Men's Slipstream
Reviewed by M Kretzler, Dec 01, 2007
"I've used a Slipstream from North Face for several years. I've had it for long enough that it doesn't have a "carbon x" frame, but a simple aluminum stay with stiff foam for a frame that does very well. It's the most comfortable pack I've ever had. I've used it for several week long backpacks, carrying up to 40 pounds as comfortably as is possible."

"Despite having a sorty ugly '80s color scheme, this is my favorite pack. I use it for backpacking, ice climbing, and cragging. It is very light (3. 5 lbs) and carries up to about 35 lbs comfortably. The carbon fiber x frame does a nice job of transferring the load to the hips."

"I bought the Slipstream mostly for overnights and climbing trips and found it in Campmor for an incredible price. I used this past weekend on a trip in the Daks and it was great, although I do not believe it was designed to carry and function as an overnight backpack."

Slipstream
Reviewed by an anonymous hiker, Feb 02, 1997
"This is a great pack for climbing daytrips, as it is just the right size for a rope, rack, extra clothes, and a few other things. It works best with loads up to 30-35 pounds, but any more and the fairly small suspension begins to cut off circulation. This pack is a great all-around bag for climbing, skiing, or just about any other daytrip/weekend activity."

Reviewed by cheming@..., Jul 03, 1996
"The Slipstream is a good pack for overnighters or a light three day trip. It's also a good pack for long dayhikes or summit attemps. It's a pretty comfortable with a heavier load (30 lbs) and real comfortable with a lighter load. The 2 ice axe tubes are nice for the larger ice axes as well as the waterfall ice axes."
