Deuter Futura 30 SL vs Osprey Exos 38: which should you buy?
If saving weight is your priority, the Osprey Exos 38 wins — at 1,190 g it is 140 g (11%) lighter than the Deuter Futura 30 SL (1,330 g). That said, the heavier option may justify the extra grams with more capacity, durability or comfort, so weigh the trade-off against how you'll use it.
