New for 2009! Combining load-bearing capability, convenient access features and a streamlined profile, the Deuter ACT Trail 32 is a high-performance day pack. Numerous external pockets and lash points grant backcountry versatility to the ACT Trail 32. Built on the concept that it's easier to carry heavy loads when the backpack and wearer form a single entity, the ACT Trail 32's Aircontact System relies on the compression and expansion of twin hydro and thermo-phobic foam columns to provide ventilation and load-carrying comfort. The channel between the two pads allows air to flow between your back and the pack itself. A flexible, tensioned Delrin frame offers lightweight support and stability. Soft, breathable fabrics and ventilated pads in the shoulder straps and waistbelt help to keep you cool and comfortable on the trail. A sternum strap and adjustable load-lifter straps further enhance fit. 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. A buckled lid allows top access to the ACT Trail 32's 1950 cubic inch packbag. Further ensuring your ability to quickly reach the contents of your pack, a large zippered entry offers full front access to the packbag. A large elastic front stash pocket is ideal for stashing extra layers and is expandable enough to even accommodate a helmet. A bungee system on the exterior of the pocket provides an additional place to lash gear. A side mesh pocket on one side of the pack and a zippered pocket on the alternate side offer additional storage space. Other special features of the ACT Trail 32 include trekking pole loops, an internal valuable pocket and an integrated SOS panel. A lined internal pocket and a built-in tube exit point make the ACT Trail 32 hydration compatible. The Deuter ACT Trail 32 backpack has a Granite/Black color scheme.
When I pack for vacations, I tend to fall into the following two traps: I pack too much. And by "too much," I mean that I literally have to sit on my suitcase to get it closed. It then resembles something my sister fondly refers to as "the bloated whale." I pack too much black clothing. It's easy, yes, because everything matches, but it's boring. For a beach vacation, you shouldn't pack too mu...
The first question when you’re buying a backpack is, how will this backpack be used? Are you using it to carry school books or for a hiking trip in the wilderness? Are you an urban commuter looking for a durable messenger bag, or a parent looking for an affordable backpack for a young student? Do you need a daypack or a serious backcountry pack that will get you through two weeks of outdoor ...
