Deuter AC Lite 21 SL Women's Backpack

The new AC Lite SL (women-specific version), is the ideal companion for day hikes. Deuter's popular hiking pack is now even lighter and, thanks to the Aircomfort carry system, has highly effective ventilation.

The SL carry system boasts a women's specific fit; the slightly shorter pack helps to distribute weight evenly. The AC Lite 21 features soft-touch shoulder straps and hip pads which are specifically designed to have a softer hand feel for added comfort when using the bag with bare shoulders/hips. An adjustable sternum belt and waist belt add stability to heavy loads, ensuring a more comfortable carry. Although lightweight, this backpack provides plenty of storage for everything that you need. The AC Lite 21 features a variety of pockets for safe and secure storage of essential items. An inside compartment is ideal for keeping your valuables safe. Side pockets provide easy storage for items you want close to hand whilst an elasticated inner compartment is great for airing wet clothes on the move and ensures that your other equipment remains dry. Pole holders, an attachment loop for your helmet holder and a goggle holder on the shoulder strap add extra convenient storage to the pack. The backpack features a rain cover for added water protection when the weather should take a turn on your hikes. The backpack is also compatible with a 2.0-litre hydration system.

Woven from 600 denier Polyester yarn and with a thick PU coating, this tear-resistant and light fabric is highly versatile. Whenever it's about keeping the weight of the backpack as low as possible with moderate stress, then this is the ideal solution. These lightweight and extremely robust fabrics are perfectly suited to the manufacture of lightweight products. Top-quality PU coating is a highly technical material that is used for lightweight Alpine and Trekking models. Also constructed from 210D Polyamide fibres, the pack is characterised by high elasticity and low weight with an extremely durable and abrasion-resistant finish. This fine, lightweight, and yet abrasion-resistant yarn is optimal for lightweight backpack construction. It contains an advanced Aircomfort system that features Contoured, softly padded shoulder straps for extra comfort when carrying a heavyweight. A durable spring steel frame provides a flexible and light structure and applies tension to the mesh. The mesh back provides comfort and top-class ventilation: the hot air dissipates freely from three sides.
