Heckler Laptop Backpack 4.7 5 137 137
awesome. backpack. This Heckler backpack has been with me at school and whenever I travel. It is extremely durable. When I am at school I am usually able to carry my notebooks (3-4) and my laptop, with water, and my personal items. The backpack does not feel heavy, and it supports my back all throughout the day while I am carrying it. When I am traveling, it carries everything I need for the whole day and then some. It has many convenient pockets, and I absolutely love it. February 7, 2012
I bought it for college and it didn't disappoint me at all. It large enough to put in a laptop and a few books and couple of binders. I highly recommanded. February 5, 2012
Great College Pack! I am a student at a university and this was just the backpack I needed. It safely protects my laptop and holds all my books. The side straps really take pressure off of your back for heavier loads. I really like that it is water resistant so I don't need to worry about my laptop getting destroyed. It's a great looking backpack and this price will not be beat anywhere else. I strongly suggest this backpack. January 30, 2012
great backpack nice design, size, packable and comfortable. I like the color and it is good choice for a man and woman too. I had no opportunity yet to test it but I'm sure it will be perfect during my mountain trips. I would buy it again! January 25, 2012
Good Purchase I was looking for an all around backpack for everyday use. This one fits the bill perfectly. Very well constructed by a trusted name. I'm very satisified with it and the price could not be beat ANYWHERE! January 7, 2012
Just what he wanted! My grandson was thrilled with his new Heckler Laptop Backpack. He is a sophomore in college and needed something sturdy to carry his laptop to class - - it's just waht he wanted! January 1, 2012
excellent purchase This backpack although a little pricey at first look, it well worth it for the quality. This product is very well made and will last for years and years. It has a padded back panel, confortable straps and different compartments for neat storage. The under armour name has always lived up to my expectations. December 26, 2011
I bought this backpack for my daughter for Christmas, and I know she is going to love it! I like the fact that is has a chest strap and another lower/waist strap. It is going to be perfect for her. December 9, 2011
Best Backpack I've Ever Had! This is certainly the best pack I've ever had. As a law student, I have a lot of large textbooks I need to carry around. This pack can hold the books I need on a daily basis. This pack is also great for activities like bike riding and hiking. It is super durable, lightweight and has plenty of organizational pockets to hold gadgets. October 12, 2011
Great HS backpack My high school daughter loves this backpack as it is durable and fits all of her big books and notebooks. It's very good quality. She likes the colors and feels it will last all through high school. September 29, 2011
excellent backpack Great backpack, comfortable, very spacious, allowing to place inside a lot of things. Large compartment to carry your notebook everywhere. Cute design, made of a material that can withstand the weather. September 21, 2011
Lots of carring capability This backpack is great for city living. Works well for the commute on the train. Carries my laptop, lunch, work shoes and anything else I need for work. September 20, 2011
good looking, light, sturdy backpack received it as a gift for use at college. surprised how light it is. it is smaller than i had expected, which is actually good for me. it is not waterproof but haven't had any problem so far--it's been raining a LOT in new haven, CT. i got a black one, not TNF black, which was on sale. i like it a lot. September 12, 2011
Great Size for High Schooler! This backpack is great! My son can fit large books, lunch, shoes and more. It is sturdy and can also fit his laptop, though he hasn't tried that yet. It is longer than previous ones he has had, so he is very happy. Separate compartments in front perfect for cell phone, calculator, etc. I recommend this backpack after looking around for so many! September 10, 2011
All Purpose Backpack I bought this backpack for my niece who is starting college. She needed room for her laptop, books, and accessories. She is very happy with the backpack. September 7, 2011
The product was shipped to me very quickly and easily. The bag even fits my very large laptop, unlike other bags I have tried. The quality of the product was great. Definitely a great value! September 5, 2011
A Hit for My College Student Purchased the ivory/blue Northface Heckler backpack for my daughter's first year in college. It's a beautiful backpack, the colors are even more striking in realtime than on the website pics. As always, Northface backpacks are the best out there as far as durability and spaciousness go. The extra padding in the shoulders are great, an absolute must-have with all the weight the students have to carry around. The sides on this backpack have expandable clips/straps too, for when you have to carry a laptop, books, and other supplies all at the same time. There are plenty of zipper compartments on the outside as well. You really can't miss in purchasing this backpack for a middle, high school, or college student. It's worth the extra cost. September 2, 2011
Heckler Rocks This backpack will fit two large binders and two text book with ease... I also am excited about the weight distribution feature, since it does hold so much! This could be the last back pack we buy until we send our daughter off to college! Awesome backpack!! August 31, 2011
