Why We Like The Router 40L Backpack

Stash your laptop in The North Face Router Backpack, hop on your trusty, two-wheeled steed, and enjoy the ride across campus. A little jostling is no big deal to the Router, which features a padded laptop compartment for your most valuable asset, as well as a secondary compartment for books and binders.

My Router Backpack meets all of my needs for leisure, travel and work. It has ample room, is waterproof, helps protects my back; thank you American Chiropractic Association and the added bonus, has a lifetime warranty. It doesn't get any better!

Love this backpack!

I use this product for work. I am a service technician in the Midwest. This pack is amazing for traveling from local service centers. It fits everything needed for daily tasks and when you need to pack for a week long trip. Recommend this backpack for larger gear packs. Slightly longer than my original pack but loving the extra room!

A spacious, durable, and stylish backpack!

This backpack is a joy to use. It's spacious, durable, and stylish. I feel comfortable using it for work with its large compartment for my laptop and gear. It's also great for excursions outdoors. It holds my water bottles with room to spare. Ergonomically, I like how it feels - including the rubberized tassels on the zippers. The North Face continues to make quality gear and I'm a big fan.

Great buy for high school student

This was for my freshman daughter for high school and at first she wasn't thrilled to have a plain black and bigger size backpack to carry around. But after a week using it she tells me she loves it! She can fit all her books, notebooks, laptop, water bottle, and all her other miscellaneous personal items and still have room for even more stuff. This was a great buy which she can use for many years to come in school.

Great backpack for high performing high school student

Great backpack for high school student in advanced classes who uses numerous textbooks, notebooks and computer. Very large backpack, student should be larger to handle comfortable. Easily takes 32oz Owala in both pockets (if you want)
