Deuter Speed Lite 16 2018 16 L

Hiking and sports

The well-known manufacturer Deuter positions the Speed Lite 16 backpack as a model for short walks and/or easy climbs in the mountains. With a capacity of 16 liters, the model is characterized by light weight (370 grams.

In general, a backpack made of nylon has all the makings of a versatile sports solution. For example, runners, skiers and cyclists will love the V-shape, the ventilated anatomic back and shoulder straps, and the secure fit guaranteed by the adjustable chest strap and waist belt. Plus there is a pocket for a 2-liter hydrator and the outlet of its pipe. However the presence of a waist belt should be further clarified, because there are versions on the market without it.

Roomy solution

The free space of the Deuter Speed Lite 16 is very well distributed, although the model is inferior to urban backpacks in terms of the range of pockets. The main compartment in the compartment under the hydrator can isolate wet things, protecting them from clean clothes and/or snack food.

The top has a zippered pocket for your phone, keys and other small items that need quick access. On the sides are elastic pockets for water and/or energy bars. And there are also loops for outdoor placement of equipment.

Branded "things"

Of the useful details of the model, it is worth highlighting reflective elements, a loop for a flashlight, and the presence of an SOS label with a guide on actions in an emergency. Also worthy of mention are the zippers. They provide ergonomic finger loops, which will allow you not to spend a lot of time opening / closing.

The Deuter Speed Lite 16 is a well-balanced sports backpack in terms of weight, capacity and features.