Great choice for school load I bought this for my daughter who is entering high school. She was using a JanSport previously, and 12 months of use totally trashed it. This new one is roomier and about as light. The zippers are smooth and sewn on well (no loose threads to get it stuck), and the straps have more cushioning. The back support was what first caught my attention about this model, and it feels sturdy and comfortable even when we loaded the bag up with books up to its full capacity (although that should not be the normal case in daily use). Of course the color is what bought my daughter, and I am happy to say that she loves it as much as I am assured of the support and comfort features. I will revise the 4 stars for durability once we have gone through 6+ months of use. All in all, I am happy with the choice, and we shall see if that changes down the road. August 23, 2011
great backpack for college I bought this backpack for my daughter who is starting college. She needed one to carry her laptop and books, but she also wanted it to look good. Loved the color and it is the perfect size. It holds her laptop and her books comfortably. She is very short and the it is not too big for her. Also, the straps on her shoulders make it very comfortable. August 13, 2011
Great purchase on awesome backpack. I purchased this backpack for my daughter for highschool. It was a great purchase. She loves the color. She can easily fit her macbook inside. She is tall and it fits her torso comfortably. She also likes the padding on the straps because her backpack tends to get really heavy. August 9, 2011
Great backpack for a great price! Definitely worth it! I am a pretty petite person, but this backpack fits perfectly for my size and height. Also, it's very comfortable and durable. No problems so far! August 3, 2011
Great Back to School Back Pack! I bought this for my daughter as a surprise back to school pack. She loved the the colors and the adjustable snug fit. She is on the smaller side so it is nice that a large pack can sitll cinch down to fit her snugly. I loved the extra padding in the shoulder straps for when she has a heavy load of books. August 1, 2011
Awesome Backpack I purchased this backpack for college and love it! It's a great size and will fit many books, supplies, and my laptop. It's very durable and has a very attractive design. It is a supportive backpack that won't hurt your back and is great for hiking and the outdoors, too! July 28, 2011
Great Versatility You get the great North Face quality you would expect from this backpack. With a number of compartments, the Heckler backpack is great for a the daily user going to work or school. Highly recommend! July 24, 2011
Great School Backpack! I love my North Face Heckler Laptop Backpack! I use it for school and it carries all my school books and my laptop. I will be using this backpack for years to come! July 17, 2011
Love the quality. Use it for school and fit everything I need. Travel is a breeze when you don`t have to carry a bulky suitcase. I fit everything-everything- I needed for a whole week. Not the best hiking pack, but will do. July 15, 2011
I will only buy North Face Backpacks The heckler is an awesome backpack, with lots of space for everything I needed it to carry for school. I only wish it had more small pockets that I could stow phones, wallets, etc. I've owned 3 north face backpacks during my life (all for school), and have only purchased a new one when I was bored with the old one. One problem I had with this backpack after about 6 months was, because I had to pack it with such heavy books and binders, the top nylon hold began to tear on one side. It still held up, however just frayed on one side. Overall, great backpacks. June 11, 2011
This product is well-made, durable and something I would purchase again. I have previously purchased north face backpacks and they have lasted for years and years. I love to give them away as graduation gifts to friends' children going to college. They are also wonderful not only as school backpacks, but as hiking or traveling backpacks. The variety of pocket sizes is our favorite feature May 10, 2011
Value I was in the market for a new backpack as I've gotten into the habit of carrying one daily over the last year. I wanted one to use daily for work, on weekends for hikes and adventures and for international travel as a carry-on. After checking out all the major manufacturers, I narrowed it down to the TNF Box Shot and this pack. They have similar capacity and assembly quality, but the reasons I chose the Box Shot are that it had better organization with more pockets. and better materials were used in construction. If budget were a consideration, I'd definitely have chosen the Heckler since it's less than half the price and if I preferred one large compartment (as I do in my multi-day backpack) I would have gone with the Heckler. Now it's your turn to choose! May 5, 2011
Awesome Backpack!! I just upgraded to this backpack from a North Face Jester backpack that I've had for 8 years now. It was a huge improvement; the side straps are good for compressing the bulk and has perfect pockets to compartmentalize. I don't use the laptop section, but it is perfect for school/work stuff. The side mesh panels are wide enough to hold more than just water bottles and sturdy elastic to withstand movement. The elastic strap on the front is good for more trail/hiking use for the backpack (it can attach carabiners, shoes, towels, etc.). It can hold a larger capacity than average daily use backpacks and has comfortable shoulder straps and additional lumbar and chest straps for postural support. March 24, 2011
Very nice backpack, i love the look, love the feel. I wish it was a little bit larger, at least in the width dimension. However, it has a great cushion for my laptop, and the 2-compartments are perfect for the way I like to organize my stuff, and love how the side pockets fit my bottles/gloves easily. March 11, 2011
