The North Face Backpacks North Face Hiking Backpacks

History of the North Face Torrent Backpack

The North Face Torrent backpack is the ultimate backpack for every possible need. It has 1850 cubic inches of space and is well able to handle anything you want to put in it from wet scuba diving gear to a bicycle helmet. It is very versatile because it is designed for the outdoors person. It contains a separate section where you can place your sweaty gym clothes and joggers so that they are not in the same compartment as your clean clothes. The back panel and the shoulder straps are dual density making it much more comfortable for you to carry. The North Face also has more suspension built right into the frame of the backpack.


North Face Gear

The original North Face backpacks were designed in 1966 by two hiking enthusiasts who were looking for a backpack that was easy to carry, could carry more gear and that separated wet and dirty clothes from the dry and clean clothes. The name North Face was chosen because the north face of a mountain is the most difficult to climb. Since the launch of the first North Face backpack, the company has developed many more styles of backpacks, such as:


  • Sliquid – designed to hold 100 ounces of liquids
  • Slim – a smaller backpack for short excursions
  • Terra 40 – a large capacity outdoor bag
  • Flash flood – a waterproof back pack for canoeing or kayaking trips
  • MG 35 – skiing packs for day use
