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.

Measure your back length

Backpack sizes

Some of the backpacks' product names include size information. The designation "M" stands for medium, i.e. a medium size. This medium size is universally suitable and is perfect for most users. "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.

Size	Height
Unisex: XL	ca. 180 cm - 203 cm
Unisex: M/L	ca. 162 cm - 185 cm
Women's Size	ca. 155 cm - 178 cm

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)

Size	Height
Regular	165-190
S	150-170
XL	185-205
Kids	105-135
Youth	130-165

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.

5/10 would not buy again

Review by Matthias
Feb 23, 2026

First the good things, fits well and it's warm and comfortable. Not at all waterproof or repellent what so ever, it wasn't even raining when I tested them out. My legs+butt+groin was wet within 15min of pedalling through a soaked forest just from the splashing water. 5/10 - Would not buy again.

Response

Dear Matthias,
Thank you for your feedback.
According to the product description, the pants are windproof, water-repellent and dirt-repellent, but not completely waterproof. We recommend wearing additional rain pants/shorts in wet conditions.

Review by Hannes

Die Hose wäre grundsätzlich gut. Allerdings frage ich mich, welche Schnittmuster verwendet werden. Bund zu weit, obwohl der Klett sich nicht mehr enger stellen lässt, gleichzeitig am Oberschenkel zu eng und dadurch häufiges Herunterrutschen des Bundes und Hochrutschen der Hose am Knöchel. Das könnte besser gelöst sein. Aber die Hose hält warm.

Super Übergangshose. Stretchy. Ausreichend Taschen. Schützt vor Wind und am Hintern ist man spritzwassergeschützt.

Trägt sich sehr angenehm und hält warm. Mit meiner Innenbeinlänge von 92 cm könnte sie etwas länger sein. Im Winter trage ich aber meist höhere Fahrradschuhe, daher passt es.
