Click here for all Yukon backpacksThe size-adjustable V2 Carrying System of the Yukon is developed for loads up to 25 kilograms. A combination of aluminum and GRP rods (1, 2) ensures an excellent balance between efficient load transfer and flexibility. The ergonomically designed hip belt with lumbar padding (3) and three-dimensionally shaped hip wings (4) is comfortably padded and prevents the backpack from slipping. The concave back padding (5) ensures optimum support and good contact with the backpack – sufficient freedom of movement even when fully loaded. The load control straps (6), the comfortable shoulder straps (7) and the lid height (8) are adjustable and allow a precise fit. With the V2 Carrying System Women, the back length and shoulder straps are adapted to the female anatomy.
The large zipper opening into the main compartment proves to be very convenient when packing. You can quickly access the contents of your backpack at any time, even when you’re on the move, without having to “rummage” from top to bottom.
You can remove the lid pocket of the Yukon backpack and use it separately. You can either attach it to the front of the shoulder straps as a front pouch (so you always have your valuables in view) or use it as a shoulder bag (and leave your large backpack in your accommodation).
We explain all the features of our Yukon backpack in detail on the product detail pages of the individual models.
We use hard-wearing and abrasion-resistant polyamide fabrics for our backpacks, which are waterproof thanks to a multiple polyurethane coating on the inside of the fabric. The extremely robust CORDURA® material on the bottom of the pack proves to be reliable, and the bottom is also reinforced with a second layer of fabric. All fabrics used have a PFAS-free DWR finish, making them dirt and water repellent.
Nothing gives more pleasure than equipment that lasts a long time! If your backpack has suffered on your backpacking trip, our repair service will take care of restoring it.
Our backpacks are produced fairly in our own SA8000-certified production facilities. You can also see the high social standards for yourself through our Open Factory program: every Friday you can visit our Mountech Co. Ltd. factory in Ho Chi Minh City while production is running.
