In 1966, two hiking enthusiasts founded a small mountaineering retail store in the heart of San Francisco's North Beach. The Company soon became known as The North Face, a retailer of high-performance climbing and backpacking equipment. (The name was selected because in the Northern Hemisphere, the north face of a mountain is generally the coldest, iciest and most formidable to climb.) In 1968, The North Face began designing and manufacturing its own brand of high-performance mountaineering apparel and equipment, and in the early 1980s, extreme skiwear was added to the product offering. By the end of the decade, The North Face became the only supplier in the United States to offer a comprehensive collection of high-performance outerwear, skiwear, sleeping bags, packs and tents.

I'm a flight attendant and I bought the North Face Calyx for my layovers. It packs really flat and doesn't take up any space in my suitcase. It's light in weight unlike many bags that weigh a few pounds before you put anything in it. It holds a lot and looks stylish in a casual way while keeping my hands free while I'm sightseeing or shopping. I would definitely recommend this to anyone going on a vacation and doesn't want to lug your big leather purse with them or someone like me who lives out of a suitcase.

I love my new bag! I just got back from breaking it in on a 2 week New Zealand vacation. The two side water bottle holders are nice and more versatile than I thought (also give quick access to other items like maps). I didn't carry my laptop this trip, but it fits nicely. The organizer section neatly held my passport, phone, ipod, lip gloss, pens, etc. and the outside mesh pocket stashed anything in a hurry! The only tiny thing it is missing (which I can do without) is a key ring. My keys quickly fell to the bottom of the pocket, but maybe I can get a hook and fix that myself? Anyway, it is a great bag!

This bag is cooler than cool. Holds a bunch, and still looking good. I'm in college. This bag really hauls around all my 100 lb books. North Face is a trendy brand name. Nordstrom sells this bag for more than Zappos. You guys/girls are the coolest, nicest, and the friendliest reps that all other stores should copy from. Keep doing what you do Zappos!

At first I thought this bag would be too big, and for everyday use, it is a little. But for travel or if you like to carry a lot of stuff, this is a great bag! I\'ve gotten used to its size now. \r\n\r\nThere are pockets galore and they\'re all easy to get to. I love to be hands free when I travel and this works great. And if you don\'t need to use it around your waist, you can stuff the handles into pockets in the back and it converts to a hand-held bag. It\'s canvas, which I prefer over leather, and is very versatile.

I love this backpack! If you\'re looking to lug around a ton of books, you might want to keep looking, though. It holds my 15 inch Macbook and 2, maybe 3, law books (depending on how big they are). That\'s enough for my purposes, but there are roomier backpacks out there, if that\'s what you\'re looking for (for example, LL Bean). It could also have more padding on the straps and back, but, I think it\'s generally the larger backpacks that have the thicker padding, which makes sense, and it\'s never really compromised my comfort. Also, I\'ve been caught in the rain with this backpack, but my books and computer have stayed dry. Overall, I\'d recommend this backpack--excellent combination of style and functionality!

This bag is another quality product from The North Face. I bought the soy beige color and was delighted to find it exceeds my expectations. It's not too big or small, it's well made with attractive fabric interior, has numerous compartments for just about anything; cellphone, purse, netbook etc. and looks absolutely great! Love it!

Overall Rating:
This is by far the coolest backpack I have ever owned! It looks great (I own the black), very durable and highly water resistant (rain still did get in during a half-hour walk in a downpour; draw your own conclusions), and very comfortable. It looks just like a fusebox, all rectangular and smooth on the outside; hence the name, I guess. It's only true fault may be that it is enormous, but I still use it for school and weekend travel, so it works wonderfully for me. I just love it! And as always, Zappos service is second to none. Wonderful experience all around.

This is a great backpack for college or high school. My daughter took a Recon North Face back pack purchased 5 years ago through high school now in third year of college. Her brother had gone through numerous backpacks and all had to be replaced. This is large enough for books, 3" binders and miscellaneous materials for high school. It also has a padded pocket for my daughters Mac 15" lap top. It is worth the additional money. The quality seems the same from the 2004 model and current one.

Overall Rating:
I don\'t love this bag. Contrary to one review I read, it really is too big for a 5\'4" woman. The pouches are all the wrong size and shape, and there\'s no small internal zipper pouch for a wallet, change, or the various sundries women need to carry around. Everything goes into one of the 3 big pouches and gets lost in the bottom somewhere. I am a grad student and have a lot of books to carry, though, and this bag does have plenty of room, and the shoulder straps (though they are too wide for my frame) are well-padded. If I hadn\'t spent so much on this one I would probably go back to the old Jansport I used in undergrad.

I wanted a lightweight but sturdy duffel bag for traveling 3-5 days at a time. This bag is super light and made of very tough material. The inside pocket folds inside out so you can store the entire duffel in that pocket for compact storage (Love that!). When the bag arrived, I thought it might be too small to carry all my things (about 4 changes of summer clothes + 2 pairs of shoes + toiletries), but it surprisingly held up. The longer strap is not the most comfortable (it's a basic, non-cushioned strap) so if you pack heavy, carrying the duffel like a messenger bag might hurt after a while, but it's not too bad, because it's easy to carry on your shoulders with the shorter handle straps.

This is a spacious backpack with great support/padding for the back and shoulders. It has all the right compartments you'd think you would need/want in a daily carrier. My typical use is daily and I'm carrying some notebooks, clipboard, a book or two, cell, pens, zip drive, calculator, and other minor accessories. I also keep a water bottle in one of the side pockets. I haven't yet made use of the laptop pouch. I like what I have experienced so far and I would definitely make this purchase all over again.

I love the backpack; it is everything I though it would be. Zappos did a great job describing the details about it. I also love that my shipment always seems to come the next day even though I ask for normal free shipping. And if it doesn't work out, I don't have to worry about the return policy. I love Zappos!

Poor design, water bottle holder too small. I was in need of a replacement for my Yavapai bag that was going on 13 years old. I was excited to see this had a good number of pockets. I was extremely disappointed when I unpacked the bag and found the water bottle holders to be so small that I could not put a Nalgene bottle in. This was a make or break detail for me. Other than that, the bag would have been great.

I bought this to replace a bag I have had forever. I bought it as my weekend travel/explore cities purse, and it is going to be perfect. It is a tiny bit smaller than my other bag, but is also more stylish and slimmer. The pockets inside are perfect, and I love the pattern. This bag is going to get a lot of use.

I actually really like this bag. I wasn't sure if I would because the pictures they show; I would prefer more, but it does everything it says. It even folds into a pocket. I use it as a bookbag and I was convinced it would rip and it didn't and the straps are very soft. I would definitely buy a different color. I have the black one.

I love it! It is strong but very lightweight, easily packable in its own pocket. I use it for carry-on airline travel, which accommodates several days of clothing for me (I am small). North Face also makes one that is smaller and equally as nice for many uses. And the colors are great!

Great bag! I absolutely love this bag. There are tons of pockets, including an internal 1 with zipper. It's perfect for your wallet. It's comfortable to wear, it can't get dirty and, unlike leather bags, it's perfect for rain & snow and looks great with athletic wear. Let's face it, this bag looks better with a North Face jacket than most leather bags. All in all, I'm pleased with it & recommend it.

 |  | I just wanted to mention that the service I received Zappos has been incredible. It is a pleasant surprise as a customer to see them bend over backward for me just to replace some shoelaces. I appreciate greatly the effort that your team put forward in getting me in touch with Resole America, and Resole America was quite prompt in their response to me. For both places, the customer is number one. It is for this reason why I am a huge fan of Zappos! Keep up the
great work.
