Description
The Aircontact Core 65+10 SL is Deuter's women's-fit trekking pack: 65 litres plus a 10 litre extendable lid, at 2360 g, for a recommended load of 10-20 kg. The Aircontact back pairs Air Spacer mesh with ventilation, and the SL fit means a shorter carrying system shaped for a woman's build, adjustable across a 35-56 cm back length.
Who it's for
Trekking with a women's fit. Deuter rate it five out of five for trekking and four for travel.
Capacity, and what actually fits
The +10 is real litres, not a model number. The lid is height-adjustable, so the pack carries 65 litres packed normally and 75 with the lid raised.
The lid also detaches, there is a wet compartment inside for anything damp, and one hip fin pocket has a fold-out holster for a 1.5 L bottle.
How it carries
An aluminium Y-frame and Deuter's ECL (Ergonomic Comfort Lock) move the load onto your hips, and Pull-Forward adjustment snugs the hip belt. The ActiveBalance shoulder straps and VariFlex hip fins pivot as you walk, and the Aircontact back keeps Air Spacer mesh against you so air can move behind the pack.
Fitting it
SL is Deuter's women's fit, and it is a genuinely different pack rather than a colourway: the carrying system is shorter than Deuter's standard packs and adapted to a woman's build. Deuter's five-stage VariClick system clicks the back length through sizes from S (36-40 cm) to L (46-50 cm), for body heights of 158-178 cm, with two anchor positions for the stabiliser straps.
Access and organisation
A wide U-shaped front zip opens the main compartment so you can reach the thing at the bottom without unpacking everything above it, and there is a separate bottom compartment as well as the drawcord top. Large side pockets open from both sides, with a front mesh pocket, hip fin pockets, a glasses stow and a key clip.
500D textured nylon main fabric with 235D recycled nylon as the secondary fabric, made without intentionally added PFAS.
Weight
2360 g empty, measuring 86 x 34 x 30 cm (L x W x D). Deuter's recommended load is 10-20 kg.
