VAUDE WOMEN'S POSTA WARM TIGHTS II Softshell Trousers

The WOMEN'S POSTA WARM TIGHTS II women's cycling trousers by VAUDE offer you a high level of comfort paired with ideal weather protection – just right for training sessions in autumn and winter.

Reduce resistance – that's what these elasticated road bike trousers are designed to do thanks to the functional STRETCH material. The material not only provides a high degree of freedom of movement, but also has breathable properties when you’re giving it your all on your rides. The wind stays outside thanks to WINDPROOF PRO zones specially positioned in the front area.

Thanks to the anti-slip prints on the inside, the wide waistband of the winter trousers stays where it should be for added comfort and protection from cold draughts. That leaves hardly any excuse, so get on your bike!

Highlights & Technologies:

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 FINSIH are produced to be water-repellent, without the use of fluorocarbons (PFC). PFC is a group of chemicals used to make the outer fabric of a product waterproof. Regular re-treatment is necessary for permanent water and dirt repellence.

RECYCLED PET:
The polyester yarn in this product comes (in part) from PET bottles that have been collected, cleaned and processed into granulate. This saves energy, emissions and resources in the manufacturing process of the functional material.

R-PAD:
The "R" in the name stands for "Road" and thus directly describes its ideal purpose: This pad is made for long road tours in a sporty riding position. Whether you're training, racing or travelling by bike, the high-density construction of the seat pad absorbs pressure on sensitive areas and provides extra stability.
• High-density 3-layer construction
• approx. 12 mm thick
• Made from firm foam
With perforated surface

GREEN SHAPE:
Products with VAUDE's own label fulfil various manufacturer-specific requirements with regard to environmental and social factors, including, for example, material-efficient design, durability, recyclability and reparability. VAUDE checks the entire product life cycle when awarding this label. According to the manufacturer, all VAUDE articles with this label are PFC-free, are largely made from recycled or bio-based materials and also bear the GREEN BUTTON seal.
Note: GREEN SHAPE is the brand's own label and not an independent environmental certificate.

GRÜNER KNOPF (“GREEN BUTTON”):
The German textile seal GRÜNER KNOPF (“Green Button”) identifies textiles that meet high social and environmental standards. This seal also verifies corporate due diligence with regard to defined human rights and ecological criteria. The basis of the verification of theses standards is partly carried out via third-party, independent meta-labels. The publisher of the GREEN BUTTON seal is the Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ).

GRS – Global Recycled Standard:
The Textile Exchange organisation awards the GRS seal to products that meet certain criteria with regard to the proportion of recycled material, the monitoring chain, social and ecological practices and chemical regulations. For VAUDE articles with this seal, this means that the recycled content complies with this international, voluntary product standard.

Note:
The reflective design elements attached to the clothing as decoration 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.
