Deuter Aircontact Pro 2025 Backpack – perfect for your biggest adventures

The Deuter Aircontact Pro is the latest high-end backpack from Deuter – the German brand specializing in backpacks and sleeping bags. With its rugged construction, adaptability, organization, and comfortable Aircontact back system, the Aircontact Pro trekking backpack is the ideal companion for outdoor freedom lovers who want to explore all corners of the world carrying everything they need on their backs.

Breaking free from the exhausting daily routine, going offline, and being free of obligations – that’s the appeal for many embarking on a backpacking trip or a long-distance trek. The goal is to relax, reconnect with oneself, and be harmonizing with nature – whether in the Alps, the Andes, or the mountain ranges of Brazil. But to enjoy such adventures far from the hustle and bustle of civilization, you need the right gear.

Features of the Deuter Aircontact Pro backpacks

If you’re on the move for days carrying your own gear, the last thing you want is back pain. The Aircontact Pro features the Aircontact back system, which includes VariSlide technology – a strap height adjustment system that allows the backpack to be tailored precisely to the user’s back length.

The VariFlex hip fins and pivoting ActiveFit shoulder straps further improve the fit of the backpack to each person’s body shape and frame. The load adjustment straps at the top of each shoulder strap can be positioned at two different heights, allowing for fine-tuned control of the distance between the pack and your back, improving fit and offering more comfort and support.

A Y-shaped aluminum stabilizer frame and lumbar padding help distribute the load effectively. The Air Spacer mesh used on the back panel ensures good ventilation – even when carrying heavy loads.

The Aircontact Pro is built from tough fabric, making it a durable and robust trekking backpack. It will keep your gear safe whether you’re crossing rocky and rugged terrain or dense forest and jungle.

The Aircontact Pro comes in two regular-size versions: 75+10 or 85+10; and in two women’s-specific SL versions: 65+10 SL and 75+10 SL. These volumes give you enough room to carry everything you need for long hikes or travel without compromising on gear organization and accessibility. It also has space for a hydration system of up to 3 liters. Plus, there’s a side pocket that fits a 1.5-liter foldable reservoir – perfect for those trail sections where water isn’t readily available.

Smart storage and quick access options include the separate bottom compartment, a U-shaped front opening, a zippered front pocket, an internal mesh compartment, and a valuables pocket. The Aircontact Pro’s lid can also be detached and turned into a daypack – convenient for city walks or short excursions. These trekking backpacks also come with a built-in rain cover.

It is ClimatePartner certified and PFAS-free – both positive aspects for backpackers and trekkers concerned about the environmental impact of manufacturing outdoor gear.
