North Face Catalyst 60 Backpack: moves when you move

The North Face exceeded the expectations of the outdoor enthusiast with the Catalyst 60 backpack.

The Catalyst 60 is the first backpack to communicate the relationship between the backpack and its user with the pivotal suspension system. The best part of the Catalyst 60 pack is the Load Equalizer, which allows the load to move with the user.  So you can leap over rivers, climb up boulders, and trapeze a log without the backpack throwing you off balance.

In 1966 North Face was started by a couple of hikers who created a small
mountaineering store in San Francisco.   The company soon became recognized as a retailer of high-performance backpacking and climbing equipment.  In 1996 North Face introduced outdoor apparel integrating the rock climbing market. Entering into the millennium, North Face became the only company in the United States to offer high performance, technologically advanced skiwear, outerwear, sleeping bags, tents and backpacks.  North face identifies their market as the most accomplished, mountaineers, climbers, extreme skiers and explorers.  As their website states “North face is committed to pushing the limits of design so you can push your limits outdoors”.
