Surge Backpack is the perfect graduation gift!

I bought the Surge Backpack for my 18yo nephew. He is about to graduate from high school, so I was looking to buy a bag that could be used for college, travel, gym and possibly work. As you know, there are many travel backpacks to choose from, but his sister has a North Face backpack that she has used for several years and highly recommended North Face bags. He opened the bag on his birthday and it has many storage pockets, roomy interior and it's made of a durable material. It's a hit!!!!

Possibly the best bag I've ever had

This backpack replaced the one I had previously had for 10 years. I got it on a recommendation from a friend of mine and once I got hands on with the bag and saw all the different pockets I was sold! This bag has a mind boggling amount of storage but even when completely packed it never feels unwieldy or uncomfortable! After just over a month of use I am confident that this bag will last and be a perfect replacement for my old one!

Best briefcase/gym bag option I could find on the market.

Excellent bag for gym and general use along with work brief case. Plenty of pocket and zipper options. The only recommendations I would make is having the main clothing compartment a hair bigger/fatter and changing the design so that is stands upright on it's own,..or leans back on a wall vs falling forward.

Solution to multiple needs - versatile and comfortable

Needed a backpack that was versatile. I have long day hikes with a good amount of gear, but also cross country flights for which I want a space for my laptop and a puffer for when I land. This backpack has done it all.

Awesome, only have 1 critique

Loved how it worked! Great storage capacity. Only thing is that it lacked a bigger main compartment.

Less volume and less usable volume than the previous version

I dearly loved the previous version of this backpack. I'm disappointed that this one has less actual volume and less usable volume than the previous model.
