Customer Reviews The North Face Surge

TheBackpack is great I have been using it for school and haven't had a problem with space. Its a very durable backpack so pencils don't poke through it. I highly recommend this backpack for anyone who is going to use it for school.

This bookbag is the biggest and best book at I have ever had! It is super super comfy for your body when you carry it! It also has many many compartments in it for EVERY single item you need a space for! The handle I didn't think would come in use but it does very very much!! I love this backpack so much. The inside of some pockets are so so soft and I trust my electronics in them 100%!! The compartment for my laptop is completely separate so I don't have to take out everything just to get to my laptop it's a breeze!! I love this book bag, it's the best.

Although this backpack have fantastic room, the only con I find about this pack is that, when you wear it with not that much item the backpack strap grinds against your neck making it uncomfortable.

Graduation gift for oldest granddaughter. Headed to college. She was delighted. Order was painless, arrived on time, no hassel.

This is honestly the best backpack. You can use it for multiple occasions and, it will do a prodigious job in keeping everything safe! If you need a back pack this is the ONE!

The best i have so far.

As a h.s. graduation gift to my college bound daughter I searched high and low for the right backpack for her. Given her size and all the stuff she'll be toting around campus (laptop, cell, tablet, books, etc. etc.) the SURGE is the answer! The web video was very, very helpful and did a great job of "showing" all the features so I could make sure I was buying the right backpack.

It's a great backpack and I definitely intend to use it everyday for school and general traveling purposes. This is my first Northface backpack (I own two other jackets and LOVE the quality) and so far I am very pleased with the overall quality, feel and design of the backpack.

Great amount of pockets. One for computer, another for books and such, and then one more for accessories. Could be used for a lot of situations.

The colors are so cute. And it's durable and makes my backpack feel so light even though it weighs almost 70 pounds

Unbeatable quality, even better support.

This backpack is so sturdy and made so well. I love it for college and I'm so happy with my purchase. The quality is so amazing.

This is by far the best backpack I have ever owned! It is a great size, not too small and not tremendous. The cushioning on the straps is such a pleasure and eleviates pressure from my shoulders and back. The design is perfect for High School.

This is by far one of the best backpacks I have gotten. I have been known to use my backpacks for 3 or 4yrs before getting a new one. I will be using this backpack for school. Having the laptop compartment makes life so much simplier. My school laptop will not only fit but there is still room to have a laptop case in it also. The main pocket has lots of space to fit notebooks and folders while still feeling roomy. I love how the front pocket has so many compartments. I can fit my pencil pouch, calculator, notecards, etc. without making constant stops to my locker. This backpack will definitely come in handy when track starts up also. I had trouble not having enough space with my old backpack and having to carry all my books. With this backpack I'm hands free because everything fits. It can get a little heavy if packed too full, but hey what backpack doesnt.

My girlfriend recently got a job that will involve a significant amount of air travel, and her old backpack was not going to cut it in terms of storage size and features. I cannot emphasize enough how great the TSA-approved laptop sleeve is. She did not believe me that it would make a noticeable difference going through airport security, but the first trip she took this backpack on, she called me to apologize and tell me I was absolutely correct. Additionally, this backpack has excellent pocket organization. There are multiple sections of varying size to store anything needed during a trip from jackets to notebooks, and there is my personal favorite feature, the organizer pocket in which there are several pouches and pockets for various electronics and gadgets. The backpack fits airlines' size requirements for carry-ons, and it stows comfortably beneath the seat. The colors are distinct enough to give it an individual feel without being garish and juvenile. Again, I could not be more pleased with this purchase, and you will not find a sturdier, more feature-packed bag than this.

I am excited to give this pack to my daughter for her birthday. I looks like a very nice, well-made pack. I appreciate the fact that it's guaranteed for life, since we have not had great luck with other backpacks from other brands lasting.

It may have been pricier than the backpacks I carried prior to college but I know it is going to last so much longer. It's clearly well made and sturdy but on the off chance something should go wrong I know I've got the lifetime warranty. The pocket for my laptop is genius and I know it will be protected. It has so much organzied space so its perfect for all of the things I'll be carrying.

This is a great bag that's fits everything you need and is convenient throughout the bag from the computer casing to the two external pockets. It is great for traveling on a plane or hiking through the mountains. It is the bag that fits everyone's needs!

Got this backpack for my nephew for his birthday. Met all the checks....many colors to choose from, durable, "cool" for school, holds laptop, and books. This backpack looks awesome and looks like it will last more than one school year with a teenage boy!

I can't hike at all, but I do have to walk (or run) across my huge college campus carrying my heavy books, laptop, etcetera. With the Surge backpack I have the best possible weight distribution and tons of extra space, with so many pockets and pouches that everything has its own tidy compartment. The lining is very protective and soft for electronics, which is a great bonus. The pack even looks very stylish and the materials are super durable (more so than previous models, even). This bag will last easily three times as long as my last bags, which have literally torn apart, so the price is way worth it. Your back will thank you.

While I have not had this bag long, it has performed well. It also holds more than it initially appears and has some nice pockets in smart places. I particularly like the fleece lined areas for things like sunglasses and electronics!

This is the best backpack I have ever had. I love all the pockets it has and its sleek design. It is easy to tell that it is well made and well thought out.

I bought this backpack To ise for school and it is the best bacpack I have ever purchased and fits all my books and laptop perfectly.

This backpack is super comfortable.

I have had a lot of backpacks over the years...this one is at the top of my list. I am not ashamed to say that I am a nerd. Yep, I pack quite a few books home everyday, along with my cross country and track gear. I have tons of room to stuff my electronics and gadgets as well. The best part of this backpack is the comfortability factor. It was made to fit my body. The BEST purchase I have made so far this year...I won't be buying any other brand..I'm stuck on The Surge.
