PRESENTATION

The Millet Cosmic 28 ARS is a 28 L avalanche airbag backpack designed for demanding ski touring, combining safety, compactness, and modularity. It features an Alpride system (cartridge) ensuring a quick deployment of the airbag, with the bottle included for immediate activation in case of emergency. The bag weighs approximately 2,600 g (system included) and uses PFC-free recycled materials to combine durability and environmental respect. It offers generous front access and a dedicated safety gear pocket for optimized storage of the shovel, probe, and accessories. The carrying system allows diagonal (or A-Frame) ski attachment, vertical snowboard carry, as well as straps for ice axe, poles, and rope, while an integrated net secures the helmet. The waist belt is equipped with zippered pockets, the shoulder straps are ergonomic and adjustable, and an adjustable chest strap with a whistle completes the carrying equipment. Its compact “low profile” construction minimizes bulk and maintains the bag’s stability, even when loaded. The Millet Cosmic 28 ARS offers a high-performance and balanced solution for alpine hikers concerned with the combination of safety, lightness, and functionality.
