The Mutant 38 is a climbing pack fine-tuned for vertical ice and steep terrain. Osprey developed the model with input from local guides and athletes, ensuring optimal functionality and comfort even in the worst conditions. With a 38-litre capacity and strippable feature set, including the frame sheet, lid, and gear straps, it's easy to adapt this versatile pack to your mountain goals. Carry your helmet, ice tools, and rope securely; reinforced side straps enable A-frame ski carry. The Mutant has a narrow profile that sits close to the body - a sternum strap improves stability, and the hip belt stows out of the way for unhindered climbing movement. Ready for year-round use, the high tenacity recycled NanoFly fabrics and snow-shedding back panel ensure all-season performance.

PFC-Free
Per- and polyfluorinated chemicals (PFCs) are a family of human-made, fluorine-containing chemicals. They have long been used to add water and stain repellent properties to technical fabrics. PFCs can harm the wearer of the garment and damage nature. Incredibly resistant to breakdown, these pollutants have been found across the globe; they can remain in the environment for many years after release. In response, a growing number of PFC-Free products are being developed, designed to provide reliable water repellency without the use of these harmful chemicals.
Recycled
Patagonia first made a fleece from recycled plastic bottles in 1993, since then more and more brands have been ‘recycling rubbish’ to make the high-performance clothing and equipment that we all love to rely on in the outdoors. There are now many different types of materials and products made from waste that would have otherwise ended up in a landfill.
