From RockCreek:
"The Aircontact 75+10 Backpack by Deuter Packs is the ultimate in a mountaineering and trekking pack. With up to 5200 cubic inches of space, and a carrying capacity of 75 pounds, there isn't much you can't carry with you into the backcountry (well, besides your kitchen sink). Carrying heavy loads, means you need an excellent suspension system to help make it easier. With the Aircontact suspension you get an anatomic X-frame stay system that offers you torsional rigidity and flexibility to move how you need to, without losing touch with your pack. Which means no more wobblies while you try to cross the freezing river on that wet log. A specialized foam is located in certain areas of the pack that pump air in and out as you move. This gives you awesome ventilation and is super comfy while you haul your pack to your next adventure. The Aircontact also has head room. No more staring at the ground while you walk, or limited head movement when you try to stare up at the top of a huge cliff. Deuter designed this pack with a contoured head molding, that gives you freedom of your neck and head to move easily and without restriction. **To read more about the Aircontact Suspension System, click on the sizing chart."

"This thing is a comfortable tank! It's heavy. If you're looking to go lightweight, this is not where you need to be looking. However, if you're looking for a solid, well made pack with all of the bells and whistles, this is it. I prefer to use mine when I'm packing bulkier loads in colder weather or when I know it will be days before I can resupply."

"A hiking bag that is more spacious fits to my size. I could take all of my gear and I could camp for more than a week.

Its aircontact also makes me comfortable especially on tropical weather here in Philippines. I could also use this not just for hiking but also for my out-of-town travels.

I'm very happy and satisfied with my Deuter Aircontact."

"This pack is amazing for extended or multi-day use. I have packed it up to 50 pounds and felt very little discomfort over a 3 day trip to Kentucky's Red River Gorge.

It fits perfectly to most if not all body types, being that it is fully adjustable to height and girth."

"I hiked a ton of gear high into the mountains to set up a base camp and climb a 14,000' peak. This pack performed flawlessly. It held everything I needed with room for more, including the bear canister. Very comfortable pack. The pack cover performed well during the downpour after we set up camp."

"This pack is very easily adjustable for torso length and hauls heavy loads easily with comfort. The hip belt fit me very nice and is well padded and rigid enough to take the weight off my shoulders. This is a heavy pack that looks bomber proof."

"Perfect backpack!!

The best I have owned for years... The hip belt is great, and takes all the load from my shoulders. Perfect anatomical shape! Awesome ventilation, my back stays cool after hours of walking. Very large, a lot of pockets, strong construction.

I love my Aircontact!"

"I purchased the pack as it was allegedly the best the shop had. Quite frankly I don't think it is good enough to take the washing. Deuter was good but now that they source product from Vietnam you get 3rd world lack of quality at developed nations' price."
