North Face Surge (2021) Review

Review of the updated version of the North Face Surge backpack which offers great laptop protection and tons of pockets. It’s a little bigger than what I normally like for EDC, but a solid all purpose bag.

Pros:

• Well-padded and suspended laptop sleeve
• Impressive amount of space
• Lots of organizational options that work well together
• Solid build quality for the price point

Cons:

• Shoulder straps feel thin for the size of the bag
• Might feel a little big for EDC
