Best school backpack I've used!!
I've been using this Surge backpack since 2019 and it has been great! I've heard my family's thoughts on the newer model of the same backpack and they are not as impressed. The straps are more prone to breaking and the seams have started tearing pretty early in the life of their backpack. This being said, my older model has been so great! It's gone through years of hauling notebooks, folders, textbooks, water bottles, and clothes for practice after school. One of the shoulder straps did begin to tear last year (2024) slightly but a quick stitch-job has got it back to working order. I would definitely buy a North Face backpack again!

Does not stand unsupported
I bought the Surge since North Face describes its "ability to stand unsupported". It does not. The backpack keeps falling. This is a deal breaker for me. I was looking for a backpack that can stand and wouldn't have bought the Surge if I had known that I will have to find a chair or a wall for it every time.

Timber Tan color way does NOT look like picture
Bottom and water bottle pockets do not match the tan/yellow of the nylon and is a really ugly brown color. Material feels very thin and zippers for smaller pockets are not good quality.

DID NOT PROTECT MY MACBOOK AIR AT ALL
My North Face Surge BackPack DID NOT PROTECT my MacBook Air AT ALL. The bag slipped from my hand from waist height onto the street, and, I fully expected it to have protected my laptop but it didn't. One of the corners of my laptop is completely ruined and I was lucky that the screen has remained intact. I bought this bag specifically because it supposedly offered a suspended compartment for the laptop and, up top it gives you the false sense of protection since it is heavily cushioned. But, on the bottom, where it matters most, it's thin/no cushion AND the edges of the laptop compartment are perforated (not sewn together). This unprotected bottom corner of the laptop compartment has caused my laptop's edge to hit the ground and absorb the impact, smashing its aluminum body! I am really disappointed in North Face for having cut corners on such an expensive bag, since it has ruined the aesthetics of my machine and caused it to loose resale value.

Great comfortable backpack!
Nice backpack lots of compartments! Very comfortable to wear, and can hold alot. Downside is it does not stand up on its own.

I would buy this backpack again and again.
I use this book bag for work. I love that it has many compartments and I am able to keep everything organized. I also like that my water bottle fits nicely. The pouch for my computer is adequately padded to keep my laptop safe.

Cheap backpack. Ripping everywhere. No warranty backing it.
Shoulder straps ripped, seams ripped, and inside compartments ripped. Not even over filling it or holding anything heavy. NF products are now known as cheap, and they don't stand behind their warranty. They're a logo now, that's it.

Excellent design...sa-WEET pack!
The compartment layout rocks...LOOOOVE the outer pocket interiors, gray and one side, white on the other...smart! Sits comfortably on my back...just wish the hip belt was beefier and had pockets.
