This is my first North Face Backpack that I have purchased. One thing i love about this backpack is very comfortable with adjustable everything and comes with many compartments. As for the built in laptop sleeve it has protection on the bottom and both sides. It has lots lots of room for all your school supplies and more.This is an awesome backpack and worth the every cent of it.

I have found this backpack to be extremely practical for a college student. My computer seems well protected with plenty of other pockets for my books and other miscellaneous items. It is a little pricey at about $120.00, but worth it.

I bought this for my daughter who just started college and she had it suggested to her and I am so glad I spent the money because it was well worth it and the product is of First Grade and Very Classy and is Very Comfortable and light and supportive and it carries a 17 inch laptop so I am quite impressed about it knowing that I bought it for my daughter.An excellent purchase. I would purchase from NorthFace or Back Country in a Moment because any purchase you would have you would never worry about it being of of the greatest quality and construction and very well put together.lkyspgot57@aol.com

This bag is used mainly for school and my computer, but I have used it for my weekends in the Army and many other things. I would suggest it as a great bag for anyone wanting to carry a lot of stuff.

It is very comfortable and seems to be well-designed ergonomically.

I'd buy another one if I had the need.

Sturdy and more protective padding (laptop pocket) than their lesser priced models. Obviously attractive, but it is the solid stitching and comfort that makes this pack worth the price.

I just got this pack in red the other day and I already love it. The image makes it look huge (which it's capable of) but it can squeeze super tight so you're not carrying an empty duffel bag around campus. Awesome laptop padding and good number of pockets. It's real comfy and looks damn good.

Great value, solid design. This is a good pack. I've been using on the trails, traveling etc... and it's a nice all round bag. Quality is holding up fine so far. Nicely flexible in terms of its possible uses.

I bought this backpack based on a review from other people on the website. I really didn't know what to expect when I bought this backpack. I knew North Face backpacks are really good so I decided to buy this one. It looked great and had lots of pockets. When the bag came in the mail, I was astonished! The backpack feels great on your back and you can fill the bag with lots of stuff and it still feels light. It has excellent chest and waist straps for extra support. Yes, it is a little pricey but well worth the price. I recommend it to anybody. :)

Originally, I purchased the pack for travel, business/laptop and the gym. But, just got back from hiking in UT and it was great for that too especially since you can expand or compact as needed.

This is a great bag. I originally purchased it for my laptop. I was a little hesitant when i saw the price, but then i quickly realized that i spent almost two thousand on the laptop. The laptop compartment is heavily padded and my 16 inch Hp fits perfectly inside. I have found myself using this bag everyday. The bag can fit a bunch of stuff and can also be kept smaller by tightening two straps on the side of the bag. I have had this bag for a couple of months and it seams very durable. The zippered compartments are excellent for keeping things separated and the zippers are larger and look like they will not wear out or break. The people at North Face created a aesthetically pleasing backpack that definitely gets the job done!

Awesome use it all the time for carrying my books and for trips its overall an awesome bag and very spacious!!
