Our Take
The shape-shifting partner for the vertical realm.
The Mutant 38 is the dedicated alpine specialist designed for the climber who refuses to compromise between hauling capacity and on-route precision. Whether you are trudging up a glacier with a full rack or fighting spindrift on a vertical ice pitch, this pack adapts to the objective. It functions as a robust load hauler on the approach but strips down to a streamlined climbing tool when every ounce matters. With a snow-shedding backpanel that refuses to ice up and a close-to-body fit that moves with you through technical cruxes, it is the versatile workhorse that ensures your gear never holds you back from the summit.
