Great For Travel And Work

Got this for a trip abroad because of all of the storage options and now using it for work. Holds multiple laptops and tons of places to store other stuff like hard drives, work materials and chargers/cords. Really like it.

My 2nd Surge

As dramatic as it sounds I credit this backpack to saving my life. Its durability was able to withstand a highway speeds motorcycle accident the which not only were all of my items still intact and not scattered amongts the parkway but my back was spared from the rest of the injuries I sustained. It was reliable enough to get me though college and through an accident which could have been much worse with diferent conditions. I will absolutely and gladly get myself another Surge and put it though much less rigorous of a stress test next time.

So Small

Best backpack is so tight and hard to get stuff in and out of. Not practical for a high school student.

Great Backpack!

I bought this backpack a month ago for my high school daughter. She had a smaller North Face backpack but was not able to fit all of her notebooks, computer, and lunch into it. This backpack is larger enough to fit everything! It has a lot of pockets to organize all of your things. My daughter is loving it;)
