DEUTER – AIRCONTACT PRO 55 + 15 SL [summer 2013]

Published by Mountainblog on 05/17/2013.

The heavyweight haulage specialist shines on the treks with a host of smart details and a clean, fresh design.

The super robust new outer material guarantees longevity, while the Vari Flex system gives this pack the comfortable edge when it comes to carrying heavy loads.

Its mobile hip fins diligently follow every movement you make, making even the toughest terrain passable without losing balance. The fins distribute the load evenly to the hips, thus reducing fatigue, and providing freedom of movement.

The aluminium stays combine with the Deuter Vari Flex to create a carry system that brings together the critical performance qualities of stability, efficient load transfer, perfect load control and incredible flexibility.
