Deuter Aircontact Ultra 45 + 5 Liter SL Outdoor Backpack
Deuter Aircontact Ultra 45 + 5 Liter SL Outdoor Backpack
The Deuter Aircontact Ultra, a lightweight backpack, benefits from an exceptional comfort-to-weight ratio (with a removable lid and compression straps that count for every gram). The Deuter Aircontact back system keeps weight evenly down, but above all, creates ventilation along the back. The back length is adjusted with the Clip & Loop system, and ergonomic hip fins effectively distribute the load, creating a snug, comfortable fit. The durable ripstop body fabric, made from performance fibers, is built to withstand the rigors of long-distance hiking. Deuter Aircontact Ultra Features

Deuter Aircontact Ultra Details
Aircontact Back System
The reduced contact area of the Air Spacer mesh in the Aircontact back system creates greater back ventilation while reducing weight. Simple Clip & Loop back length adjustment and ergonomically shaped hip fins create a custom fit with superior carrying comfort over long distances.
Lightweight for More Energy
Reduced to the essentials, this lightweight backpack expertly balances comfort and weight, so you can dedicate more energy to the trail. And its durable ripstop fabric made from performance fibers means this backpack can withstand anything you throw at it. The lid can be removed to shave off extra weight, using a drawstring and snap closure to close the main compartment.
Modular Gear Straps for Flexibility
The lid is removable, and the modular gear straps can be repositioned to secure various items depending on your task.
SL Women's Fit System
This model is also available in an SL version. The SL back length is specifically for women: on average, women have shorter backs than men. Therefore, the carrying system on the SL model is slightly shorter than Deuter standard backpacks. The carrying system is also specifically adapted to the female anatomy.
Deuter Aircontact System
Reduced to the essentials, this lightweight backpack expertly balances comfort and weight, allowing you to dedicate more energy to the trail. The hood can also be removed to reduce overall weight.
The new Air Spacer mesh performs three functions in one: comfort, cushioning, and ventilation. These features make this backpack a weight-optimized backpack. The addition of the Clip & Loop adjustable back length also provides a custom fit and superior carrying comfort over longer distances.
PFAS-free
This product is free of PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances). PFASs are water, dirt, and oil-repellent chemicals that are harmful to humans, animals, and the environment.
Instead, Deuter uses durable water-repellent finishes (DWR) that are harmless to human and animal health, environmentally friendly, and free of these persistent chemicals.
