I do bikepacking bags out of essentially the same materials. One person shop. It's cool to see another maker work and how those guys do things. Will definitely look into their packs though as my wife and I do quite a bit of hiking/trekking as well.
You know you're a gearhead when you watch this video and it gives you a load of dopamine and throws you into a state of euphoria! I want one... that's a sexy pack!
Ahh cool! I was very lucky indeed to get this made as we were collaborating on a film and in return Tom and Jen made me a pack. Usually there’s a 9 week lead time on orders. What colours are you going to go for on yours?
Hello from Canada :D Congrats on your new pack it looks really cool! It was nice of Tom to let you film the making of your pack, it's a great video. See you on the PCT next year!
This makes me want one. Currently using my Osprey Eja and will be this season but seriously thinking about this for next year. The fact it isnt just mass produced.
😁👍 Loved this video and insight into Atompacks and how there made as I've been toying with the idea of a custom pack for a while. Simple non fussy but a quality item that will last. I feel a road trip to the Lakes happening.. 😁
How great!!! Thanks for posting this bad boy. Great stuff. Bet there won't be too many ATOM packs on the PCT next year but certainly appears to bea hell of a great piece of work. You said, "Looking Sweet." EXACTLY.
Very handsome pack. I recently received my custom LiteAF Curve 35. It really is exciting getting a pack you've designed. Appalachian Trail for me in 2020.
Way cool video and process on how a pack is made. Bonus, you added to my streaming music playlists with Mogashi and Fable and the World! As an owner of an HMG SW 4400 and Daybreak, I think an Atom 35 would be a great addition. Not sure of fabrics thought. Cheers. Oh yeah.. I had to send a link of your video to wife’s phone, and Shazam it from mine.
Could you make a video regarding comparison Atom and your previous backpack Hyperlite? That could be very useful because I also considering the buy of a new backpack. Maybe some special discount for your fans ;P
Yes of course, it’s definitely in my list of videos to make. But I want to get some miles on my new Atom+ before making a fair comparison. 👍 stay tuned
Brilliant. A week ago i orderd an Atom plus pack with the y strap, pole attachment design and single inward pulling hip belt strap. Watching your interview filming and now this has really added to the buying experience. Thanks Russell. How much did it weigh?
So cool that you got Tom for your first collaboration. He's just an awesome dude, and super helpful with the building of my pack! P.s. mine is named aMOna (cause it's a Mo... Get it? ... I'm already sorry :D
Haha brilliant. Such a good name. I just call everything Gary. It’s a long story. Yeah it’s been so much fun and I’m grateful for his time and efforts. Definitely more videos about Atom Packs to come. Thanks for watching. 👍
I asked my art teacher if i could use orange on my project and she asked what type and i said 'wtf orange' and she gave me bright orange and a detention
I'm curious of how long Tom has been sewing stuff for. To when he could create a full atom . I'm not too sure if that was mentioned in the interview video with him.
Sure! Good question. He started sewing after his TA trek in New Zealand which I believe was in 2013 and set up the company last year which is when I guess he made commercially viable and tested products.
Great behind the scenes but usually Tom is further away and harder to hear. I really wish you had used a better mic setup like an on body mic than a shotgun mic.
Fascinating. Particularly the measuring. Thanks for sometimes repeating what Tom says. His voice is SO deep I have difficulty hearing/understanding him.
Really well. It’s good to be able to cinch the hem of the pockets in to hold things down. I really like the z side shock cord for securing bottles. My HMG and ULA always have me dropping bottles. Thanks for watching
Ok hear me out. Someone needs to design a backpack that turns into a shelter. You have all this excess fabric that lives in your pack most of the time, taking up space and adding weight, and generally only comes out when you are camping for the night. I’d love to see an innovative way to wrap your gear up into your shelter, roll it up, and strap it to your back in a way that’s comfortable and supports your gear weight.
Great and informative video, good to see a home grown artisan product doing well. Subscribed! - it the C7 vertebrae btw, not T7 when measuring, 7th thoracic vertebrae is way lower.
If memory serves correctly, the atom packs specs say that its an Oxford weave Cordura 500 weight. A look at my Atom+50 suggests that to be the case. Great pack: everything on it works as intended and the quality of the construction is faultless, hard to think of any way it could be improved. The 50litre size allows good space for a multi-day winter load out without brutally compressing your down insulation, plus extra fuel and all that calorie dense stuff we need when the mercury is trying to find a way out the bottom of the thermometer. Well done and thankyou Atom Packs.
Yeah, Dyneema Industries has a lockdown on their products. All to keep it expensive and exclusive. You must order 1500meters on your first order if you don't go through their 'partners'.
The Trail Hunter love it. I’ve been rolling in a Granite Gear Leopard for the last few years and have been looking for a small light weight pack. I had my eye on the Waymark Thru but now all I can think about are Atom Packs. They’re exactly what I’m looking for and look amazing! Just trying to decide what model is right for me.
The Trail Hunter This was a promotional video. Short clip of marking up fabric. Short shot of sewing. I expected from the title you would show them sewing up parts of the bag. Then something like “Here they pay special attention to stitching for extra strength, etc” . Not giving away or showing everything but some process like attaching the straps. This was you going and getting a bag made from the 50,000 foot view. Maybe explain fabric options and reasons.
Tech guy. I make these videos for free for you to watch, with absolutely no ads and without any paid promotions. I’m sure there are other videos out there offering exactly what you’re looking for, but I think it’ll be hard to find a company looking to give away their intellectual property so you can go and copy one of their products.
I’ve got my needle and thread ready so I can follow along 😜 looks interesting though I like the look of that pack too.
Thanks Martin. Haha. I definitely learned a lot from Tom and Jen that day. Amazing experience. See you there in 7 👍
can i get a blueprint of measurements ? i want to make one

