The North Face Ruckus Shoulder Bag - 2150 cu in - 2007

The North Face Ruckus Shoulder Bag is the mother of all messenger bags. This thing has a whopping 35-liter capacity, including a compartment for your laptop. A padded, adjustable shoulder strap and optional waist-belt disperse the load for comfortable carrying. The Ruckus sling bag's PVC tarpaulin lining keeps your cargo dry if it's drizzly out or you if you're toting a 12-pack and the unthinkable happens. The North Face gave this large messenger bag a zip front compartment with an organizer to keep smaller items readily available. The horizontal daisy chain lets you clip biners to your bag when you load it up with rope and head to the crags.

Bottom Line: Holds everything you need to cause a ruckus.

Too big.

Meh. The bag is fine. Comparable in size to the Large size Timbuk2, and cheaper, and sans Velcro (which is nice). But as the other reviews imply, this bag is very large. Too large I would say. I'm 5'8 160lbs, and the bag was wider than me when on my back. If I were walking down the aisle of an airplane, and I had this thing loaded up and over my shoulder, it would probably hit people on both sides as I walked past them.

In conclusion: The construction of the Timbuk2 seems to be a bit nicer and better thought out, but, not $100 better thought out. So, if you need a huge bag (I fit my 15inch laptop, 3 law school text books, a 3 inch binder, and still had room to toss in a pair of sneakers and gym clothes), and you don't have the money to burn on the Timbuk2, then this bag will do you fine. Although, I would imagine that actually carrying this thing around while it is fully loaded would be quite cruel to your shoulder.

Super Bag

By:

This is a great big bag, literally! I bought it for school because so far no other messenger bag has been able to comfortably handle the job. It is great and holds everything I need. Plus, the pvc lining would make it super easy to clean if I spilled something. Also, it holds my 15.4" laptop with no problem and would hold a 17" if needed. However, I keep my laptop on neoprene skin for extra cushion because even though there is a padded panel on the inside there is not much to protect it on the outside(but the only thing there is your leg...). Overall, this is a great bag and I would recommend it to a friend.

I got this for my son for his first year (this fall) in college. He loves it. A lot of space for his laptop, etc.

I would recommend this bag!
