The North Face designed the Thresher Hydration Pack to stay out of your way during long trail runs. Adjust the shoulder, sternum, and waist straps for a smooth fit, and let the magnetic hydration bite valve stick neatly to the pack so it won’t flop around as you jog. Bring your keys and energy bars along, and if rain clouds are on the horizon, just cinch a jacket in the Thresher Pack’s outer bungee strap. A resilient and taste-free Nalgene Encapsul water reservoir resists bacterial growth, so if your drink looks greenish, it’s just because your roommate put an energy drink in there.
Bottom Line: Worry-free hydration.
Talk shop with all the gear freaks out there: ask 'em questions, upload/browse photos, and give your 2¢.
Cool bag, crap bladder.

In line with the other comment, the bladder is trash. It's supposedly a North Face branded Nalgene bladder, but Nalgene bladders don't leak like this. I've had two thresher bladders leak (one at pivot at bottom, one at screwtop) and my girlfriend's TNF Mako bag leaked too.
Ok, now that we're off that, the Thresher pack is a great extremely small and rather light pack. It's got pretty good and supportive straps and backpadding, but it holds about 1.5 liters of water, wallet, keys, a sandwich and a cliff bar. You can perhaps shove a thermal in the bungee pouch, but it is small. Great if you are going for a bike ride or jog, bad if you want this to be a minimalist summit push bag (my original intention).
Overall, it's surprisingly good and breathable for an on-the-back pack, and quite light and streamlined... but as has been said, the bladder it comes with is landfill food.
great pack, throw the bladder away

The pack is great, but the bladder leaked immediately. I threw it away and replaced it with a camelbak bladder that I already had.
Change me.
