A fairly standard build in black with an orange back panel, hopefully for some pack rafting and general use.
If possible please add a loop on the front as a handle to lift the pack from that side, wide enough to get a hand through so about 10cm apart where it is sown. I will email a photo of what I'm thinking for that.
I am away until 21st April but will be back in Te Anau after that to discuss anything. The only thing I wasn't sure about is how thick to make the side pockets, so maybe I can come in later next week to look at the fabric options for that.

Thanks,

Gerard"

(I say basically, because you might advise different fabrics - I intend to use it for tramping in NZ on track and off track, I like ultralight but understand that NZ has harsher conditions than most places)

I have chosen Brick Red colour as from the fabrics picture, it looks like what I would describe as burnt orange? Is this correct?
Side pockets colour in the video one I'm guessing is Black Knight?
Strap fabric in the video I’m guessing is Black Knight as well?
I put for two strap bottle pockets, but I’m actually wanting one bottle pocket and one mobile phone pocket please (like the video)
Waist Belt in the video I’m guessing is Black Knight again?

If you are able to deliver by 20th April for my tramp I’m planning, that would be amazing, but I understand if your lead times are longer."

It was great to meet when we visited your workshop in January, sorry it took me so long to put an order through.

For the 'small heavy duty alpine' side pockets: are these the type that the tip of a snowstake could tuck into, if it is held by the compression strap? If so, that's great. If not, are you able to send a picture of an example so I can see?

I'd really like to get the Ultra 400 TX fabric on the base, but also on the bottom few centimetres of the pack (like on this pack: https://www.instagram.com/p/CnP09OKSFxv/). Would that work here?

Also - perhaps most importantly! - can I get one of the side panels in tropic teal, and one in bright blue?

Thanks,
Thomas

I'm happy to take your advice on details. I'm 60 so it doesn't have to last forever, but light would be good and want to tramp, ski touring carry to hut pack and carry my wife's gear on some of the days ie the long top. Outer back pocket for wet gear and side for empty water bottle. my Aim is a large, waterproof Fiordland trips that i can still fit in small luxuries. Could you secure a pocket on the left shoulder strap below the sternum strap for a phone (80x160mm) so it doesn't bounce around maybe sew it on both sides with a waterproof zip and flap. Is the triangle on back pocket to protect ice axe point, they are good at tearing packs? I have a trip on the 19th April enough time?
Thanks again Tony "

Here is the specs for the pack.
Its primarily for ski-mountaineering where I use a pack raft for access, hence the volume.

It will also be used for an upcoming ski mountaineering trip to India where I will be hauling gear up a few different valleys.

With the Lycra pocket and stretch cord, can that be grey??

Can I also add a phone pouch??

Many thanks,

Chris"

I understand you gave him a prototype or updated bag after he sent his old one in for repair. I thought the bag went fantastic. 

I only have a few modifications from that experience. 

Could the external access pocket please be sewn into the side around its perimeter such that it isnt a loose flap inside the bag. could it be slightly larger than normal or sized to fit a small first aid + headtorch and battery bag. I found that this got in the way of the packraft or or pulling out things buried deep in the bag when really full. Might not solve the issue so if you have any experience doing this id be keen to hear. 

I also thought the side pockets could be 25mm deeper. Not sure if things have changed since then but if thats possible to make them slightly deeper than his were, and shift the first side compression strap up to match that would be great. 

Also keen for a teal bum bag.
