How we checked
The official Deuter product page (si-en store, product no. 3350526) for the Aircontact Core 60+10 confirmed model identity and specs verbatim: "Backpack volume 60 liters", "Weight 2360 g", "Back length 42-62 cm", "Recommended load 10-20 kg", body/reinforcement materials "500D PA TEXTURED" and "235D REC PA PLAIN", "Hydration compatible (up to 3L)", "Rain cover included", a top-loader with a "Front opening with U-shaped zipper" plus a separate bottom compartment, and the contact-type "Aircontact back system" with Air Spacer mesh (not a suspended trampoline, so ventilated back=false); it lists the price as €300.00. The Switchback Travel review corroborates the exact men's model — "On the men's side, the pack is sold in 50 + 10, 55 + 10, 60 + 10, and 70 + 10" — and states verbatim "Price: Women's $260, Men's $300" (US MSRP $300), a comparison-table row of "Polyamide (235 & 500D) ... Top, front ... 6 exterior", and clarifies the body fabric is "235-denier (D) polyamide, while the bottom and hipbelt use a thicker 500D", so material denier=235 (primary body fabric). Both pages confirm this is the men's 60+10 (not the SL/women's or another capacity), and Amazon files the item under "Internal Frame Backpacks", supporting frame type=internal; access type=hybrid reflects the top + front-panel U-zip access ("Top, front").
