Vaude Hidalgo

The growing backpack for teenagers! The Hidalgo 42+8 for youth offers everything a fully equipped trekking backpack needs: ample space for a sleeping bag, sleeping pad, spare clothes, and food, an adjustable lid with a lid pocket, compression straps, side mesh pockets, attachment loops, and a practical zip pocket on the hip belt. The infinitely adjustable Tergolight back system ensures that the back size is always optimally adapted to the wearer, evenly distributing the load across shoulders and hips - this keeps spirits high even on longer trips! It is made with Eco Finish, which makes it environmentally friendly and water-repellent without fluorocarbons (PFC). The VAUDE Green Shape label stands for an environmentally friendly, functional product made from sustainable and bluesign certified materials.

Eco Finish: VAUDE products with Eco Finish are environmentally friendly and water-repellent without fluorocarbons (PFC). PFCs belong to a group of chemical compounds used for the impregnation of outer fabrics in many outdoor products. They have come under criticism for being non-biodegradable, accumulating in the body, and being suspected of being harmful to health. VAUDE has made a clear commitment to completely eliminate PFCs.

Green Shape: Green Shape is VAUDE's quality seal for products that are produced in an especially environmentally friendly manner. This encompasses the entire production cycle from development through production to care and recyclability after use. The criteria for this are strict. Products must consist of at least 90 percent organically grown cotton, recycled materials, or the wood fiber Tencel. Furthermore, they must be dyed using the environmentally friendly VAUDE eColour dyeing process or comply with the world's strictest textile environmental standard, Bluesign. VAUDE's goal is to do the best for people and nature.
