Can this hold a 1000 page textbook, notepad, and laptop along with some minor accessories? Any comparison to the Solo Urban backpack?

It's a great backpack, sturdy, good-looking and with plenty of room for textbook/laptop, etc.

This back pack is smaller than most, but in my opinion it would hold what you're describing just fine. The back compartment is padded and made especially for a lap top. The compartment on the inside is plenty large enough for a 1000 page text book and a notebook, but probably not much more. There is one more small compartment for pens and other accessories. It's a really nice back pack.

Yes it should hold textbooks and notebooks in addition to your computer. I actually cut out the black inner lining that separated the two zippered compartments. This allows me to fit my purse (it's a large purse) , computer (15 inch), a thick spiral notebook, papers for work and high heels all at he same time. I take the train to work, roll it all over and to the bottom/wheels are sturdy enough to handle all of the weight without dragging! This is by far the best investment I have made this year!

Most of that will fit. There is plenty of room for the MacBook, iPad, and notebooks and smaller books. This is a rather slimline backpack and won't carry a ton of items. I do love it for my purposes, but I am not carrying books, only the iPad, MacBook and a few smaller items like notebooks. I hope this helps.

It can hold most textbooks and binders that I've used it with. In terms of how much, I never put too much but it can fit about 4 inches thick worth of books/binders/notepads. I don't advise doing so but that seems to be the spacial capacity. So while technically yes, very little. I advise using this bag for light loads, such as reading books + notebooks while avoiding binders and textbooks that are naturally just large/heavy.

Yes, I carry a laptop and a portfolio in one section of mine and that leaves the other completely free for charger, pens and other miscellaneous items. Between the laptop and the portfolio it is nearly 4" and it has room to spare including the entire front portion which can carry another book or two.

Definitely. It fits my calc book study guide and solution manual with room for a chemistry book(~5lbs) notebooks and laptop. There isn't a securing strap for the laptop sleeve though, so you may want to use a sleeve for your laptop.

It probably will hold them, but then nothing else will fit. In my experience it has good capacity for student life and city conditions and its with out a doubt the best laptop carrier I ever owned, good padding to protect your computer and good space for books and other random stuff.

No worries. You will be very happy with this bag. The only bag I have that I like more is a pelican backpack because it incorporates a hard shell for laptops. Worth taking a look at.

It would definately work for the items you listed as it is large and can hold quite a bit. My son is in high school and uses it for all of his books as it is strong and sturdy. He is also a travel baseball player and if you are looking for a good backpack for your son's equipment I would recommend the Boombah one. He has been playing travelball for 5 years and the Boombah is the best one he has had and he has been using it for the last year. Great quality!

Only if you are carrying a light load. It will fill up quickly with books/binders. You might get three fullsize textbooks in the main compartment. I carry my laptop, file folders, and a notepad in the main compartment and use the outer smaller compartments for smaller electronics pens etc. If you are not a "pack rat" than this bag could work nicely for school. I would also like to point out that from all the reviews I have read about Red Rock, if you don't like it you can return it. I know Amazon has a great return policy, even if the reason is you just don't like it.

I use this bag for college as well. I bought the medium and it fits one giant textbook and my small binder perfectly. There's also room for my planner, small makeup bag. The notebooks will fit good and one textbook. The medium is spacious and recommend it, but if you want to carry ALL your textbooks then checkout the large one and compare sizes :)

Yes, it will hold a textbook or two if they are slim in addition to a 17" laptop.

Note sure how many books you have. It can certainly handle at least a 15" laptop and a few more books easily. I actually returned it because it was too large for my needs. Sorry about the delay in responding.

I got the backpack for my brother to carry his Dell Inspiron (which is a 15.6"). It should hold whatever you need.

Yes. I used it with a large-ish 15.4" laptop happily, and I certainly could have loaded in an ipad and a large pile of other things along with it, though usually I had big books instead. It isn't terribly well-padded - I would not be inclined to put electronics in it that weren't in cases. But in terms of sheer quantity, there probably isn't a messenger-type bag that holds more.

I can carry my 17.3" laptop and about 5 folders, my ipad in the front pocket and I can jam in my 7" x 9" x 1.5 day planner, business cards and pens too, not much else though. I honestly can't tell you if you will be able to carry all the stuff you listed, it could be "iffy". There is a zipper at the top.

I think it could handle the iPad Air, MacBook Pro 13, and a couple of notebooks. The addition of the books may be a little tight.
