Readers' Choice Award Given to the Vaude Cheyenne 500

Backpacker Magazine honored the Vaude Cheyenne 500 sleeping bag with a Readers' Choice Award in its January 2014 issue.


"I sleep cold, but this bag kept me toasty."


The Vaude Cheyenne sleeping bag is a luxury down filled bag for camping or trekking tours in the spring and fall. The Cheyenne supplies feather-light warmth with an 80/20 quality down fill. A good nights sleep is easily had with its comfortably soft and skin friendly construction. Available in fill weights of 700, 500, 350, and 200 grams, the Cheyenne features a body-contoured mummy cut, along with a contoured hood for optimal heat management. A zippered inner pocket allows for keeping the essentials close at hand. For being a luxury sleeping bag, the Cheyenne packs down nicely to limit the bulk.

This bag is one of Vaude’s Green Shape products, made with Bluesign® approved fabric. Green Shape is Vaude’s guarantee for environmentally friendly products that are made from sustainable materials and resource-friendly production. Vaude is currently making changes to reach their goal for 2015 to have 80% of Vaude products be Green Shape approved.
