"I just wanted to say that this has been the best bag I have ever had. It handles my 15" Powerbook laptop with ease, has plenty of pockets for the little things I'm always carrying around, and stands up to a lot of abuse. I've had the pack for more than a year now, and unlike other bags, the straps have held up and stayed attached to the body of the bag. This was not true of my last two bags; they lasted less than 6 months before the straps started to tear. I've been able to take my bag on hikes, on plane flights, bike riding, in the car, and on the metro for weekend trips. Thanks for all your thought in making this bag; it was worth every penny!"
JB, Zoom Owner

"The Zoom backpack is fantastic. My PowerBook fits perfectly, and there's room for my phone, accessories, wallet and magazines. Great design and extremely comfortable!"
LP, Zoom owner

"I love it! it is absolutely great and worth every penny."
NH, Zoom owner

"I am the proud owner of a Zoom pack and I have to say, it's one of the most well-made, coolest packs I've had. I just want to compliment you all on a fine, affordable, quality product. Every time I take my computer out of the bag, I praise your name. Thanks Spire!"
LG, Zoom owner

"This is the perfect laptop backpack. It's got all the space you need and easily replaces my old bag. Well done, Spire! You've got an industry leader here at a very reasonable price!"
GK, Zoom owner

"This pack is great! I can slog through airport terminals without feeling like I'm hauling a load of bricks. The bag itself is a serious backpack - the chest strap make a big difference and the waist strap lets me run for the train/airplane without the laptop jumping around and bruising my back!"
JJD, Zoom owner

"I received the bag last week and am extremely satisfied with it. Amazing design, very comfortable."
OM, Zoom owner

"I have to say I am very impressed with the Zoom, it is extremely well made with quality materials. The construction seems like it will be able to withstand years of use, and still protect your investment. The seams appear to be very strong and sturdy enough to last quite a while, they have no 'give' to them if you try and pull them apart, very well done. The quality of the Zoom is amazing and the price is right on par with the quality you receive. The old saying "You get what you pay for" really applies here, you are getting a top quality bag for the price. I believe the Spire Zoom will last through quite a while even through rough use, and through many laptop upgrades to come."
- ThinkComputers.org

"I've carried many laptop computers in many different cases and Spire's Zoom backpack is my new favorite. It's solid construction and thoughtful design stand out in a field crowded with generic-looking rectangular black bags that do little to protect your computer against theft or damage, and its reasonable price is icing on the cake. If you have a laptop and can use a backpack, Spire's Zoom is for you."

"The qualities of the Spire Zoom mirror that of the Macintosh itself. It costs more, but it'll do the job day after day with few problems and a touch of style."

[faq]If you have a question that isn't listed here, please e-mail us!

Q. Will my laptop fit in the Zoom?
A. To answer this question, you need to know the correct Boot size for your laptop (see below).

Q. What is a Boot and why do I need it?
A. The Boot is a padded, removable sleeve that secures your laptop inside the pack. It is essential for full laptop protection and is available in 8 different sizes.

Q. How do I know which Boot size will fit my laptop?
A. Check the specs on the Boot page or (even better) use our awesome bag finder.

Q. I already have a Boot, or don't need one. Can I purchase the Zoom without it?
A. Yes, after you click the 'Buy' button, skip the step where it asks for the Boot size. The price of the pack without the Boot is $90.00.

Q. I clicked on the 'Buy' button but nothing happened. What's up?
A. You must select a color first.

Q. Do you have any other colors?
A. No, but we'll be happy to hear about any color suggestions you have!

Q. What is the difference between the Zoom and the Fuse?
A. The Fuse is deeper, which enables it to carry more books and other large items. The Fuse also has a sternum (chest) strap for more comfort. For a detailed comparison, go to our Compare Packs page.

Q. What makes the Zoom worth $120.00? I've seen packs for less.
A. Bottom line: ours are better. More comfortable, better designed, and longer lasting. Also, the price includes the padded Boot sleeve, which retails for $30.00 by itself. Read more about what makes Spire products special.
