Yamatomichi MINI Backpack - Black
Perhaps the marquee product in an already extremely impressive range, Yamatomichi's MINI Backpack is one of the most thoughtful and technically accomplished packs we here at Outsiders have ever had the pleasure of coming across. Inspired by Ray Jardine - considered by many to be the forefather of the ultralight hiking movement - and his Ray-Way backpack, the style is astoundingly streamlined, with not so much as a thread present that isn't in service of functionality.
Capable of shuttling 8KG when packed correctly, the Mini's body is constructed from 30-denier Pertex®?07RS-PC ripstop - specifically developed for backpacks, a Pertex first - which is as durable as it is light of weight. However, this isn't the only fabric present. The external zipped pocket is made from weather-resistant X-Pac, the back panel breathable Pertex®?21RS-PC 3D Mesh, and the bottom panel extremely hardy ECOPAK EPX200. The brand's shrewd use of different materials perfectly illustrates their stringent and meticulous approach to product design.
Finally, details, the most noteworthy of which is the removable Minimalist Pad. Either slotted into the sleeve inside the main compartment to give the pack a spine or rolled in the middle of the bag to allow for smart packing, the complimentary pad is ideal for bolstering the warmth of your sleeping setup, thanks to the insulating XLPE embossed foam. Alongside that, there's two water bottle pockets made from Ultra Stretch Mesh, rigorously-tested shoulder pads complete with a stabilising sternum strap and two sets of drawcord storage straps to lash extra gear to the bag's exterior.
We're aware that's a lot of information, but when the product is this ingenious, it certainly warrants a War and Peace-length product description.
