Deuter Speed Lite Pro 28 back pack 2025
Move fast & light through the mountains – as well as comfortably – with this featherweight speed hiking backpack. Its vest-style perforated shoulder straps, supple hip fins, 2-way adjustable sternum strap and deuter LiteAir back system combine to create good ventilation and a snug, compact fit. Handy pockets on the shoulder straps and hip fins, a spacious lid compartment plus quick-release pole attachments, provide fast on-the-move access without having to take off the pack.
Ultralight to preserve energy
Its lightweight construction, lightweight materials, LiteAir back system and pared down features set combine to make the new Speed Lite Pro even lighter than its predecessors. This featherweight backpack weighs in at just 680 grams (Speed Lite Pro 25) und 740 grams (Speed Lite Pro 28 SL). Which means you can put more energy into the trail and less into carrying the load.
Ergonomic back comfort
Wide, ergonomically shaped shoulder straps with full ventilation, supple hip fins, and a precision-adjustable, lightly elasticated sternum strap create a snug fit with zero load wobble and distribute the weight evenly between the hips and shoulders. This minimizes strain on the shoulders and therefore also on the back.
Practical openings for quick access
Pockets on the shoulder straps and hip fins have space for a bottle, energy bars, a cell phone or GPS device. Quick-release bungee draw cords on the shoulder straps provide fast on-the-move access to poles without having to take the pack off. So you don’t have to break stride.
SL Women’s Fit
This model is also available in the SL version. The SL back length is specific for women: on average, women have shorter backs than men. The carrying system in the SL model is therefore somewhat shorter than in the Deuter standard backpacks. In addition, the carrying system is specially adapted to the female anatomy.

Technologies
Made without PFAS
This deuter product was manufactured by us without the use of per- and polyfluorinated chemicals. This reduces the use of substances that are harmful to the environment and health. PFAS is used, among other things, as a coating for rain protection, as they have water, dirt and grease-repellent properties. Instead, deuter now uses DWR (Durable Water Repellency) impregnation, which is harmless to health and environmentally friendly.
Green Button certified product
The Green Button is a government-run certification label for sustainable textiles. Everyone who aims to purchase socially and environmentally sustainable clothes should look out for the Green Button. There is currently no other label like the Green Button. It demands that mandatory standards are met to protect people and the environment. A total of 46 stringent social and environmental criteria must be met, covering a wide spectrum from wastewater to forced labour. Read more information here.
ClimatePartner certified product
By increasingly adopting materials and technologies for our collections that have a smaller carbon footprint, we are taking positive steps toward reducing our CO² emissions. But despite our greatest efforts, it’s impossible not to generate any emissions at all. And so, we’ve teamed up with ClimatePartner to offset all unavoidable CO² emissions. From now on, when a deuter product is bought, the volume of emissions released by the manufacture and transportation of it will be compensated for through voluntary offsetting and targeted investment in select social and climate protection projects.
