Material

The MINI Custom Edition features unique fabrics developed by Yamatomichi, including 200D HT PC coated ripstop nylon and 70D HT PC coated ripstop nylon, with options for lightweight and highly durable TechnoForce® Steel, and waterproof X-Pac (for pockets and bottom), allowing for customizable material and color selections based on the application.

200D HT PC Coated Ripstop Nylon

AVAILABLE FOR: FRONT POCKET

This 200 denier high-tenacity (HT) nylon, interwoven with ripstop threads, boasts excellent tear resistance for its weight. The fabric has a water-repellent coating on the surface and a polycarbonate (PC) coating on the back which is significantly resistant to hydrolysis, ensuring minimal degradation even after 10 years in “jungle tests.”

Technoforce® Steel

AVAILABLE FOR: FRONT POCKET, BOTTOM

The fabric made from 100% ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHPE) is exceptionally lightweight yet strong; light enough to float on water yet theoretically capable of supporting around 20 tons with just a 10 mm diameter. This high-density woven fabric offers world-class tear resistance, tensile strength, and abrasion resistance. Its hydrolysis-resistant PC coating on the back further enhances long-term durability, with “jungle tests” showing no significant changes after 10 years. UHPE does not retain water, preventing the fabric from becoming heavier when wet.

70D HT PC Coated Ripstop Nylon

AVAILABLE FOR: BODY/ROLL TOP, FRONT POCKET

This 70 denier HT (high-tenacity) ripstop nylon fabric is our proprietary material with enhanced strength and durability compared with conventional nylon. The surface is DWR (durable water repellent) finished, and the backside is polycarbonate coated, achieving a much better anti-hydrolyzation performance than regular polyurethane-based fabrics. The results of the Tropical Test, aka Jungle Test, in which the fabrics are left in a machine with 95% humidity, temperatures at 70°C for ten weeks, showed that the new material ​will not significantly deteriorate for 10 years.

Material: 70 Denier High-tenacity Nylon, Polycarbonate Coating
Coating: C6DWR (Durable Water Repellent)
Weight: 106g/㎡

In-house test results*:

  • Tensile strength (JIS L1096A): 97kg (Vertical), 64kg (Horizontal)
  • Tear strength (JIS L1096A): 7kg (Vertical), 4kg (Horizontal)
  • Water pressure resistance (JIS L1092B): 4079mm

*Variations may occur according to the actual production lot.

X-Pac VX07

AVAILABLE FOR: FRONT POCKET

X-Pac VX07 is a multi-layer fabric comprised of 70 denier nylon on the surface, a water-resistant polyester film in the middle, and a 50 denier polyester taffeta and diamond-patterned black polyester X-Ply material at the back. It is highly durable and water-resistant with hydrostatic water-resistant structural technology.

Material: 70 Denier Ripstop Nylon, Black polyester X-ply, 0.25 polyester film, 50 Denier polyester (Durable water repellent)
Weight: 162.7g/㎡

In-house test results*:

  • Tensile strength (JIS L1096A): 111kg (Vertical), 92kg (Horizontal)
  • Tear strength (JIS L1096A): 11kg (Vertical), 8kg (Horizontal)
  • Water pressure resistance (JIS L1092B): 40991mm

*Variations may occur according to the actual production lot.

X-Pac VX21 Soft

AVAILABLE FOR: FRONT POCKET

This 210 denier HT (high-tenacity) ripstop nylon fabric is our proprietary material with DWR (durable water repellent) finished on the surface, while the backside is polycarbonate coated, achieving a much better anti-hydrolyzation performance than regular polyurethane-based fabrics.

Material: 210 denier nylon, Black polyester X-Ply, Polyester resin, 50 denier polyester
Coating: DWR (Durable Water Repellent)
Weight: 188g/㎡

In-house test results*:

  • Tensile strength (JIS L1096A): 119kg (Vertical), 96kg (Horizontal)
  • Tear strength (JIS L1096A): 14kg (Vertical), 14kg (Horizontal)
  • Water pressure resistance (JIS L1092B): 6526mm

*Variations may occur according to the actual production lot.

X-Pac VX21

AVAILABLE FOR: BOTTOM

X-Pac VX21 is adopted for the bottom material of our standard backpacks. It is a multi-layer fabric composed of 210 denier nylon on the surface, a water-resistant polyester film in the middle, and a 50 denier polyester taffeta and diamond-patterned black polyester X-Ply material at the back. It is highly durable and water-resistant with hydrostatic water-resistant structural technology.

Material: 210 denier nylon, Black polyester X-Ply, Polyester film, 50 denier polyester
Coating: DWR (Durable Water Repellent)
Weight: 203g/㎡

In-house test results*:

  • Tensile strength (JIS L1096A): 123kg (Vertical), 119kg (Horizontal)
  • Tear strength (JIS L1096A): 13kg (Vertical), 10kg (Horizontal)
  • Water pressure resistance (JIS L1092B): 50985mm

*Variations may occur according to the actual production lot.

Comparison of Weight and Tear Strength

In the diagram below, the higher the blue value, the heavier the fabric, while higher black values indicate greater strength.

Tear strength (the force required to tear the fabric) is represented by average values. The figures for Ultra 200, X-Pac VX07, and X-Pac VX21 are based on manufacturer’s data (ASTM D2261), while others are from in-house testing (JIS L1096A).

5. Select Back Pad

Please select from two types of back pads below. Both are removable, but function differently.

Minimalist Pad (43g) 

It is installed as a standard back pad for our regular MINI. It can be used as a sleeping pad or an emergency pad to keep you warm. It is slightly smallerin width (H45cm x W90cm) than the commercial version Minimalist Pad.

Breathable Pad for MINI (130g)

Made from a material called C-CORE; a three-dimensional network structure in which polyethylene fibers are intricately entwined. C-CORE is also used as a material for high-quality mattresses. While it is 87g heavier than the default Minimalist Pad with only 43g, it is far more breathable and well-cushioned, keeping your back cooler.

As a rough guide, we recommend the L size for people over 175cm, but there are people 170cm tall and the L is perfect for them. We recommend trying before buying.

  • The length of the shoulder strap is the straight line from the base of the strap to the end of the core material.
  • Please refer to the ONE product page for more information on how we measure the length of the back of our backpacks.
