Product description

waterproof hf-welding
with small outer pocket and QMR 2.0 attachment system for gear racks 8 to 16 mm diameter
made from recycled materials in Germany

The VAUDE Manufacture in Germany makes the waterproof rear panniers Aqua Back Plus from recycled materials with hf-welding so they're absolutely waterproof. So whether you're just doing the shopping or headed out on an epic bike adventure, the Aqua Back Plus will keep your load dry. A practical wrap-around closure allows it to be compressed to just the size you need and it's absolutely watertight when sealed shut. An interior organizer pocket with zip provides secure storage for small items or documents. The rear panniers are outfitted with a sturdy hardback panel and can be securely attached to gear racks with a tube diameter up to a 16 mm using a QMR 2.0 system. The hooks can be easily adjusted with user-friendly dials and bags can be locked directly to the QMR hook using a U-lock (such as the TSA Lock II). Delivery includes two panniers for the rear wheel (1 pair), each with a volume of 25.5 liters, which can be mounted on gear racks with a tube diameter up to 16 mm. The Aqua Back Plus rear panniers have an added bonus: each has a front pocket attached with hf-welding so they're absolutely waterproof, providing easy-access space for your keys or wallet. The Aqua Back Plus can be complemented with any of these practical accessory bags: SortYour Back, SortYour Business and the Addita Bag. A detachable carrying strap allows for comfortable carrying over the shoulder. The bag has reflective elements and are made with eco-friendly, water repellent Eco Finish without the use of fluorocarbons (PFC) The VAUDE Green Shape label stands for environmentally-friendly, functional products made from sustainable materials.

Which backpack fits my back length?

It's easy to find out which VAUDE backpack fits your back length: simply measure yourself with a tape measure and compare your back length with our table.

"L" stands for Large, i.e. a large size, "XL" for Extra Large, an extra large size. If no specific size information appears in the product name, it is usually a standard size.

Sleeping bag size information

The product names of some sleeping bags include size information. The designation "S" stands for small, i.e. a small size, while "XL" stands for extra large. If no specific size information such as "S" or "XL" appears in the product name, it is usually a standard size or "Regular". (Indicated sizes in cm)

Sleeping bag zip position

Zip	Info
left	The zip is on the left, suitable for right-handed people
right	The zip is on the right, suitable for left-handers

A few tips on choosing the right zip position: Right-handed people choose a sleeping bag with the zip on the left, as they can comfortably reach across the body to the zip with their right hand. Left-handed people choose a sleeping bag with a zip on the right so that they can easily reach the zip with their left hand. If you want to combine two sleeping bags, make sure you choose one with a zip on the right and one with a zip on the left. The choice of sleeping bag should also take into account the position of the tent entrance so that you can always get in and out comfortably.

How to measure correctly?

To ensure your VAUDE clothing fits perfectly, it is important to take your measurements correctly. Here's how:

Chest: Measure the circumference at the widest point of your chest – ideally while standing upright with your arms hanging loosely at your sides.
Waist: Measure the circumference at the narrowest point of your waist – usually just above the belly button.
Hips: Measure around your hips at the widest point of your buttocks.
Inseam: Measure straight down from the top of your inner thigh (crotch) to your ankle.
