Where it all started
From an idea to a project. From a project to a prototype. From a prototype to a product. From our first product to our sixth. From our first order to our first event. From our first customer.. It’s been a journey. And, we have a feeling it’s only the beginning.
From Amphipak to SKö
Since 2020, SKö has been focused on developing the best products for outdoor water adventures. Our bags have received local and international attention around the world.
When we named the company, Amphipak was a suggestion that fit the first product and was memorable. But over the years the name began to limit us. So we decided to make a change. We're still Amphipak — the same team, the same bags — but to help take this Utah local brand (that you helped create) to the next level, we needed to evolve. We’re grateful to have you with us for the next chapter.
About the Company

SKö designs and markets backpacks, materials, applications, and accessories for outdoor enthusiasts who love outdoor lifestyles and travel. SKö is independently owned and operated from its headquarters located in Mapleton, Utah where Larry and his family reside.
