VAUDE Unisex Ahead 48+ Backpacks

When every gram counts when trekking: the lightweight trekking backpack offers high wearing comfort and low weight - ideal for fast hikes and pilgrims. The ultra-light trekking backpack is back-friendly padded: the cut-out on the lower back reduces pressure on the sacroiliac joint and prevents back pain. The Tergolight Comfort Space carrying system distributes the load optimally. Back length and load positioning are individually adjustable. The airy Ergoshape shoulder straps of the Ahead 48+ allow enough freedom of movement for the arms on steep climbs, thanks to their special shape. Energy bars or mobile phone are at hand in the pockets on shoulder straps and waist belt. From the elastic side pockets, water bottle, hat etc. can be removed without taking off the trekking backpack. Trekking poles can be easily attached when walking. Moist equipment can be stored in the spacious front compartment and dries off thanks to mesh inserts. The variable daisy chain holds helmet and crampons. The top loader has an extra compartment for the hydration bladder. The replacement buckle on the upper compression strap may replace defective buckles on the go. The height-adjustable, removable lid expands the volume by an additional 8 litres and can also be carried separately as a waist bag. The material of the Ahead 48+ is made from a mix of 100% recycled polyester and polyamide with a bio-based content of 62% castor oil - an extremely light, tear-resistant, sustainable material. The Vaude Green Shape label stands for an environmentally friendly, functional product made from bluesign® certified, sustainable materials.
