Deuter USA’s New ACT Zero 50+15 Named “Killer Deal” in Backpacker Magazine’s Gear Guide
Longmont, CO (March 26, 2013) – Deuter USA continues to receive accolades for its expanding product line. The 2013 Backpacker Magazine Gear Guide named the ACT Zero 50+15 “Best Suspension” and “Killer Deal” in the Multiday Pack category.
Designed for thru-hikers, light-and-fast enthusiasts, backpackers and mountaineers needing expandability, stability and solid suspension, the ACT Zero packs feature a removable summit pack, large front stretch pocket and optional roll-top closure. The AIRCONTACT back system utilizes breathable hollow chamber foam and superior venting to reduce perspiration by 15% that results in better performance and comfort.
“This popular backpacking pack has been touted as incredibly light, durable and versatile since its introduction,” says Christian Mason, Director of Sales and Marketing. “The new ACT Zero’s are inspired by customer feedback and hundreds of field testing days. These packs have even more ventilation than our best selling ACT Lite series and continue to receive high accolades from customers, publications and reviewers.”
Retail price is $185 MSRP and the pack is available now in both the ACT Zero 50+15 and the ACT Zero 45+15 SL, designed for women and slimmer and shorter torso lengths. Please visit the Deuter USA website for the complete line of travel bags, backpacks, daypacks, kid carriers and more.
