Backpack VAUDE Wo Astrum 55+10 - 55 L (expandable to 65 L), frameless, front loading, women's, Cherry (fruit)

VAUDE Wo Astrum 55+10 is a women's trekking backpack with a frameless design and a front-loading main compartment that provides organized access to gear. Offering 55 liters of standard capacity and expandable up to 65 liters via an adjustable lid, this pack weighs approximately 1.76 kg and is developed for multi-day trekking, long-distance hiking and travel. The pack is made primarily from recycled polyester and finished with an eco-friendly water-repellent treatment that avoids fluorocarbons.

Advantages

The Tergolight Comfort Space suspension distributes weight evenly and includes a back padding recess to relieve pressure on the lower back. A fully adjustable back length and individually adjustable load-positioning straps allow a tailored fit for different torso sizes. Ergoshape shoulder straps and a padded hip belt are shaped for the female anatomy and a slightly shorter back length, providing comfortable support without restricting arm movement. Front access, side stretch pockets and multiple attachment points make gear organization and quick access straightforward.

Suitable for

• Multi-day trekking and backpacking where large, organized capacity is required
• Long-distance hiking requiring adjustable, back-friendly suspension
• Travel and expedition use with varied packing needs and external attachments

How to use

Adjust the back length to match your torso before loading the pack to ensure the Tergolight Comfort Space sits correctly and relieves pressure on the sacroiliac area. Load heavier items centrally and close to the back, distribute medium-weight items around the main compartment and place frequently used items in the front pocket or side stretch pockets for quick access. Use the removable lid to increase capacity or detach it for separate use. Secure external gear with attachment loops and compression straps and route the hydration tube through the opening provided if using a hydration bladder.

Usage recommendations

Regularly care for the Eco Finish by cleaning and reapplying appropriate PFC-free impregnation to maintain water and dirt repellency. Inspect straps and buckles before extended trips, and adjust load-positioning straps and hip belt to shift weight to the hips for improved comfort on longer hikes.
