Atom Packs

Very nice packs. The Prospector looks interesting, framed VX21 at less than 700 grams.

Looks nice, pallante bottom pocket and interesting to see the top strap buckle moved to top of back panel rather than above the front mesh pocket. The x PAC looks cool in black.

As long as the buckle stays of your back I guess it’s a good idea.

Kind of want the Atom, not as practical as the Prospector but so cute. Can someone give me a load of money so I can go on a spending spree please? :D :bear:

Perhaps because there are no hip belt pockets? I find a palante pocket useful on my beltless packs.

I'm curious: what exactly do you put there that is compatible with putting the pack down on wet, muddy ground or dry rocky ground?

Honest question, no trolling here. ;)

I think the idea is that you don't put it down, at least during the day, because you hike 24/7. Not that applicable to the UK necessarily...

I asked the very same question about the Palante packs ………. :rolleyes:

I can see that with the Palante Simple, less so with the Atom Prospector.
