Have you heard of VAUDE ? No? Unless you're an extreme conditions athlete or a triathlon champion, that's totally excusable. And that is why this fabulous German family business has entrusted Look Further with the development of its visibility and its good influence in France with a wider public, beyond sportsmen and women.

This year, we're going to make you want to get off your cozy couch and go for a walk, a trek or a bike ride to work, come rain or shine. And this, while being (finally) respectful of your health and our environment.
Born in 1974 at the foot of the Alps, the German company VAUDE designs and manufactures ultra-technical equipment for cycling, in the heart of nature or urban areas, and for hiking.

B-Corp and a company with a mission ahead of its time, VAUDE has always placed the respect of Mankind and the planet at the heart of its actions.

Its President Antje von Dewitz, regularly recognized by international awards, the latest being the Vanity Fair Changing Your Mind 2020 Travel Awards has been running this Mittelstand business for 10 years in a visionary and pragmatic way. Hence VAUDE's advance in a sector that has long struggled to reconcile technicality (permeability, resistance, etc.) and responsibility. B-Corp and a company with a mission ahead of its time, VAUDE has always placed the respect of Mankind and the planet at the heart of its actions.

The general public is often unaware of this, but the outdoor sector is regularly singled out on 2 issues :

  • the use of chemical substances that make products waterproof, water-repellent, robust, elastic, etc., but which are proven to be harmful to health and the environment,
  • the social and environmental conditions of manufacturing, just like the entire textile industry.

Faced with these challenges, VAUDE has developed :

  • its own label, Green Shape, recognized by the profession and the German government as the most demanding on the market. 97% of the new Spring/Summer 2020 textile collection meets the requirements of this label.
  • a design and manufacturing approach unique in its sector, accredited by the Fair Wear Foundation, of which it is one of the historical leader members.