Haha ahh amazing. Nice one Jon! Let me know which model you go for. They’re very nice indeed.
I was in London recently and wanted to pop over to their shop and get a pack made. Didn’t work out, so it’s fun to see this video! Living vicariously!

Looking forward to this. What a great idea to show.
This is such a good video! Good job man
Thanks Ben! Glad you enjoyed it. 👍 more to come as always.
Great video mate. Such good insight. And its so good how personal the experience was! Make sure you look after it!!
It's like having a build'a'bear! 😄
That was great! I’ve followed Atom packs for a while. Awesome packs. Love seeing behind the scenes on how they do things.
Thanks very much! Glad you enjoyed it. It was awesome to see it being made. I just made the tea all day and fed them biscuits. Hahah!
Great insight ... and thrown an absolute spanner in a pending pack upgrade decision choice.
Thanks Jason. Glad you enjoyed it. Ahh really? What’s changing? 👍
Damn that’s such a beautiful pack Russ. Putting my order in this Friday 😬
Mate, definitely looking forward to seeing what yours looks like.
Oh wow naughty so jelly mate what a treat!!! Beautiful pack and design really like the extras Tom is a genius 👍
Ahh thanks so much mate, it’s a really amazing pack and definitely the one I’ll be using for the PCT. 👍👍👍
Hope Atompack is going to ship to Germany . I’m looking at my next favourite backpack 🥰

Awesome, see you on the trail! Represent UK!
Absolutely fantastic video in every way. Superb work, all of ya :)

Cool! Wonder how they have expanded today
This blew me away. The storytelling, shots, editing and music choices were all incredible.
Super glad to have found your channel.
Love the pack!

The funny thing with these packs is that they are essentially simple school bags made with fancy materials. May as well by yourself a large school bag
Which school bag would you get?

What are the models of sewing machines they used?

hey mate weird question but can you tell me what the distance is between the shoulder straps, where they attach to the top of the pack?
I’d have to get me tape measure out mate. I’ll get back to you. Pester me if I don’t. 🤙
dopeeeeee. How long did that take them start to finish?
About an hour and a half. 👍
The Trail Hunter what?! Damn that is amazing
Fascinating. Particularly the measuring. Thanks for sometimes repeating what Tom says. His voice is SO deep I have difficulty hearing/understanding him.

Do they do backpacks for women (i.e. with more of the weight on hips vs shoulders)?
What’s the differences between the different models?
👍 size, hip belt design, frame construction pocket design and cords.
I see...why’d you go with the atom+
Because it’s larger than the normal Atom and comes with a removable hip belt and hip belt pockets as standard. 👍

Whatever happened to this guy? Made some great content and just disappeared.
How about stop showing you and show what he is doing!
A lot of time showing your face when you can show more or the backpack and her creator...
You showed practically nothing of the sewing of the pack.
