped thickened padded wide shoulder strap to provide good carrying comfort.
The eastern slope of Mount Everest is 8 days and 7 nights, all in the high-altitude area above 4,000 meters above sea level. The whole pack of multi-feature core 60+10 backpacks weighs more than 40 pounds, and the weight of the food consumed will gradually decrease over time.
and two mountain weight-bearing exercises before departure and after returning from Tibet. Deepened the impression of this bag
First of all, the appearance is obvious to all, and Dot's hundreds of years of bag-making history ensure the excellent performance of this backpack
And the weight is also subtracted, and it does not affect its load-bearing capacity, which is very worthy of recognition
Finally, if you also take a look at the Journey CORE Reef Blue look, my reminder that Dort's large bag must be chosen carefully if the user is short in height.
A DEUTER multi-feature core 60+10 reload backpack experience video will be released soon, so stay tuned
