Product Description

Trail Spacer 8

Compact, lightweight backpack for sporty hiking, fast mountain tours and mountain biking

  • extremely close fitting with excellent stability
  • good ventilation, high wearing comfort due to 3D knitted suspension system
  • climate neutral; environmentally friendly production thanks to an innovative end-of-life tire recycling program using a mass balance process
This multi-award winning lightweight backpack fits like a vest – the Trail Spacer with a volume of 8 liters and sophisticated features is a perfectly fitting backpack for fast mountain tours, mountain biking and sporty hiking. The innovative, comfortable 3D suspension system is now even more eco-friendly – it's knitted in one piece from climate-friendly recycled yarn! The three-dimensional structure of the back offers a good microclimate for your back and comfortable padding as well in Trail Spacer 8. A variety of padded zones allows great freedom of movement, excellent air circulation and outstanding distribution of the load. In addition, the straps of this lightweight backpack with various storage and pockets provide space for gels, power bars, your phone, etc. A hydration bladder, rain jacket and first aid kit can be stowed in the main compartment. You can access the pole holder and compression straps even when you're wearing the pack. The backpack's recycled polyamide primary material was produced using a certified mass balance process sourced from end-of-life tires and other recyclables. This reduces CO2 emissions by up to 60%. Because the suspension system is knit to form, it can be produced without remnant materials. The lightweight backpack is also climate neutral. We’ve analyzed and systematically reduced all emissions arising from materials, manufacturing, and shipping. Emissions that are currently unavoidable were fully offset by the independent non-profit organization myclimate. The VAUDE Green Shape label stands for environmentally-friendly, functional products made from sustainable and bluesign® certified materials. Note: Always wash the backpack by hand.

Material

Mass Balance Recycling – chemical recycling process
Mass Balance Recycling – chemical recycling process

Recycled polyamide that makes use of a certified mass balance process in which pyrolysis oil is extracted from used tires and fed into a conventional polyamide production process. This chemical recycling methods conserves fossil raw resources. Another advantage: compared to conventional polyamide production, 60% less CO2 emissions are produced*. The polyamide obtained in this eco-friendly process has just the same properties as conventional polyamide made from crude oil.

• robust, durable polyamide with best freedom of movement
• innovative tire recycling using a mass balance process
• climate-friendly and CO2-conserving crude oil alternative
