For changing the way we access gear on the fly
The designers at The North Face set out to mechanically rethink the traditional backpack so that it had easy access with one hand or even one finger. The inspiration for the quick-release main-compartment on the Access Pack came from the old-school cassette-tape eject button that snapped open with a quick, audible element to it. Inside, dedicated fleece-lined media pockets feature built-in ejector tabs for swift access to devices. An external laptop pocket with water resistant zippers features a pull handle that lifts a laptop up and out for easy removal.
