Deuter ACT Zero 60+10 (2008) Internal Frame Backpack

Product Highlights

Updated for 2008! Designed for the experienced hiker intent on traveling fast and light without having to sacrifice fit and comfort, the Deuter ACT Zero 60+10 backpack boasts the same suspension and adjustable harness system found on Deuter's popular Aircontact series while checking in at a feather-light 3 lb. 1 oz.!

With a standard capacity of 3650 cubic inches, increasing to 4250 cubic inches with the use of the extendible spindrift collar, the ACT Zero 60+10 is ideal for overnight or weekend outings. The experienced, ultra-lightweight devotee can even consider using the ACT Zero 60+10 for multi-day excursions.

Built on the concept that it's easier to carry heavy loads when the backpack and wearer form a single entity, Deuter's Aircontact System relies on the compression and expansion of hydro and thermo-phobic Aircontact foam to provide ventilation and load-carrying comfort. An anatomically-profiled X-frame system in the ACT Zero 60+10 offers a balance of rigidity and flexibility, distributing weight more precisely. Further enhancing fit, Deuter's Vari-Quick harness system adjusts easily to accommodate varying torso lengths. A strongly woven strap "ladder" in the back of the pack allows you to select the desired position for optimal comfort and load distribution. Soft, breathable fabrics and ventilated pads in the back, shoulder straps and waistbelt further help to keep you cool and comfortable on the trail. Side compression straps enable you to reduce and expand the size of the pack body as needed, further securing contents and ensuring stabilization of the load.

The pack body of the ACT Zero 60+10 backpack is a single, large compartment. Internal and external zippered pockets on the lid of the ACT Zero 60+10 provide access to further storage. A large elastic front stash pocket offers convenient, easy-access storage for gear or extra layers of clothing.

Other special features of the ACT Zero 60+10 include trekking pole loops, ice axe loops and top lid attachment rings. Two large side mesh pockets allow for transportation of gear or water bottles and a lined internal pocket, built-in tube exit point, and tube clip on the shoulder strap make the ACT Zero 60+10 hydration compatible. An informative SOS panel is imprinted on the underside of the lid, providing valuable instructions for emergency situations.

The Deuter ACT Zero 60+10 backpack has a Granite/Black color scheme.
