A ski touring pack built for the mountains

Total price: €450

The Adapt-Alpine 28 is designed for ski mountaineering and technical backcountry touring. At 28 liters, it gives you the right balance of capacity and agility for day tours, hut approaches, and steep objectives. 

For this production batch, I'm using an olive green rugged army surplus fabric, upgrading the capacity to 28 litres, adding an aluminum stay in the back, a small zip pocket to the front, and something very special – a "Friendship Pocket" made of stretchy mesh fabric and placed inside the main compartment. The idea of the Friendship Pocket is to keep a chocolate bar or something nice ready for that stranger you meet on your trip.

This version of the AA28 comes with a few important upgrades:

  • 28-liter capacity – refined sizing for day and overnight tours
  • Aluminum stay – added structure and carry comfort
  • Front zip pocket – for fast-access essentials
  • New “Friendship Pocket” – a stretchy mesh pocket inside the main compartment, designed to carry a chocolate bar or something small to share with a stranger on the mountain

Every backpack is hand sewn in Helsinki, and in very limited numbers. Preorder now to secure your spot.

What makes it different

  • Olive Green Army Surplus Hight Tenacity Nylon – This waterproof fabric has exceptionally high tensile strength, resistance to abrasion, and durability. Sourced from the Finnish army.
  • Handmade in Helsinki – No mass production, no container ships. Each pack is built one by one, start to finish.
  • New “Friendship Pocket” – A small inside pocket designed to carry something to share on the mountain — like a chocolate bar for a stranger.
  • Touring essentials – Side-zip main compartment access, avalanche tool pocket, ski/snowboard carry system, helmet pouch, ice axe loops, roll-top closure. Full feature list below.

Fit
The backpack fits best for a person whose height is 175–195 cm, give or take a couple of centimeters. The pack has an S-shaped profile on the backside which provides a natural fit and a removable aluminum stay that provides extra support.
