VAUDE Uphill 8 Backpack, Willow Green, Standard Size

untain tour a pleasure: the 340g ultra-light Uphill 8 is minimalist while ensuring a high level of comfort. The asymmetrical opening main compartment offers 8 litres of volume, thanks to a flat, stretchy mesh pocket and a zipped side pocket, you always have access to the mobile phone or the latch without having to remove the bicycle backpack. The multi-functional lacing on the front has three functions: storing a jacket when the backpack is full; compression in depth with less luggage and attachment option for hiking poles. To ensure that the body is well ventilated, we have integrated 3D mesh on the back and on the shoulder straps. Reflective elements, a hydration system outlet and the rain cover in the pack bag complete the features of this all-rounder. All materials have a high recycled content. A certified mass balancing process is used for the ultra-light, siliconised main material of the lightweight backpack. Pyrolysis oil is obtained from old tyres, which is supplied to conventional polyamide production. Chemical recycling saves up to 60% CO2. In addition, this product is climate-neutral: the emissions from materials, manufacturing process and shipping have been holistically determined and systematically reduced. Currently unavoidable emissions have been fully compensated via the independent non-profit organisation “myclimate”. The Vaude Green Shape label stands for an environmentally friendly, functional product made from sustainable and bluesign® certified materials.
