VAUDE has set itself the goal of achieving global climate neutrality along its entire supply chain. In order to meet this goal, the materials chosen will naturally play a decisive role. By using recycled materials such as used PET bottles, CO2 emissions in textile production can be roughly halved. Starting with the Winter Season 2021, the outdoor outfitter will manufacture all of its windproof softshells primarily from recycled materials. But that's not enough for the brand – from next winter, half of all VAUDE products will be made from at least 50 % recycled or biobased, renewable raw resources.

A new take on down fill: heat storage for outdoor athletes made from renewable raw materials – that was the goal of the product developers for the Monviso Down Jacket by VAUDE. Its unique outer shell is made from a biobased nylon derived from the castor bean and boasts a number of performance features that petroleum-based polyamide fabrics don't have. Biobased at its best!

When you spend a lot of time outdoors, you need a jacket that can be adapted to the current weather conditions. The Elope 3in1 Jacket is waterproof, windproof, warm and aligned to the needs of eco-conscious outdoor lovers with its resource-conserving manufacturing using recycled materials.

Lightweight, warm, lofty. Looks like down, but isn't! It's HeatSphere Eco. That's the pioneering insulation that VAUDE is using in its Batura jackets. In addition, the jacket is made of recycled materials, which means significantly less CO2-emissions are produced in its making. Keeps you warm and our winters white!

VAUDE's toasty Mineo Coat proves that style and functionality can go hand in hand. It features an innovative HeatSphere Eco insulation that was designed for environmentally conscious urbanites looking for a waterproof option for winter adventures.

When it comes to alpine ski tours, the weather is often difficult to predict. Snow flurries alternating with cold winds, the sun making an appearance in between. When you're headed out on a challenging tour, you want a warm jacket that'll have you prepared for any eventuality – like the Monviso Insulation Jacket by VAUDE!

Why should adults be the only ones to enjoy insulation jackets? The Kids Limax Insulation Jacket will keep young ones warm and toasty as well. VAUDE has outfitted this zip-in jacket with an innovative insulation, HeatSphere Eco, made from 100 % recycled polyester with several advantages over conventional down.

Say goodbye to cold feet! The Kids Kelpie II Mid STX are a dream come true for parents and their children.

A lightweight yet robust shell paired with an insulated inner vest, this waterproof jacket is the solution to your weather-based problems. Sustainable insulation made from recycled coffee grounds and PET bottles provides protection while also making a valuable contribution to environmental protection.

VAUDE continues to pursue environmental protection with a strong focus on the use of recycled materials. In the Winter Collection 2021/22, half of all products were made with biobased or recycled materials. This conserves valuable resources, energy and CO2 emissions, which also helps protect the climate. A prime example of sustainable weather protection is the Elope Padded Jacket from the Trek&Hike Collection, a warm, waterproof hooded jacket made with cutting-edge, eco-friendly technology.

Just ask any roadie – the easier your bike clothing is to put on and the more comfortable it is to wear, the more often you’ll end up taking it out of the closet.

For the Winter Season 2021, VAUDE is introducing the Cyclist Warm Rain Jacket, a jacket for bike commuters that sports a heart for environmental protection with its insulation made from recycled materials.

VAUDE is taking a major step into the post-fossil age with its new Skarvan Biobased Pants made of biobased polyamide PA 6.10. The yarn used consists of 62 % castor oil and was developed together with the polymer specialist Evonik. In addition to the ecological advantages of renewable raw materials, this new fabric features impressive functional properties such as faster drying times and high elasticity. Biobased at its best!

VAUDE has set itself ambitious targets and intends to significantly increase the proportion of recycled materials in its outdoor product range. The proportion of VAUDE products with a minimum content of 50 % renewable, biobased or recycled raw materials is to increase from the current level of just under 33 % (Summer 21 collection) to 90 % by 2024. The Elope Jacket is setting a good example. This functional jacket is largely made with recycled materials, which conserves valuable resources in production. The wind and waterproof 2-layer construction is the first choice for eco-aware hikers.

Summertime is mosquito time. All sorts of sprays, creams and candles have been developed to combat the little pests – but it takes the right clothing to make mosquito repellent absolute. VAUDE's AntiMos apparel with natural geraniol ensures that mosquitoes and other biting insects don't stand a chance while also providing effective protection against sunburn.

Summer time is not only sun time, but also thunderstorm time. If you don't think ahead, you run the risk of getting soaked. VAUDE is bringing weather protection to the big city with its Urban Life Collection. The
Mineo 2L jacket can be packed down small – and provides the best possible protection from a cloudburst. Modern design paired with outdoor functionality – that fits into any bag.

The new VAUDE sneakers UBN Redmont 2.0 feature natural materials – bio cotton, organic leather and natural rubber, and they're truly astonishing in terms of sustainable shoe production. To top it off, they're also made in Europe. The "urban conscious" target group and any sports-loving metropolitans will find a trendy companion for their adventures in the urban jungle. They're certainly the greenest shoes VAUDE has ever made.

In addition, it's partially made from biobased polyamide. It's an absolute carryall for nature lovers everywhere – and it won’t let anything come between you and your next micro-adventure!

Kids have their own ideas and requirements when it comes to outdoor gear. Especially when it comes to backpacks, kids want to have it just as good as their parents. This is exactly where the new VAUDE children's backpacks Skovi, Puck, Hylax, Ayla and Minnie score. Each has a design that's not only inspiring with its cheerful colors, but is also tailor made for children and above all, features eco-friendly production. Starting with the Summer 2021 Season, all VAUDE children's backpacks will be made of recycled materials.

E-biking often means faster speeds than traditional biking – which means you'll need better protection from the wind. The Qimsa Wind T-Shirt blocks out wind but is also breathable, offering the best possible wearing comfort on extended bike tours.
