Beautiful but not as functional
No, I do not recommend this product
I bought the Surge to replace my 9-year old Recon backpack. It was pricey, but I was willing to pay more for a new favorite backpack. I am disappointed in the surge. There are some nice qualities, like the fleece lined pocket, the YKK zippers, and the waterproof bottom. However, I couldn’t fit NEARLY the same amount in it that I did in my Recon. I used my recon for traveling, teaching, and going to college. It held up and I am just disappointed in the Surge. I tried to fit the same amount of items in both, and if it can’t even comfortably fit headphones, a wallet, a pair of gloves, a notebook and a travel kit, how is it going to fit all of my teaching manuals, laptop and papers to grade??

Great pack for daytime adventure and travel.
Yes , I recommend this product
This is advertised as a woman’s backpack. I am a 60 year old man and I am happy with my purchase. This is a great pack for daytime adventures and traveling. The amount of space is just right for a full day out. Very well-built and a very good design. This pack will be with me for many years and miles!

I wanted to love this
No, I do not recommend this product
I purchased this backpack in 2019 because I wanted something that would carry all of my tech gear plus some light clothing. I shopped around and tried several backpacks at REI ultimately choosing this one. I haven't been able to use this that often due to COVID but now I have been traveling a bit and every time I use this backpack I experience severe, debilitating, headache, neck and shoulder pain for several days after. I am 5'8 140 lbs would consider myself in decent shape. In the pack I am carrying a 16" laptop, some extra hard drives, headphones, toiletries and a water bottle so in other words, it is not packed to overflowing. And every trip I am basically wearing the pack from the car or subway to the airport gate so maybe 1 hour each way. I am feeling stuck because now I am past the 365 day return window and I have an expensive backpack I will not use again.

New design
No, I do not recommend this product
The new generation of the surge line of North Face backpacks has surprisingly disappointed me. The quality is significantly not as durable as the previous one I owned. The straps are not as robust, and the seems started showing right away with little weight put inside. Doesn't seem like the new design will last as long.As much as I do not want to say, I do not recommend this backpack ...
