Rab Latok 38L Mountain Pack

Crafted to endure the harshest conditions, the Latok 38 combines exceptional strength with an ultralight design. Constructed with Spectra® fibres, which are 15 times stronger than steel for their weight, this alpine pack is built to handle the toughest rock and ice environments.

Designed to be minimalistic, streamlined, and secure during movement, the Latok series provides alpinists and mountaineers with unparalleled utility and durability at minimal weight. Featuring removable components for ultralight days and robust construction for challenging expeditions, the Latok 38 is ready to support even the most ambitious objectives.

The Latok is engineered with reinforced Cordura nylon, Spectra® Ripstop, and a HydroShield water-resistant finish, making it highly resistant to abrasion, tears, and UV exposure. Its lightweight design incorporates features that can be adjusted or removed as needed. From the foam back panel to the detachable rope strap, users can tailor the pack’s weight, rigidity, and fit according to their specific adventure needs.

The X-SHIELD™ back system has been developed to sit close to the back, ensuring unrestricted movement, while the dual-density foam straps enhance mobility further. With thicker padding at the top for comfort and thinner padding at the base, the straps contour to the body and move seamlessly with the wearer. The roll-top entry is not only strong and highly weatherproof but also provides easy access, offering ample space for gear. Extensive gear attachment options keep essential equipment readily accessible. Whether used for alpine climbing or ski mountaineering, the Latok 38 is purpose-built for fast, lightweight ascents where every gram matters.
