Deuter Men’s Aircontact Core 60+10 Trekking Backpack (2024) – Graphite Shale
If you’re after a backpack that’s as geared up for serious trekking as you are, the Deuter Aircontact Core 60+10 deserves a proper look. It’s made for keen explorers and outdoor lovers who want a pack that blends comfort, toughness, and adaptability all in one neat bundle. Whether you’re off for a weekend wander or a longer trek, this rucksack adjusts to whatever you throw at it.
Comfort and fit that really go the distance
The Aircontact back system is a clever bit of kit, featuring a wide ventilation channel teamed with Air Spacer Mesh to keep your back well-ventilated – even when the sun’s blazing. The VariSlide lets you tweak the back length on the fly, so it fits like a glove every time – no messing about. Plus, the VariFlex ECL hip fins move with you, soaking up the load and giving you more freedom when you’re scrambling or climbing. And that ergonomic lumbar pad? It’s there to make sure your hips take the brunt of the weight, sparing your shoulders the strain.
Smart features that make life easier
Want to stay hydrated on the go? No worries – the pack’s compatible with Deuter’s Streamer 3.0 hydration system. The removable compression straps aren’t just for show; they’re perfect for lashing on your sleeping mat, tent, or any bulky gear that won’t fit inside. The height-adjustable lid gives you an extra 10 litres of space if you need it, while the two zipped hip belt pockets keep your essentials within arm’s reach – one even boasts an expandable pocket that’ll snugly hold a 1.5-litre water bottle.
Built with the planet in mind
It’s heartening to see that over half the materials used are recycled and bluesign® certified, so you’re doing your bit for the environment without skimping on quality. The outer fabric sports a PFAS-free water-repellent coating, meaning water beads right off without relying on nasty chemicals – a proper win-win.
Who’s this pack for?
If you’re into longer trekking trips and want a versatile rucksack that won’t let you down, this one’s right up your street. It’s especially handy if you like to fine-tune your kit depending on the trip. Some might worry it’s too technical or fiddly, but it strikes a cracking balance between high-performance features and user-friendly design. Give it a whirl – you might just find it becomes your go-to companion on countless adventures.