the bag is nice and able to store quite a lot. the one annoyance i have is with the laptop sleeve/pocket. its useful when i have one in there but when i'm not storing a laptop there, it seems to take up unneccesary space with the little dividider/support thing that is at the bottom. other than that though, the bag is very comfortable and has many pockets for storing things. February 17, 2011
Heckler laptop Backpack I purchased the Heckler laptop backpack for my 7th grade daughter. She loves it. The inside is quite detailed, with special lining for her laptop. Provides nice protection for the laptop. Inside there are many well structured areas to hold everything from pens and pencils to cell phone and ipod. The size seams a little long for a 7th grader but she, at 5'4" feels quite comfortable with it on her back. We ordered it in Pink plaid. The "pink" is so subtle my daughter feels it should have been called "blue" plaid, but loves it just the same. However, the inside structure is quite pink. Overall we would recommend this backpack for comfort, style and durability. September 12, 2010
A great buy! This is the best backpack I've ever purchased. It holds a lot without looking really bulky, and when you aren't carrying a big load, the side and bottom straps allow you to compress the pack down for an even slimmer look. The shoulder straps are nicely padded, and I love the mesh pockets on both sides. Being a college student who likes the outdoors, I love that there's plenty of room for books and a sleeve for my laptop, AND the pack is also durable and comfortable enough for all-day hikes. Highly suggested, and well worth the money. August 26, 2010
North Face quality, very durable, perfect size for my laptop! This backpack replaces my brief case and has made the trek back and forth to work for over a year now. It is perfect for carrying a laptop and the all the items I need for a busy day of work! July 14, 2010
Good backpack for school I really enjoy using this backpack everyday for school. It comes with a laptop compartment to hold your laptop and it also has plenty of room to keep binds, folder, and textbooks. Only downside is there is a lot of room so if you dont have that much to bring to school, you are left with extra space. I would definitely recommend this backpack. May 15, 2010
Great backpack Great backpack for adult students. Very roomy. April 8, 2010
Perfect Backpack This backpack fits a lot, my laptop, clothes and whatnot. I bought the Saratoga Green & it looks great. The shoulder straps are very comfortable for wearing all day long. I highly recommend this pack to anyone. March 31, 2010
Great Good backpack. As in feels good at your back. Wish it has lots of pockets and padding at the bottom to protect laptop from falls. Worth for the price. March 17, 2010
Great Pack! This is a great backpack! It's a little pricy but worth every penny, especially when it's being worn for the entire day. The shoulder straps are very comfortable and there is a good amount of back padding. This pack is great for a hike in the woods or a day at the amusement park. A must have. March 14, 2010
Great purchase! I absolutely love my Heckler backpack! It has the perfect amount of pockets and space. Fits me very comfortably! March 8, 2010
Perfect Travel Carry on I got the Cardinal Red for my trip to India,a two week adventure hiking the Himalayas,through rivers,hot weather,old buses...it worked great,my laptop was secure,I had plenty of space for a change of clothes,never had to worry about my documents getting wet,and it was comfortable to carry around. March 1, 2010
Awesome backpack! I absolutely love this bag. I got the Saratoga green and it's a really pretty color. There's so much room in the bag for your laptop and textbooks and still room to pack a lunch or throw in a sweatshirt on top. Overall great bag! February 17, 2010
Perfect for school It is waterproof the laptop compartment is snug and well padded i can walk through any weather without having to worry about anything happening to my laptop. Also the plaid looks pretty sick i get a lot of complements on the bag February 10, 2010
Sweet! I love this backpack! It can carry everything I need for school plus my laptop. This bag is well worth the money. I have not used the bag for hiking yet but I'm sure it will be great. It even has a clip for a camel pack. January 26, 2010
Great Backpack! I bought this backpack because I have heard about how wonderful North Face bags are and I haven't been disappointed. This bag has a lot of great features and is cool looking. Girls, it is a little big, mainly long, but it's not overly big. My Mac book fits perfectly in the laptop holder, which is a big plus! I definitely recommend this bag. January 25, 2010
perfect size This backpack was the perfect size, seems to be durable enough. Love all the pockets. January 13, 2010
I love this backpack This backpack is great!! Not too big, Not too small. Fit comfortably. January 6, 2010
Lovin it Great backpack,looks solid and it is gianormous. My last northface backpack lasted five road hard years, it is still in working order, but it was just time for a new one. I am sure this one will get through the next five no problem. December 31, 2009
Perfect size, great capacity, built to last I travel extensively and also carry a lot of large binders and my laptop for work, and this backpack is perfect for both. I wasn't even a backpack type of person, but the Heckler changed that as soon as it arrived -- and Altrec shipped it very quickly. The backpack is incredibly sturdy and feels very durable. I was amazed at just how much it can hold. It fit everything that once took me two large bags to carry -- and I still had room for more! I'm a 5'3" petite female, and though this bag runs on the large side, it's exactly the right size for me and for what I take on trips and to work. I wish I had this backpack when I was back in college, because it would have been much better than the dinky tote bags I used to carry. The straps on Heckler make carrying anything feel like a dream, and the secondary front pockets help keep smaller items organized. I will be using this backpack for years to come, I'm sure. December 30, 2009
