How to Choose Daypacks

By Activity

Hiking: can hold a water reservoir and available in different torso sizes for right fit
Climbing: narrow profile, abrasion-resistant reinforcements
Traveling: pockets or compartments for organization, carry-on size

Capacity

Packs that hold 20L or less are best for runs, day hikes, mountain biking or short trips.
Packs between 20–35L are great for longer day hikes and as a travel carry-on.
Packs holding 35–50L work for extended trips and mountaineering or climbing that calls for extra equipment.

The pack itself it great. It is comfortable for my petite jr high daughter to carry everything she needs. I chose this brand for durability and am hoping it can last several years like my old one. One big issue for longevity is the zippers that use the corded pulls. It's a trend at her school now for the pulls to be stolen which then makes the zipper difficult to use. The cords also don't look like they will be as durable as a normal metal pull. Not North Face's fault that kids are stealing them, but still a bummer to pay so much for a bag and already be looking for replacement parts.

I use it for work and it's been great so far. It's very light weight and super durable! I love how it barely feels like I'm carrying anything at all! I just wish the part where it holds a labtop was just a bit bigger or wider

The backpack seems very nice, but it arrived missing 4 of the zipper pulls. Customer Care has not been all the helpful in sending new ones and continuously asks for photos and details on the product.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Honestly this backpack is perfect! I'm so impressed with the amount of thought that went into the details. There's multiple padded pockets to protect glasses and other things you don't want scratched. The front pockets are so helpful for organizing stuff I need to grab quickly . The laptop pocket has thick padding and an extra pocket that is the perfect size for a tablet. Both pockets are elevated from the bottom of the backpack for added protection. Hands down though, the very best part about the backpack is how dang comfortable it is! I was honestly shocked! It forms to your back and you can't feel the laptop through it at all (I have a 13" MacBook Air). It's so versatile and I plan on using it for work, travel, day trips, etc.

Used mainly for travel, so two aspects stand out. One, the shoulder straps are very comfortable and quite stable so the pack doesn't require a waist belt. Two, the pockets are very well thought out, realistically sized and intuitively laid out. You basically can access electronics or a book or docs without having to forage through the large main pocket. The pockets mostly have their own volume so they don't take away from the main pocket volume which is a big plus. Overall, as usual TNF did a nice job thinking practically and economically about the use case for this pack and came up with a winner. Note, it is a large pack, it can carry as much as some carry-ons, when fully loaded not all airlines will allow this as a "personal item"

My daughter needed a larger backpack for high school after she overstuffed her middle school Northface backpack that was 20L and busted the zipper. I expected this to look huge at 31L, but it has ergonomic storage that fits a ton, but doesn't look bulky. So stylish with the rose gold details - totally worth a few more dollars with a picky high school teen. She loves all the pockets to organize. The design of the pockets are neat and easy to find your stuff. Northface quality with the look of fashionable brands. Well done Northface!

I bought this to replace my 15 year old Surge backpack which I used on a daily basis and traveled the globe (more on that below) I loved all the different pockets, I could easily find what I was looking for without the need for light. Everything has its proper place. Worth noting, my 15 year old backpack is in good condition, i suspect it has 15 more good years in it. Unfortunately it has taken on an odor I just can't get rid of although you can only smell it if you put your nose on the backpack. Anyway, it was annoying me so i went looking for a replacement. I was happy to see that the Surge is still around. My only negative comment is the lack of color selection. Light colors show dirt to easily (white?!?!?), and black is boring. Would have liked a bit more variety
