Deuter · Access 55

Opens like a suitcase, carries like a pack: 55 litres for getting away.

At the hostel, you put the pack on the bed and open the whole front: your clothes are right there, folded, held by the straps, with nothing to dig out from the top. On the morning you leave, the cover zips over the shoulder straps, a padlock goes through the zip pullers, and the Access 55 goes in the hold like a suitcase. When you arrive, it goes back on your back.

Travel · Several weeks · Checked luggage

A suitcase you carry on your back.

Best for

Built for long-haul travel, one pack for everything.

Six uses rated from 1 to 5: travel well out in front, hiking only now and then.

  • Travel

    5 out of 5

    What it's for: several weeks away with a single pack, on your back or in the hold.

  • Hiking

    2 out of 5

    A walk to the hut or the hostel, not a day in the mountains.

  • Everyday

    1 out of 5

    At 55 litres, it's far too big for town.

  • Office

    1 out of 5

    For getting to work, it's oversized.

  • Photography

    1 out of 5

    A camera body can travel between your clothes, but it isn't a camera bag.

  • School, university

    1 out of 5

    On a campus, 55 litres is too much.

What fits inside

55L

55 litres that open from the front, like a suitcase.

A zip runs right round the front: the pack opens flat, and you can pack or search without pulling everything out of the top. Inside straps hold your clothes in place, a zipped compartment keeps your papers apart, and the main compartment's zip pullers lock with a padlock.

  • Clothes, held in place by the packing straps
  • Shoes, kept apart in their own compartment
  • Passport and papers, in the zipped inside compartment
Contact back of the Access 55 Atlantic Ink: padded back, shoulder straps and hip belt

The back system

A padded back that sits close and carries on your hips.

  1. ContactA padded back on a round-profile spring steel frame: the pack stays close to your body and the load is spread out.
  2. The shoulder strapsPadded and ergonomically shaped, with load lifters and a sternum strap with continuous adjustment.
  3. The hip beltPadded hip fins; it tightens as you pull forwards, which also pulls in the sides of the pack.
  4. StowawayBefore it goes in the hold, a zipped cover closes over the shoulder straps and hip belt.

Deuter

Augsburg, 1898: mailbags first, then backpacks.

Since 1898

Hans Deuter opens a canvas workshop in Augsburg, Bavaria, and is soon sewing mailbags for the Royal Bavarian Post. In 1938, the first ascent of the Eiger North Face is made with a Deuter pack on the climber's back.

The mesh back

In 1984 came Aircomfort, a tensioned mesh that holds the pack away from your back. The Futura series took it up in 1999, and the Futura Pro carries it today.

Guaranteed, then repaired

Deuter guarantees its packs for 2 years against defects in materials and workmanship, on top of the legal guarantee, then repairs them at a shared cost. For a pack bought from Eiken, the claim goes through us.

Eiken's take

Why we chose it
A pack that thinks about the baggage carousel as much as your back: it opens wide like a suitcase, locks with a padlock and hides its shoulder straps before the hold, then carries on the hip belt the day you have to walk to the station.
Worth knowing
64 cm tall for 55 litres: it travels in the hold, not in the cabin.
Who it's for
If you're going away for several weeks with a single pack, from hostel to station, and want to find your things without emptying everything out.

Baptiste, Eiken

Questions

What are the dimensions and weight of the Access 55?

64 × 36 × 22 cm (height, width, depth, pack full) and 1,640 g empty, for 55 litres. Recommended load: 5 to 10 kg.

Can the Access 55 go in the cabin?

At 64 cm tall when full, it's over the most common cabin size limits: plan on the hold. Before check-in, its harness stows under a cover and the main zip locks with a padlock. Every airline sets its own rules: check yours.

Is the Access 55 waterproof?

No, it isn't made for rain: in steady rain, water gets in through the seams and zips. Put anything that mustn't get wet in a pouch.

Is the Access 55 the right size for me?

It's recommended for 158 to 195 cm, for a back length of 38 to 54 cm. The padded Contact back sits close to your body, and the padded hip belt takes the load on your hips.

Can I go hiking with the Access 55?

To walk to the hostel or for a few hours on foot, yes: it's rated 2 out of 5 for hiking. For a proper day in the mountains, a hiking pack like the Futura Pro 40 carries the load better and lets air reach your back.
