VAUDE Uphill 12 backpack Travel backpack Black Polyamide, Polyester, Polyurethane, Silicone

Lightweight bike backpack
Whether your biking or walking, the Uphill 12 bike backpack weighing in at just 380 grams is always a reliable companion. Despite the minimalist features, cyclists can count on full comfort. The main compartment with an asymmetrical opening offers a volume of 12 liters; a flat, stretchy mesh pocket and a zip side pocket provide access to your phone or snacks without having to take off the lightweight bike pack. The front lacing serves three functions: storage for a wind or rain jacket when the main compartment is full, compression for smaller loads and attachment for trekking poles. 3 D mesh on the back and shoulder straps provides good ventilation for biking or hiking. Reflective elements are integrated into the design, a hydration system port and a rain cover in the pack bag complete the features of this multi-talent. All materials have a high recycled content. The ultralight siliconized main material of this lightweight pack was made using a certified mass balance process in which pyrolysis oil is extracted from end-of-life tires and fed into a conventional polyamide production process. Chemical recycling reduces CO2 emissions by up to 60%. In addition, this product is climate neutral. We’ve analyzed and systematically reduced all emissions arising from materials, manufacturing, and shipping. Emissions that are currently unavoidable were fully offset by the independent non-profit organization myclimate. The VAUDE Green Shape label stands for environmentally-friendly, functional products made from sustainable and bluesign certified materials.
