What does SL mean on a Deuter backpack?

SL denotes Deuter’s fit for shorter backs, designed for women and people with smaller to medium builds: a shorter back, fitted shoulder straps and adapted hip stabilisers. The AIRCONTACT CORE 55+10 SL is designed for people 158–178 cm tall, with an adjustable back length of 35–56 cm.

Which Deuter backpacks have an adjustable back?

The trekking packs: the AIRCONTACT CORE models, adjustable from 42 to 62 cm on the men’s versions and from 35 to 56 cm on the 55+10 SL, plus the AIRCONTACT LITE and FUTURA AIR TREK. The adjustment lets you match the pack to your torso length within the range specified for each model.
