Sorry for the late response. Its fall now and the rain has been hitting hard. The laptop should be close against your back and it probably wo't get wet, but my books got soaked twice these past few weeks.

Old ones better

By:
June 26, 2009

I think the old one 2007 big shot was better it had a mesh bach not exolite 2007 was much more comfortable. The Old big probably took more work thats probably took more work. Also the made it smaller. This one is 2050 cu in and the old one was 2100 cubic inches. I didn't like this bag at all. I like the old one better

Versatile Day Pack

By:
December 29, 2008

I've had mine for a few months now and it has become my go-to bag for all my day-to-day stuff, essentially replacing 3 of my older bags. It is very durable and things are very easy to get to. The two outside stash pockets are great for my camera gear, and the various zippered compartments and little pockets inside the bag are extremely usefull (phone, ipod, pen pockets, Moleskine, CD's)

For work I use it to carry my laptop, Wacom tablet, cables, several notebooks and pads, phone, ipod, DSLR, 2x lenses, spare battery, and tons of little odd's and end's in the various little pockets inside. For day hiking I can carry all the food and survival gear I need for a 2 day trip, camera, and a small summer/spring sleeping bag. The laptop sleeve will accommodate a water bladder (i.e. Camelbak) and has a slot at the top of the pack where the hose can come out and the loops on the strap can hold the mouthpiece in place. And when I go out of town it easily caries about 1/2 of the stuff I carry for work, plus 2-3 days worth of clothes and shave kit.

Organizer panel

By:
March 2, 2009

The Big Shot rocks, and definitely looks cool. Its ONLY DOWNFALL is that the organizer panel is in the main compartment, and, like others have said, nearly inaccessible if you are carrying a full load of gear, laptop, etc. Many (most) of the other, larger, north face daypacks have the organizer panel in a separate compartment and this is a MUCH better design. My Big Shot is several years old and in great condition (almost no wear), but I am going to get a Hot Shot next time for this fact.

The pack sounds perfect for the 2 day hikes I'll be going on in the Adirondacks. In the description it says the zippers are waterproof... what about the pack itself? Very important to know...

The pack itself is nylon, and is not waterproof, but either are the zippers to be perfectly honest. "Waterproof" zippers are very water resistant, but not 100% water-tight. These types of zippers and pockets will help keep gear like your cell phone or wallet from getting soaked in a sudden rain shower. That said, I'd recommend a pack cover for a truly waterproof solution.

I dig it!

By:
January 19, 2009

I was looking for a pack that could double as a school bag and a camping/hiking bag. This was it! It's perfect for trekking around campus with text books and a laptop, as well as holding my summer camping stuff.

PS- The green color ROCKS.

Actually there are several pockets on the inside that would hold an mp3 player and there is a hole on the top that is used to route the hose for a hydration bladder through that comes out right behind your neck. i believe as long as your headphone cord is long enough you could run the cord through that opening and listen with no problems, you would just have to open the pack to turn it on and off.

There is hollow compartment at the base of the back padding where the belt strap on both sides can be tucked into.

I wouldn't say it's waterPROOF, but definately waterRESISTANT. Nothing that a watertight sealing spray couldn't fix.
