Deuter ACT Lite 40+10 hiking bag

The ACT Lite is equipped with the Air contact system which promotes back breathing. The back cushions are made of a special breathable functional foam with hollow compartments.
The parallel arrangement of the cushions in the ACT Lite range creates an additional ventilation channel.

Technologies used:

Air contact Lite System

• Adjustment straps allow exact positioning of the bag on the back. Thanks to a special "triglide" buckle, the position of the adjustment strap on the shoulder strap can be slightly offset. On Aircontact models from 50+10 SL, two attachment points placed at different heights make it possible to obtain the optimal angle of position adjustment straps when adjusting to back length.

• Coussins lombaires en mousse fonctionnelle à compartiment creux, spéciale et respirante: ce système de contact direct avec le corps permet à l'air de se renouveler à chaque mouvement grâce à un effet de pompe. Cela signifie 15% de transpiration de moins qu’avec un sac à dos ordinaire (résultat obtenu lors d’une étude de marché entreprise par Gabriel L.&T. en collaboration avec l’Université d’Erlangen).

• The ergonomic stabilizers on the hips are made of several layers. For better carrying comfort, the inner layer is made of soft foam covered with 3D AirMesh mesh. The stiffer foam outer layer maintains the ergonomic shape and shifts the load to the hips. Lateral compression straps on the stabilizers regulate load transfer and increase stability. On ACT Lite stabilizers, this bi-laminate construction is optimized to combine weight reduction and load distribution. Aircontact models designed for heavier loads optimize stability and load transfer thanks to polyethylene reinforcement between the foam layers.

• Ergonomic X frame made of crossed aluminum frames. This system, both flexible and stable, reacts to every movement of the body and transfers the load to the lumbar belt.

• Ergonomic 3D Air Mesh shoulder straps.

• Vari-Quick system for an ideal individual fit.
