The North Face Surge 31L Backpack 2026 Review! The Jack of All Trades.

The North Face Surge — the Swiss Army knife of backpacks. 31 litres of pockets, organization, laptop protection, comfort, and enough versatility to handle work, EDC, travel, and whatever other nonsense you decide to throw at it. But is it actually the ultimate do-it-all backpack? Let's find out. Correction: At 1:05, I incorrectly stated that my North Face Surge uses 210D recycled nylon on the bag shown in the video. The bag shown actually uses heathered 300D polyester! Although it is offered in 210D recycled nylon as well on the solid color versions!
