The Atom+ hits that sweet spot between a frameless and a fully featured pack.
The lightweight carbon frame and removable hip belt offer just enough support to help you when things get heavy, but are still flexible and light enough for true ultralight adventures.
Feel like you don’t need it? Take the frame out and leave it at home. Want to try hiking hipbelt-less? Take the hipbelt off and see how it feels.
Weight from 650g / 22.92 oz (40L, size M)
Load Capacity 13.5kg / 30lbs
Main Pack body
The main body of the pack is completely open, yours to fill as you wish. It is secured with a roll top closure that clsoes dry bag style.
Large front pocket
The front pocket can be sewn in either Dyneema Stretch material or Bullet Net, both offer capacious storage. The Dyneema Stretch is better for a cleaner aesthetic and off trail bushwacks (doesn't snag easily) and the Bullet net is better for packing wet gear and improved visibility of items but can snag when bushwacking. The bullet net option will increase the measurable volume of your bag by 5L.
Side pockets
Each side pocket can hold 2.5L and is perfectly shaped to carry 2 x 1L smart water style bottles with ease. You can use the elastic drawcord to secure these items whilst walking and, should the elastic ever break or wear out, we have designed it to be easily replaceable.
S-shaped shoulder straps
Sewn using 10mm foam, durable 210d Robic Extreema face fabric and breathable, soft 3mm spacer mesh.
Carbon fibre hoop frame
Carbon fibre frame that can be removed for 55g weight reduction.
Removable Hipbelt
The hipbelt measures 3 inches wide. It is made with 10mm laminated foam and includes 20mm webbing and hardware. It can be adjusted by pulling in towards the middle and it is secured in the centre of the belt by 50mm hook and loop tape. The belt can be removed for a 90g weight reduction.
Padded back panel
Uses shaped 8mm closed cell foam. Can be removed when pack is empty for a 15g weight reduction.
Sternum strap
Elasticated and height adjustable.
Ice Axe loop
Sewn-in loop to easily connect an ice axe or walking poles.
Shoulder pockets:
Super stretchy and big enough to hold even the biggest smartphones, a day’s worth of snacks or a 700ml water bottle.
We offer these in sewn in or removable options. Our preferred choice is for sewn in as standard.
Front zig-zag elastic
Removable and designed to be able to store a folded Z-rest or assist with air drying your clothes.
Side Compression options
Elastic: These are there to secure a trekking pole or tent poles when stored in the side pocket, also a handy place to dry socks
Webbing: If you are carrying anything heavy in the side pocket, these are a slightly stronger option than elastic and have much greater compression strength

Durable and lightweight, EPX200 is a recycled 200 denier face fabric with eco DWR finish, blue 45 degree cross ply and white recycled 70 denier backing fabric.
The EPX200 is our choice for The Atom+ due to its eco credentials, waterproof qualities, light weight and added durability.
Not too shabby on the eye either.
