Gear Review
If there's a catch, I haven't found it

December 20, 2005
I work for the Outdoor Rec Center at the University of Georgia, and it's my responsibility to improve the quality of our gear (at a very specific budget). While looking for warm bags, the Wasatch had the best specs at the best price hands down. But there has to be a catch, right? It's The North Face. Why's it so inexpensive? I had to find out, so I ordered two to test them out and I still haven't found the catch. It's inexpensive, lightweight and compact. The stitching looks good and the material is strong.
