The North Face Surge vs Osprey Tropos: Battle of the 30L+ Backpacks! Best Travel / EDC/Outdoors Bag! 

yup, love osprey!!!!!

yepp, I have the 2022 Osprey Tropos, that I bought after your review then. I hunted one of the last ones down available online in late 2022 and havent found a better backpack since then. The organizational department would be my main critique but I carry a Osprey Ultralight Roll around which works great in combination and solves this problem for me😊 Thanks again for your great reviews then and now!

i actually made a video about the parsec vs tropos. the parsec is actually 26L! here is the video: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-AJlYAuzQxw4.html

if i get my hands on a nebula, ill do one =)

​@@DesmondChengthe New Nebula is a cheap version of the old one. I bought mine almost a year ago and I'm very disappointed with it. No airscape, just a cheap sitpad instead. Ultra weird position of the handle. Shoulder straps are fixed. Bulky and unconfortable when fully loaded. It seems to be a product made by an obscur brand who stole the Osprey design. As the new tropos, very thin material on the top and compressions straps Linked to the front mesh pocket. Thé only ''upgrade'' is the double zip on the front. Sorry for my english, I'm french. Hope Osprey will listen to this. Thanks for your videos anyway.

its roughly the same but i find the tropos a smidge bigger!

i love the kickstand!

Yes I have! Mystery Ranch might have a better strap, but the back panel is unrivaled from Osprey

the shorter water bottle pockets are from the pre-production models!

absolutely, i took it on my trip to mexico. It wont fit under the seat, but overhead is totaly fine =)

i like the airspeed back panel and the kick stand, so im not interested in the nebula at this time!

​@@DesmondChengyou're right. Don't waste your money.