Great Backpack Very Well Made! I am sure my daughter will be using this for years to come. Perfect size, fits comfortably. Service from Altrec.com was wonderful. December 28, 2009
Heckler Laptop Backpack The Northface Heckler backpack came so fast. My daughter loves it! Thanks for the great service. We will definitely shop here again. December 21, 2009
Exactly what I needed Perfect size. Room for laptop, book, and everything my college student daughter needs to have handy for a day on campus! Definitely would recommend! December 21, 2009
Great Bag for Students My son helped carry books for a injured friend at school with his backpack and came home raving about this backpack. Loves the padding on the straps, compact size and laptop sleeve. Great construction all around. He tells me every week how much he loves this pack and he's went through a lot. With the amount of books students carry back and forth, appears to be a great investment December 17, 2009
perfect! Got this as a gift for someone else - so much room in it - even by college student standards - I have the Northface Aurora Borealis and although I've been happy with it - I'd love one of these for myself now! the straps on the bottom and sides make it look like it's not gigantic and make it more compact for when you're not using the space while it fits just about whatever you could want - textbooks, laptop and a change of clothes at LEAST. overall, I would definitely recommend this December 16, 2009
Nice Bag--Meets All My Needs Light and roomy. Love the computer sleeve. Great for college. December 8, 2009
This is a great bag!!! I really like this backpack!! I use it for a high school backpack and it fits all the books I need in it!!! Furthermore, it is very durable and I love the laptop compartment!! However, I wish the side drink pockets were smaller or drawstring because my Propel bottles fall out all the time. Besides that I love this backpack!!! December 5, 2009
Best Bag Ever!! This is the best bag I have ever owned. Extremely roomy and still light. The shoulder straps are very comfortable. November 30, 2009
Great Backpack Very light weight for a large backpack. Laptop compartment seems well padded. Perfect for the college student. Well constructed. November 18, 2009
Great Backpack I bought this for my son he says it is the best backpack.Through the years he has had many brands and styles but this is by far the best. Great workmanship!!! November 11, 2009
Love this bag Lots of space and durable! November 9, 2009
large. This backpack was a little larger than I had wanted. I needed something to put my laptop in, and this seemed like it would be perfect, but when I put it on, I felt like I had a turtle shell on my back. November 4, 2009
Awesome Really comfortable and has a lot of space to put your stuff. Best backpack EVER November 3, 2009
great back pack I recently received the Heckler backpack in moonlight ivory and it's great. I use it for school and carrying my laptop everyday. It fits a lot of items but still fits comfortably when I wear it. The side pockets are also nice for water bottles or travel mugs. I'm very happy with the backpack and the site as well. November 3, 2009
Love it! I use this backpack for school and it's so comfortable considering that I carry a lot of stuff and am at school for up to 12 hours a day. It's super comfortable and can carry A LOT of stuff! The smaller pocket in the front also comes in handy! October 31, 2009
Not ideal for a laptop. I bought this backpack for my 15.4" laptop. I have been using other North Face products but I was not impressed on this backpack. There was no fully separated compartment for laptop and I didn't see enough protection comparing to the ones I checked. The fabric was pretty thin and it may be very durable one but it seems to me too think to carry a laptop. I recommend to check the actual backpack before purchasing it. I just examined pictures and descriptions but that didn't provide me with the whole picture of the product. October 19, 2009
Love it! Great comfortable backpack for school and hiking. I love it! October 5, 2009
great love it Great, I loved it. October 2, 2009
Great service, quick delivery, great communication order status We will definitely do business with Altrec again. Site was easy to use and made the ordering a breeze. My daughter loves her new North Face backpack. September 29, 2009
Pretty Awesome It's great. I'm currently in nursing school and need to fit a TON of stuff and the backpack does a good job of fitting it all - I can fit a 3 inch textbook, my laptop, a couple folders, a spiral notebook, a pair of shoes, and a change of clothes. If it were any bigger I'd topple over. It has great support and makes it feel like I'm carrying way less than I am. It looks fab and I love it. September 29, 2009
Review from HND Its the best of gifts I ever received... Thanks abhi... HND September 25, 2009
Great Backpack Well made with sturdy construction--a laptop backpack that promotes good organization through multiple zippered pockets and compartments. September 20, 2009
saratoga green actually looks a lot different I ordered the Saratoga Green color expecting it to look like the one in the image above, but once I got it in the mail it was a completely different color. I was expecting a light olive green, and its actually a dark hunter green. Not like the picture at all. Disappointing that the image doesn't match the product. September 19, 2009
GREAT this backpack is amazing. looks great. September 16, 2009
