Customer Reviews The North Face Surge

Great backpack. Perfect for organizing and carrying around everything I need for class at college. Much nicer than the previous surge II version. Would highly recommend. Lifetime guarantee is an added bonus!

The bag is plenty roomy for regular commuting. Really comfortable.

I use this as an everyday bag for work and travel. When traveling, it often turns into our day bag for camera, extra batteries, jackets, snacks, etc. It is a great all-purpose bag.

Super for my college student. Good room for books and the laptop is well protected. I am taking this to Europe and it will also serve me as a weekend travel bag.

My son needed a good quality backpack, so this is where we got it. He carries lots of big books/binders and they all fit. Very pleased!!

Very good

This product was a a gift for my boyfriend, and he absolutely loved it. The backpack was very stylish, and it has many compartments.The North Face products that I own have all been very durable, so I'm expecting this backpack to last as well.

Ordered as a gift, was requested because of durability and water resistance

This was a gift for my son. He did the research, but I must say this is the BEST designed pack I have ever seen! Worth every penny!!

I use the product mostly for school. I usually carry two laptops and multiple books. The bag has a generous amount of pockets and rooms for everything I need to take with me. It also feels great on my back with a comfortable fit. I travel quiet a bit as well so the surge is just what I need when I go through security checks and not to mention looking stylish without sacrificing comfort.

I use this as my work brief case, and it is excellent. Would definitely recommend.

I bought this for my son who is a college student. In his words, "the backpack is perfect!" He's very happy with it.

I needed a new backpack for school/travel that had a designated area for my laptop. This bag is great for traveling and very comfortable with a heavy load in a day to day basis. The price is a little on the high side if you just want something to carry your books in but the overall quality and durability of the bag make it well worth the money IMO.

This backpack is well designed and contains many useful features. The description of the product on the website was consistent with what I received. No surprises there. The backpack well built with high quality materials. I am extremely pleased with my purchase and plan to use it both for my commute and travel.

This was a gift for my college bound daughter. She loves it! She puts everything in it from her laptop to water bottle. It holds that and all her books. She claims weight distribution is fantastic! To top it off, the warranty is unbeatable. This is worth every dime!

I use this product mostly for school. As a art student it's vital that I have a pack pack that can carry my laptop comfortably, as well as all my art supplies. Which it does the best out of any other backpack and brand I've tried.

I will use it for school

Great for a gift for a first year college student

I use it for work and travel. Hold my laptop, tools, cords, Over the Ear headphones, and glasses. It has comfort lined pockets so nothing gets scratched and nothing rattles.

Love the style and durability of this backpack. And I love the lifetime warranty. These take a beating but still hold up. I only purchase NF backpacks

Use this backpack for school. Keeps my laptop protected.

I had the same North Face backpack for 7 years and it just finally wore out. This new backpack will definitely hold up for the same duration or beyond. I love the design, colors and organizational aspects of this backpack.

I use the product practically for everything you can imagine, biking, outdoors, traveling, school, books, etc. There things that are great about it is that it's so comfortable but also lightweight! The fact that it can be used for everything is just an amazing thing! If there are things that aren't so great i would also like to know because in my opinion there is not a thing that's wrong about this product!

Gift for our daughter who carries a lot of weight for school items, books, laptop, etc. Much easier on her back then other packs we have tried.

Excellent backpack. Using it for school and it fits everything that I need. Very comfortable to wear
