VAUDE Uphill 12 black

Whether you’re cycling or walking, the ultralight Uphill 12 bike backpack, weighing just 380 g, is always a reliable companion. Despite its minimalist design, it offers cyclists plenty of comfort. In addition to the asymmetrically opening main compartment with a 12-liter capacity, a flat stretch mesh pocket and a zippered side pocket keep your phone or energy bar within easy reach without having to take off this lightweight backpack. The front lacing has three functions: it holds a windbreaker or rain jacket when the pack is full, compresses the pack when you’re carrying less, and provides a way to attach trekking poles. 3D mesh on the back and shoulder straps ensures good ventilation while cycling or hiking. Thoughtfully integrated reflective details, an outlet for a hydration system, and a rain cover in its stuff sack complete the features of this versatile backpack. All materials have a high recycled content. A certified mass balance approach is used to produce the ultralight, silicone-coated main fabric. Pyrolysis oil is extracted from used tires and fed into conventional polyamide production. This chemical recycling process saves up to 60% in CO2 emissions. The VAUDE Green Shape label stands for an environmentally friendly, functional product made from sustainable, bluesign®-certified materials.
