About

MEET THE FOUNDER

Hello! My name is Santo Manone, and I’m the founder and maker behind Gneisspacks. I design and build handmade outdoor gear meant to move across environments — from rivers to bikes to everyday adventures. From custom bags tailored to individual needs to durable, adventure-ready packs, every piece is made by hand with real use in mind.

I started making backpacks because I couldn’t find one that truly worked for me. Everything on the market felt divided between hiking backpacks and school backpacks, and neither fit how I actually used my gear. Gneisspacks grew out of that gap — creating packs that are functional, versatile, and built for people who move between the outdoors and daily life.

I specialize in making backpacks that are ultra-durable while still being cool, colorful, and expressive. My goal is to create gear that lasts a long time, works hard, and makes you excited to take it along on whatever adventure comes next.
