Built for a rough commute.
The Hot Shot is much more than a book bag. The North Face used all of its technical backcountry pack knowledge when it designed the Hot Shot. Comfortable FlexVent shoulder straps allow air through so your shoulders aren't covered in sweat when you get to class. The removable sternum strap is there when you need it, not when you don't, and mesh side pockets carry your water bottles so you can make it to class well-watered, even if class is a 15-mile hike.

Love It!

Been using an old alpinestar backpack that was simply too big. I travel a lot for business and also carry a backpack to and from the office daily. Sometimes I need to cram it, sometimes I don't. I really like the fact that I can tighten the bag up when only traveling with a few items when I need it without having a big bulky pack on my back like I have always done. I also use the water bottle spots to carry an umbrella when I travel (which is needed for trips to NYC and SF frequently) Pros: - Fits my 13" MBP perfect
- Can compact the bag by tightening the straps when needed
- Plenty of pockets up front to store stuff
- Stylish
- Lightweight
- Can hide waist straps
- Comfortable Straps and backing!
- Many More Cons: - one that bothers me is that the zipper for the main compartment is towards the front of the backpack and not the back, this makes it difficult at times to pull the laptop out, although, not a huge deal, just a little peeve of mine.

Amazing Purchase

I bought this bag early fall of 2012, and I couldn't have made a better purchase. I was in my local sporting goods store and knew I wanted a new bookbag for classes. Deciding between The Northface and Patagonia- I found that The Northface bags were much more durable and felt well designed on my back. My biggest concern when purchasing the bag was the style, how much could fit, and how comfortable it was to wear. This bag is everything I could want and more. I purchased the Hot Shot in the 'Summit Gold Ripstop' and it literally matches with everything. I didn't think I would like the color, but this bag has made me fall in love with it. Also- the picture online doesn't do it justice- this is a gorgeous bag! So thankful to The Northface for this awesome bag, I would make this purchase a hundred times over.
it has helped me take my books to class numerous days so far and I'm excited to use it on a hike!
Thank you!
SUPER recommend!

Read this review!!!!!!!

this is a great pack. My favorite parts of the pack are the staps and the well... All of it : ). The space is good and the many pockets range from perfect pencil holders to excellent bottle holders. The straps have this type of foam that will not wear away underneath the pe foam, it's great for long days hiking or just everyday things like to school and work.I use this pack regularly and the only thing I have to complain about is that some of the stitching came loose on the foam covering but it doesn't affect the strap comfort or quality. There are many other backpacks on this sight but this one is more for traveling,work,and school. I hope you find this review helpful because the other ones like this sure helped me pick the perfect backpack for me : )

Nearly Perfect Bag

This is a great bag that can be utilized in many different activities. First off, I'm a college student and this bag is great for handling the load of heavy textbooks while not placing any strain on your back. The bag design has safety in mind with the built in whistle in the buckle and it is loud! Secondly, I'm a bit of a Prepper and this is a great bag if you just need something to carry the bear essentials; it can take a beating and is very packable and doesn't take up too much space. My only concern/question for the North Face is if it ideal or manageable to waterproof the bag on my own?? Besides that, this bag is simply amazing!

Totally AWESOME!!!

I got this backpack to replace my MEC Deluxe Bookbag, pretty sure I chose the right pack. This bag can easily fit 2, 1.5" binders with a textbook and large lunch bag. I use this mainly for school use, its great and holds lots of stuff while still looking slim on you back. The actualy back is firm, though it is not a frame, and really is quite comfortable for the whole day. I would highly recommend this bag to anybody, no matter the sport/lifestyle it would be used for. Cheers!

Worth the Money. No backpack for 10 yrs

Sunnysport is the place where you can get this backpack for [$]. All the other website are having [$] minimum. Great deal. I would recommend anyone who is buying TNF backpack, they buy it from Sunnysport. The hot shot is fantastic. I need not buy another one for the next 10/15 yrs :-). Great build quality, sleek and stylish.

I love this backpack!

I have been using a hit shot backpack since I was a freshman in college and now I am a senior. I am totally loyal to this backpack and it has held everything I needed. I really like that it is endorsed by the ACA. my back loves this backpack too. get this product!

hot shot

Solid material and travel-friendly. I especially appreciate the padded back panel for laptop. The many pockets in the front are good for passport, pens, contact lens case, ipod, and etc. Also, I noticed many travelers eyeing my backpack while going through airports; probably because of The North Face brand name and the style.
rogeezie at The North Face on 03/31/2012

Great pack

Took this pack to Shenandoah on a hiking trip the day after I got it in the mail. Straps are very comfortable. Plenty of pockets, The daisy chain is great for clipping my GPS onto so it wont fall out while hiking. Great pack, I also use it for work now as well,

'03 HOT SHOT

Got my Hot Shot backpack several years ago and it has withstood travel from NC to FL and to Asia and the Philippines. This pack and been really reliable and still remains in great condition. Hot Shot has been my go to beach backpack as well...would recommend to all.
