Db and Safeback are designing the world’s first backcountry vest integrating the Safeback SBX avalanche survival system.

As two Scandinavian brands, both focused on finding new approaches to long-standing user problems, Db and Safeback have entered a partnership to integrate the SBX into a well-balanced and user-friendly vest for backcountry skiers and snowboarders.

Db’s roots, from day one, have firmly been planted in snow sports - especially focused on seamlessly getting you and your gear to and from the mountain. By introducing this touring vest, Db’s acclaimed design approach will also be there for you on the mountain, through day trips and sidecountry missions alike.

“Our snow collection has always been about giving riders freedom to explore the mountains. With this vest, and the rest of our on-mountain packs, Db is bringing a high level of performance and durability to backcountry skiers and snowboarders where they need it the most. By integrating the Safeback SBX, we are at the forefront of functional mountain safety and design - an opportunity that could not to be missed. We are very proud to announce our partnership with Safeback, and our first product together,” said Lasse Andersen Hodne, Head of Snow at Db.

Our design team have made significant contributions to the integration of Safeback SBX into the form of a backpack. The new Backcountry Vest fully integrates Safeback SBX into its design.
