Here's what other sites are saying:
From Campmor:
"The North Face Superlight is a zero degree bag for all-season mountaineering. 600+ Eastern European goose fill down is lightweight, compressible and warm. Trapezoidal baffle construction holds the down in place and prevents cold spots. Climashield Prism anti-compression pads create an insulating buffer between you and the ground and are far more resistant to compression than down. Shadowlite SL nylon ripstop top shell. Silky nylon taffeta lining. Seven-chamber sculpted hood with single-point hidden cordlock adjustment. Down-filled draft tube and face comfort tube with enhanced internal heat trap. Vaulted ergonomic footbox. Ground-level side seams. Glow-in-the-dark zipper pull with bonded zipper garage. No-Snag bonded stiffener in zipper column. Bonded watch pocket with bonded water resistant zipper. Sleeping pad retention loops. Nylon storage sack and siliconized stuffsack included. Choose right or left side zipper."
From Backcountry.com:
"As its name suggests, The North Face Superlight 0F 600-fill Down Sleeping Bag weighs very little, about 3 lbs (1660g). With an excellent warmth-to-weight ration, 600-fill down insulation keeps you warm in cold, wintry realms. The Superlight's silken lining feels soft on your skin and breathes for good ventilation. Its construction evenly distributes the down to prevent the insulation from shifting and causing cold spots. The usual North Face sleeping bag features apply, including an external pocket you stuff your down jacket in to make a pillow, a head-level watch pocket (great for hearing your alarm), and single-point cordlock for adjusting the seven chamber hood. Draft tubes throughout the sleeping bag seal in warmth. Store your Superlight in its nylon/mesh storage bag so the down doesn't lose its loft; pack it in its stuffsack when you're on the go in the backcountry."

What I really want to know is if the bag will zip into a male model? Anybody know?"

Two years ago the baffles started to tear and the down migrated to various parts of the bag."

I realize that the Superlight of 1971, which had a temp rating of 30 degrees, in no way compares to the Superlight of today, as today's model is rated as a 0 degree bag."

This bag has held up well to more than 50 nights of use.
It was comfortable at 26 degrees during a week trek in July through California's Desolation Wilderness.
It was warm at 2 degrees during a two night stay at 10,400 on Mt. Shasta in November."
