STM Impulse Backpack Review

By George Harding

For those who need to carry stuff around and prefer to do it on their back, a STM backpack is a really great choice.

As you check it out, you get a feeling that this article will last a long time. It’s made of heavy-duty material and has lots of spaces of various kinds for your stuff.

Looking at the outside front, there is a quick access pocket at the bottom where you can put some small items that you need to be able to get at quickly. Above there is a zippered section inside of which is space for papers, magazines, pens and pencils. There’s also a strap and a zippered pocket for whatever.

There is a pocket on each side of the pack for water bottles or other similar.

At the top of the pack is a large zippered storage space for documents and more, as well as a pocket for magazines.

The main compartment has space for a tablet, felt-lined, and a larger space for your laptop, also felt-lined. The laptop can be up to 15 inches and the tablet can be as large as an iPad.

The back of the pack has the usual straps (cushioned), cushioned shoulder pads with an air channel between, a sternum strap that keeps the straps in place (adjustable, of course), and a quick-carry handle at the top.

An interesting feature that I’ve never seen before is a horizontal strap in back attached over the back pads, whose purpose is to enable mounting the pack on the handle of your rolling suitcase to make transport easier.

In one of the many pockets is a registration card, as is customary. This registration also include the availability of returning your backpack if you misplace or lose it. There is a small metal tag to be attached to the pack which allows the finder to notify STM, who will provide funds to the finder, so he/she can return the backpack to you

One last feature – there’s a bit of reflective tape on the front of the pack to make you and it more visible.

This is a really nice, durable backpack with lots of storage, not only for your laptop and tablet, but for all the other stuff you want to have with you.
