Technical details:

WINDPROOF PRO:
The combination of two different material technologies. Windproof, robust, wind-resistant and breathable materials are used. These are strategically placed at the body to perfectly support the athlete’s performance.

STRETCH:
The material’s high elasticity is achieved through a high percentage of elastane or through a special knitting / weaving technology. The elasticity of the material increases comfort, performance and freedom of movement.

ECO FINISH:
VAUDE products with ECO FINISH are water-resistant and yet produced in an environmentally-friendly way without fluorocarbons (PFC). PFC is a group of chemicals used to make the outer fabric of a product waterproof.

ADVANCED CYCLING GREEN:
VAUDE’s most sustainable seat pad, made from 100% recycled fabric and 20% sustainable (bio-based and recycled) foam. Designed for ambitious recreational cyclists and medium intensity training.
Upper material: Recycled Fabric: 80% polyester (recycled), 20% polyamide (recycled)
Inner layer of padding: Ortholite hybrid high density insert: 80% polyurethane, 15% polyurethane (recycled), 5% elastodiene (recycled)
Foam: Comfort density foam: 80% polyurethane, 20% castor oil

PES RECYCLING:
VAUDE uses recycled polyester, among other materials, to manufacture this highly functional product. These are surplus materials from polyester production that – instead of being disposed of as waste (as is often the case) – are collected and returned to production. In this way, VAUDE conserves resources and offers you full functionality.

GREEN SHAPE:
VAUDE’s quality seal for products that are produced in a particularly environmentally-friendly way. As there is no worldwide standard for the assessment of organic products, VAUDE has developed their own rating system for environmentally friendly outdoor products with strictest criteria. GREEN SHAPE labelled products are made from sustainable materials and with resource saving production methods. The criteria are not only strict but also continuously reviewed and involve the entire product lifecycle, ranging from development through to product care and recycling after use. The aim of this rating system is to minimize the environmental impact.

GRÜNER KNOPF (“GREEN BUTTON”):
The German textile seal GRÜNER KNOPF (“Green Button”) identifies textiles that meet high social and environmental standards. 26 social and ecological criteria are considered for each product. The companies must prove their human rights, social and ecological responsibilities.

Note:
The reflective design elements attached to the clothing as decorative elements do not represent a personal protective equipment as mentioned in EU regulation 2016/425. Thus, they are also not covered by the provisions of the regulation.
