Nikwax Hydrophobic Down Plus

An extra long, eco-friendly multi-talent for trekking and bike travel for people over 190 cm: the Hochgrat 500 XL DWN is exceptionally versatile and its comfortable features ensure a restful night's sleep. Its high-quality, 600+ cuin RDS-certified down fill with eco-friendly DWR from Nikwax isn't impaired by moisture and ensures a warm and cozy microclimate. Asymmetrical H-chambers hold the down in place and prevent cold spots so you can sleep soundly through the night. The bag’s inner lining of this down sleeping bag is luxuriantly smooth thanks to its soft, recycled polyester Taffeta. An ergonomic zip, snug fitting thermal collar and warm hood are perfectly adapted to the needs of weary adventurers. This makes the Hochgrat 500 XL DWN a real multi-talent — a great choice as a compact sleeping bag for trekking that can be used in spring, summer and autumn. The VAUDE Green Shape label stands for environmentally-friendly, functional products made from sustainable materials.

Mummy – a design with high thermal efficiency

Tapered mummy bags are the most popular shape for sleeping bags. And that’s for a good reason. The form-fitting design narrows towards your feet, meaning that less air needs to be heated in your VAUDE sleeping bag, which is very heat-efficient. Less fabric also saves resources making your VAUDE sleeping bag lighter and more compressible. The hood shape and thermal collar (not included in all models) prevent cold air from penetrating – mummy sleeping bags are the perfect companion in cold and challenging weather.

• optimal thermal efficiency due to a form fitting shape
• lightweight and very compressible
• perfect for challenging tours in any weather

H-Chamber Construction – baffles keep the down in place

All VAUDE down sleeping bags have a baffle construction inside for the fill. The chambers divide the inside of your sleeping bag to keep the down in place. We use a slanted H-chamber construction that effectively prevents cold spots and provides an optimal warmth-to-weight ratio. Down combines a low weight with outstanding thermal properties.

Recycled PET: high quality polyester made from recycled PET bottles

Collect, clean, granulate and spin into high quality polyester yarn – that’s what’s involved in the recycling of PET bottles. In the manufacturing process, we can reduce energy consumption and CO2 emissions by up to 50% while completely eliminating the use of new fossil fuels. This conserves resources and keeps our ecological footprint small.

Eco Finish – environmentally friendly water and stain resistant finish

This water and stain resistant finish is applied to the outer fabric of your product so that water pearls up and runs right off – without the use of environmentally harmful fluorocarbons (PFCs). This protects you from the rain and keeps the planet clean. Regular reapplication is necessary for permanent waterproofing and stain resistance.

• environmentally friendly water repellency and stain resistance
• optimal protection from rain and moisture
• no use of environmentally harmful fluorocarbons (PFC)
