Vaude Asymmetric 52+8L Backpack - black

Versatile trekking backpack for hut-to-hut hikes, alpine trekking, pilgrimages, and backpacking 

• Height-adjustable, back-friendly carrying system
• Extremely comfortable to wear

From hut to hut—and beyond! The Tergolight Comfort Space carrying system ensures optimal weight distribution. The back length, load positioning, and Ergoshape shoulder straps are adjustable to fit your body size. The gap in the lower back padding makes this trekking backpack back-friendly: it reduces pressure on the sacroiliac joint and helps prevent back pain. The thickly padded hip belt provides relief and a comfortable fit. The special shape of the shoulder straps allows plenty of freedom of movement for the arms.

The main compartment of the trekking backpack can be accessed from the top and the front. The divider separating it from the bottom compartment can be quickly removed to create more space in the main compartment. Everything that needs to be quickly accessible while on the go fits into the elastic front pocket with optimized ventilation—wet gear can also dry there. The elastic side bags are easily accessible from the side without having to take the trekking backpack off.

The daisy chain holds crampons and other gear, while the additional gear loop accommodates trekking poles or ice axes—ideal for alpine terrain! The two compression straps on each side keep the trekking backpack streamlined, as does the top compression strap with a spare buckle, which can be used for repairs on the trail should a buckle break. The height-adjustable lid provides 8 liters of additional volume.
