Vaude Uphill

Makes every mountain tour a pleasure: The very lightweight Uphill 8, at just 340 g, is minimalist yet provides a high level of comfort. The asymmetrically opening main compartment offers 8 liters of volume. With a flat, stretchy mesh pocket and a zip-secured side pocket, you can always access your phone or energy bar without having to take off the bike backpack. The multifunctional lacing on the front has three functions: storing a jacket when the backpack is full, compressing the depth with less luggage, and securing trekking poles. To ensure good ventilation for the body, we have integrated 3D mesh on the back and shoulder straps. Reflective elements, a hydration system outlet, and a rain cover in the pack bag complete the features of this multifunctional talent. All materials have a high recycling content. The ultra-light, silicone-coated main material of the lightweight backpack is produced using a certified mass balance process. This process extracts pyrolysis oil from old tires, which is then used in conventional polyamide production. Through chemical recycling, up to 60% CO2 emissions are saved. Additionally, this product is climate-neutral: emissions from materials, manufacturing processes, and shipping have been comprehensively assessed and systematically reduced. Currently unavoidable emissions have been fully compensated through 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.
