The North Face Sweeper Laptop Backpack
While The North Face makes a series of daypacks in the 1,850-cubic-inch range, the Sweeper remains our favorite for mixing business and sports pleasures. Besides the oversized stretch mesh pouch for a basketball, the Sweeper also has extra large side water bottle pockets and enough room for your gym clothes and laptop. Past incarnations included a separate clothing compartment, but this updated design takes functionality a step further with a practical universal sleeve for your personal computer or hydration bladder. You'll also find a secondary compartment with an organizer to accommodate your pens, pencils, laser pointers and corporate note pads. Keep in mind that the extra features add a few extra ounces and an inch or two of length compared to other North Face backpacks with similar carrying capacities, but if you're looking for an easy way to take your ball and go home, the Sweeper helps you keep your act together.

Best College Pack
I have this pack for about 2 years now and it it in perfect shape just a little dirty and washes out very easily. The bottom pouch is great for my work out cloths. There is plenty room for all my stuff.

i love this backpack
This backpack fits my 17" dell computer and all my books. The shoulder straps are great, I can carry 3 college science books and more and it's still comfortable. The front storage is great for odd shaped items because you can just clip it in and go.

Love it, Love it, Love it
This is a fabulous bag! I love this bag because it fits both my notebook (macbook pro 15) and my wet clothes from swimming. The oversize water bottle pockets are great. The front compartment has lots of smaller pockets. Only thing, the key chain holder in the back compartment could have been moved to the front. Otherwise, a perfect daypack for college and sports!...
