Customer Reviews The North Face Surge

Great ergonojy

Use it for school and I'm able to put all of my necessary school supplies. It has many pockets to put little items.

I can fit my MacBook Pro, and lots of extra storage areas

I was in Chicago and it was very very useful!! I love the brand.

I bought this pack for my trip to the Galapagos. I needed a travel bag that could not only secure my laptop but also have easy access to my travel documents and hold my hiking accessories. This backpack has pockets & separated compartments for everything you need. My new favorite pack!

Use this every day at school. It's a great backpack with loads of pockets for different belongings.

Very waterproof, great for the outdoors and school stuff. Definitely would recomend for school and commuthing

Use it for work every day and travel or whenever I need it. Like the pack set up plenty of places that are separated from each other. Only drawback is had a thread that was loose and in a zipper and it pulled out not sure if it cut something loose or not.

A gift to my son who doesn't like anything. He really liked the bag and loaded his belongings in it and soon as he popped the tag off.

This backpack is everything I need for an on-the-go college student. Since I am constantly on the road driving back and fourth. This backpack is very compatible! First of all the water bottle pockets on each side have ELASTIC BANDS so my 40oz hydroflask fits! There are about 4 zipper pockets in the front of it! Which is perfect for dividing my materials. I have my feminine care products in a secret zipper pockets and my school supplies in the others! Not to mention there are dividers inside the pockets which is very convenient to organize. My 16 inch laptop has room to spare in the back and because of how thick and protected it is in the pocket I don't even feel it on my back. I can also put my iPad Pro in the back pocket as well and it fits! Because there is an individual padded divider! Perfect to protect your electronics. carrying my devices feel like clouds are on my shoulders. The middle pocket is perfect for notebooks and folders it is very wide so all papers are bound to fit. Overall the backpack is the perfect size and I can fit in all my things! I love it so much!!!! Best purchase I've made for the school year!!!

Great to carry, feels so comfortable on your back even full. Everything is very well made and high quality!

Great

First of all, you need this. This is the most expensive backpack I've ever considered buying but it's been 1000% worth it. I'm 6'0" tall and have scoliosis and I wasn't sure whether to believe that this backpack was actually going to be helpful for bad backs just because the ACA has approved it, but it proved me wrong lol. Second, I do want to say I think it's ridiculous that when I went to buy this backpack, the "women's" version cost $6 more than this one, and that's part of why I got this version. Why does pink tax exist ON BACKPACKS?? And because the "men's" version is slightly bigger and has more space, I chose this one. I've never had such a comfortable backpack. I use this at work as an archaeologist and thing this is packed with all my gear. I can fit 1 can of bug spray and 1 can of sunblock in 1 outer side pocket and a 40oz hydro flask in the other side pocket. Sadly they're is no water bladder pocket for my 3L camelback bladder, but if I have to go on survey anytime soon my plan is to use one of the back most pockets as a fake bladder pouch area and just let the straw come up thru an opening between the zippers we'll see if that works. My previous backpack from a competitor was 26L so I was really excited to move up to 31L with this bag. But honestly I wish it was a 35L bag because I would love enough space to get my lunch bag (pictured) to fit inside. With all my other gear, I usually don't have space for it with the way the pockets are structured. But god do I love all the pockets. So far I think they're brilliant. There's a laptop pocket (or a few really?) but I stick my iPad in there. And then my field clipboard in the back-most section and then 2 osteology reference books in the front-most section of the "laptop" zippered area. The next pocket towards the front, you could fit more notebooks or maybe one textbook, or anything you want, but I wish this pocket had more space. All the other pockets I've packed with small gear and digging tools.

Perfect for a nursing student! It has several compartments and room for your laptop as well. 10 out of 10 recommend.

My son is rough in his stuff. This backpack is up for his challenge!

The quality is awsome, highly recommended, i am using this for my law school.
