    • North Face makes great products and this bag is another one. Few things to consider....
Size: One Size Color: Tnf Black/Tnf Black-npf
It is a great bag and has the most comfortable harness and strap system for shoulders, neck, and back out of 7 different top rated backpacks i tried. The bag is well made and has a good amount of organization small and large pockets as well as solid protection for a laptop. Few things to consider....North Face, here are a few changes I'd like to see... 1. YOU HAVE TO ADD A LUGGAGE PASS THROUGH 2. Wish the front pockets were a darker grey inside, they are too light and I could see them maybe looking dirty over time. 3. My old Surge which I loved for 8 yrs around the world had a place to stash the waist straps so they are out of sight and out of the way if not using. Why does this new model not have that??? 4. Would be cool if you had one or 2 little secret zip stash pockets somewhere 5. Hard to explain, but front looks a little sloppy compared to some other bags I've seen so if you can somehow tweak that and also make the logo way smaller, more incognito would be good. Overall, it really is a solid, lightweight bag and more comfortable to carry than anything else I tried. With those changes this thing would be PERFECT as my every day carry and bag i bring on plane while traveling, hiking, exploring, etc. For reference, I'm a 20+ yr world traveler and every NF product I've purchased has been extremely reliable over the years. ... show more
