I've been looking all over the place for a backpack the fits a 17.3 inch laptop and a change off clothes, minimum. Trying to keep it under $100.

Any have some recommendations that they have used?

i have the 3 year old version of this one and its a beast. Its relatively small and compact when you look at it, it doesnt look huge but you can fit a LOT in there. Ive had my 15" laptop, 2 pairs of shoes, a couple shirts, and a bunch of other stuff in there at the same time and there was still room. Ive also put 2 30's of beer (out of the box...one 30 in the box will easily fit also) in there with ease back when i had to....just a couple example. And its the quality and durability youd expect from north face.

 

my laptop has a 17" screen n fits in my old school backpack I got about 5 years ago

 

+1 on northface. i have one, fit 17.3 laptop with cables. and a 360 with cables. haha

 

mines a starter and would fit a xbox in it too lol

 

yeah, i figure when I need to, I can put the laptop in the bag, and the 360 in the cortech tail bag. I'll check the north face.

thx

I used this bag through 4 years at college, and use it on my motorcycle when needed (its really comfortable when riding, barely feel it on your back)

Its a great backpack, and is really durable as it still looks brand new almost 5 years later.

The pictures on ebags make it look bigger than it is.

 

I'm trying to find a tankbag that will hold my 14"x9" laptop, now that I've done some internet research and am satisfied that the bag's magnets won't scramble my hard drive.
