Deuter Aircontact Ultra 40+5

Our View – Deuter Aircontact Ultra 40+5:

The Deuter Aircontact Ultra 40+5 is a lightweight backpack benefits from an outstanding comfort-to-weight ratio (with a removable lid and compression straps when every gram counts). The deuter Aircontact back system equally keeps the weight down, but above all creates ventilation across the back. The length of the back is adjusted via Clip & Loop system and ergonomic hip fins create a snug, comfortable fit while distributing the load effectively. The hard-wearing ripstop body fabric made from performance fibres is also built to withstand the rigors of thru-hiking.

The reduced contact surface of the Aircontact back system's Air Spacer mesh cuts weight while generating increased ventilation across the back. The simple Clip & Loop back length adjustment and ergonomically shaped hip fins create a tailored fit with superior carrying comfort over long distances.

Reduced to the essentials, the lightweight pack expertly balances comfort and weight, so you can devote more energy to the trail. And its hardwearing ripstop fabric made from performance fibres means this pack can withstand anything you throw at it. The lid can be removed to shave off extra weight, using a drawcord and press stud closure to seal the main compartment.

Depending on what you're undertaking, the lid can be detached, and the modular gear straps repositioned to attach a range of items.
