No summit too high, no distance too long – the Peak 55 is Ortovox's answer for alpinists who need to carry everything a demanding multi-day tour throws at them. Wide, cushioned shoulder straps and hip belt make heavy loads genuinely bearable, and the Swisswool 3D back system – a close-fitting, full-contact panel reinforced with metal struts – spreads the weight evenly rather than letting it all sag onto your lower back. That back panel isn't just padding either: the areas that touch your body are lined with real Swiss wool fleece, which absorbs sweat and dries far quicker than standard foam. Add a separate safety compartment for your avalanche kit, plus attachment points for rope, ice axe, helmet, skis, snowboard and poles, and you've got organised storage for any eventuality. Built from durable recycled nylon, this is a pack made to be thrashed across seasons, not just for one big trip.
If you've spent much time in the Alps, chances are you've seen a lot of folk sporting Ortovox kit. It's one of the biggest and most well-respected brands in Austria and Germany, backed up by the kind of mountain heritage that most companies can only dream of.
Ortovox started out more than 40 years ago making avalanche transceivers and other rescue equipment, and to this day they're still the go-to outfitters for mountain rescue teams, alpine guides and extreme mountaineers. Get your hands on an Ortovox pack or garment and you'll soon see why. The construction and quality of this stuff is on a whole different level, right down to tiny details like the buckles and merino mesh inserts. It's gear you can rely on day-in, day-out, in seriously spicy conditions – and thousands of mountain professionals genuinely do just that.
Ortovox kit has a very distinctive, technical look – and their background in mountain safety means they're big on bright colours that make you easy to spot in an emergency. But the materials bear closer inspection too. They're huge champions of the properties of natural wool, and they've been using it in performance mountain gear since the 80s – putting them streets ahead of other manufacturers who are only just rediscovering nature's original miracle fibre. As a bonus, this also makes their products very environmentally friendly, and the entire winter range is now climate neutral.
