Convenient load control on long trekking tours 

The Aircontact Core's back system ensures high carrying comfort and precise load control. With the VariClick system, the rucksack can be individually adjusted to your back length in five stages – with a noticeable click. ActiveBalance shoulder straps follow every movement, while the VariFlex system and ECL hip fins distribute the weight evenly. The sturdy aluminium Y-frame and breathable Air Spacer mesh promote air circulation and increase comfort – even on demanding tours.

INNOVATIVE BACK SYSTEM FEATURES
FOR COMFORTABLE LOAD CONTROL

Our new VariClick system offers five-stage back length adjustment for a tailored fit. This easy-touse feature benefits from an audible ‘click’ when in position and because it stems from the center of the pack creates an evenly adjusted length.

ActiveBalance shoulder straps

The new ActiveBalance shoulder straps have a pivoting shoulder panel that moves independently from the pivoting VariFlex hip fins for greater load stability and a more central positioning of the pack.

Comfort and Stability

The ECL (ergonomic comfort lock) system transfers the load effectively onto the hips. The Y-shaped aluminum frame gives the pack stability and, combined with the breathable Air Spacer mesh on the Aircontact back system, generates maximum airflow across the back.

30 Years of Aircontact back system

The original Aircontact back system - invented by deuter

Thirty years ago, deuter invented the Aircontact back system — redefining comfort for serious adventures. Ever since, it has stood for reliable support, smart load distribution, and performance you can feel with every step. Precise ergonomics distribute weight evenly to reduce strain and support a more relaxed spine, even under heavy loads. Ventilation channels and breathable 3D mesh ensure lasting comfort on long journeys.

Three decades of innovation. Countless adventures. One iconic back system.

WILDERNESS TREKKING - EXPEDITION - WORK & TRAVEL

For freedom-seeking adventure lovers who want to explore off the beaten track, fully self-supported, and need gear they can depend upon

EFFECTIVE CONFIGURATION FOR CLEAR ORGANIZATION

Various internal compartments offer practical organization for your gear. And outer pockets offer extra storage, and keep items clearly organized and within reach, such as tent poles. Spacious detachable hip fin pockets offer additional space – including for a 1.5-liter water bottle that slots neatly in a fold-out holster. Quick access via the front opening and through the spacious bottom compartment gives it added handling benefits. A detachable lid quickly converts into a day pack, with its own dedicated shoulder straps.

ADJUSTABLE BACK FOR A TAILORED FIT

The VariSlide back length adjustment, snug-fitting VariFlex hip fins, and pivoting ActiveFit shoulder straps create a tailored fit no matter what the capacity. While Air Spacer mesh further enhances the carrying comfort. The Y-shaped aluminum frame combined with the lumbar pad transfers the load effectively, and full Air Spacer mesh covering gives it ventilation and carrying comfort.

DURABLE CONSTRUCTION FOR RELIABILITY

Hard-wearing materials and tougher and bigger components make this backpack more robust against wear and tear, damage, and even weather impact. An important aspect on tough, self-supported journeys.
