Review on 🎒 Stylish and Durable: North Face Surge Heather Black Backpacks for the Urban Explorer by Sandra Johnson

What I love most about this bag (and North Side in general) is its durable quality and bold/reliable looks. The materials feel much more durable and comfortable than the light and scratchy Osprey material. However, in my opinion, the north side should never have changed the front admin/org panel. In the past, this bag reached all the way down and offered a lot of space. However, that plate now ends up halfway to the front of the bag, at least in Surge and Recon, resulting in a lack of space. There are two easy-access pockets on the front underside that used to reach the admin panel, but they make the pocket bulge when filled with gear, creating an odd-looking barrel-shaped belly. I would recommend TNF bringing back a full size admin panel - that would be the perfect bag.
