A good backpack surely sits atop the list of campus essentials. Enter the JanSport Firewire, a 2,000-cubic-inch backpack that will serve as a student's closest companion throughout his or her school-age years and beyond. The Firewire offers dual AirLift shoulder straps made of a flexible, shock-absorbing elastomer material that's designed to distribute the weight evenly across your back--a must when carrying heavy loads.

Add in a ShockShield padded laptop sleeve--which is designed to hold laptops as large as 15 inches--and you have everything you need for your on-the-go school activities. Other pockets include a front utility pocket with a deluxe organizer, a soft tricot-lined loft pocket for valuables, a side MP3 player pocket, and a side mesh water bottle slot. The Firewire--which also includes a breathable mesh back panel and a padded neoprene grab handle--measures 12.5 by 20 by 10 inches (W x H x D) and weighs 2 pounds 8 ounces.

Product Description
Can you imagine a world without backpacks? Neither can we. Yet it wasn't long ago that they were strictly outdoor gear. One fall in the late sixties, the JanSport team heard that students were using the brand's small cross country daypacks to cross campus instead. It made sense with comfortable padded straps, and easy access front panel opening and catch resistant nylon zippers the bags were just as great for carrying books as they were for carrying gear. Seeing the potential the team made a few notebook worthy design adjustments including the addition of a durable vinyl base to improve weight capacity. Soon after, JanSport began selling the first ever campus backpacks into college bookstores around the country.
