Whether cycling or walking - the very light with 380 g Uphill 12 bike backpack is always a reliable companion. Despite the minimalist equipment bikers*innen can rely on full comfort. In addition to the asymmetrically opening main compartment with 12 l volume, a flat, stretchy mesh pocket and a zippered side pocket provide access to the cell phone or the bar without having to remove the lightweight bike backpack. The front lacing comes up with a triple function: Stow a windbreaker or rain jacket when the pack is full; compression when you're carrying less; and attachment for hiking poles. 3 D mesh on the back and shoulder straps provides good ventilation when biking or hiking. Thoughtfully integrated into the design, reflective elements, a hydration system outlet and the rain cover in the pack bag make the features of this universal backpack complete. All materials have a high recycled content. A certified mass balance process is used for the ultra-light, siliconized main material of the lightweight backpack. This involves extracting pyrolysis oil from used tires, which is then fed into conventional polyamide production. Chemical recycling saves up to 60% CO2. In addition, this product is climate-neutral: Emissions from materials, the manufacturing process and shipping were determined holistically and systematically reduced. Currently unavoidable emissions were completely offset via the independent non-profit organization ?myclimate? The VAUDE Green Shape label stands for an environmentally friendly, functional product made from sustainable and bluesign® certified materials.
