I’ve owned my Nanu for about 6 months. I use it as a work bag, on short work trips and shopping and out walking. It’s great at all of these things. It’s super light, comfortable, capacious and well made. One big surprise is how great is it is for one bag travel on planes. The stuffable external pockets are great to quickly throw belts etc in when going through security and it sits nicely under the seat in front. Minor gripes: the sternum strap buckle is fiddly and a little more stiffness where the closing strap connects near the top pocket might make using the top pocket a little easier at times. I love the bag and would highly recommend it.

I bought the Nanu with the idea of maybe using it here and there when I used public transport or my bike to head into work however this didn't exactly go to plan, my better half (Mona) and I are in training for the T.M.B in June and have been hiking 25-30k at the weekends in preparation I have been using my Talon 33 loaded with around 7-9kg, after receiving the Nanu and wearing it I thought hmmm maybe I can use this in place of the Talon so the following weekend I loaded up my Nanu with around 7kg and off we went....all I can say is wow! It's so comfortable I'm impressed so much with this pack I use it every day for something now wether it's walking the dogs, going to the gym, nipping down to the shop for a few groceries it literally goes everywhere with me and I don't even notice it's there, even when I loaded up with 9.7kg one weekend it was still really comfortable over 22k over rough terrain.
This is a fantastic little pack and I'm over the moon with my purchase. Thanks Tom and team keep up the great work👍🏻

I'll be taking this pack on a two-week trip to England (Midlands and South East) in the summer. It's just barely holds everything I need without stuffing. Have taken it on one winter weekend trip and was great for that as well. Small and light enough that I can empty it out and use it as a day bag when I get where I'm going.

Love the bag. If you are reading this, you should buy it!

Great materials and very well made. I've had a few gear-head friends stop me to have a look and all have been impressed with the bag and the features. Me too. But I do think there are some improvements that could be made in version 2.0.

For reference, this is the 3rd Atom Pack I own + a Roo thing my wife uses daily as a cross-body bag. We love Atom Packs and are 99% thrilled with everything we own.

So the Nanu: First thing - I think the laptop sleeve needs to be deeper in the bag. I understand the thinking of making it ride high in the bag, preventing the laptop from hitting the floor setting the bag down, but it's too high in my opinion and makes the bag impossible to sit upright anywhere without toppling over or sliding down to the floor. It's very top heavy with a laptop (16" Macbook Pro M4) inside. The sleeve itself is well designed but the foam is thinner than other in-bag laptop sleeves I have access too. Wonder if a slightly denser foam, lower in the bag would be an improvement.

Second thing: I also wish the bag were like 15% bigger in the main compartment. It errs on the side of narrow in the width. I use the bag for a laptop, notebook, over-ear headphones and occasionally a 35mm camera in the bottom of the bag with a make-shift form insert. This all but fills the main compartment. It it were slightly bigger, I think I could also use it for multi-day travel as a carryon bag.

I can see the Nanu as a system more than a single bag offering. Maybe a larger central compartment with no inside features but the optional add-on of a snap-in laptop sleeve or padded pod-like compartment for things like cameras or headphones. Lower the base time / price to manufacture the Nanu (I imagine that laptop sleeve is a huge time-suck to make) and then offer it as a premium add-on with a few other optional accessories. Pump them out slightly faster and meet the demand which appears sky high. It's odd, but the Nanu may get more use from your customers than anything else. I use it daily. It gets tossed around in much harder environments than the woods. My Moo has seen 350 trail miles. But I imagine I'll clock a lot more town miles on the Nanu. So I hope you guys are thinking about it as a core offering and potentially an expanded system in the future.

Other than those personal observations, It is a top tier bag. Today in Kentucky it is pouring rain and I had all the confidence in the world this bag would protect my gear.

One other thing for the future user ... don't roll first and then top buckle second like you might a larger backpacking pack. I get great results buckling it first and then rolling it down second and hooking the latch to close the bag. It may have even been designed to function that way.

I was online by 9am the day the pack went on sale, as I knew they would sell out quickly, got mine in Olive and delivery was quick.
My pack is for my Lake District fell walks mainly and general rambling around.
Capacity seems bigger than 25L coupled with the plentiful outer stretch pockets make it very versatile, love the harness pocket for a half litre water
Bottle, two stretch side pockets and an outer stretch pocket for waterproofs etc.
The zipped pocket is great for quick access to snacks with plenty of room for keys, wallet and other things, also the almost hidden stash pocket on the pack underside, I keep a bin bag in there to pick up the sometimes inevitable litter some people seem to leave in beautiful places !

I recommend this versatile and very comfortable pack.
