Customer Reviews The North Face Recon

Great backpack! Love the added color detail around the zippers - makes a plain black backpack standout from the crowd. Nice feature to have the laptop sleeve in a zipper of it's own, added protection and organization. Comfortable shoulder straps and a nice roomy interior.

Great backpack overall. Lightweight and very comfortable. Only surprised was one of the pockets is a half pocket and didn't go down to the bottom of the backpack.

Overall, this backpack is great! It is large and deep enough to hold all the things I need. There is an entire protected compartment just for my laptop, so I no longer need a laptop case, which has lightened the load even more. The two deep pockets on either side is good for hold my umbrella and water bottle. The only problem I have experienced so far is that the book bag can not hold itself upright, so I have to lean it on other chairs or table legs. However, I do believe that this is protect the bottom of the bag , so that you labtop isn't making a direct hit with the ground, which for me is worth it because I have to take my computer to class all the time. Overall, it's a great durable book bag for school and would definitely recommend because from the experiences of others, they have kept theres for several years.

The backpack was very comfortable on my back and I'm not worried about my laptop breaking. There's just enough room for notebooks, folders, and pencil cases, but not enough for a textbook. The backpack came with a different color strap than shown on the website. I love the compartments and the durability that came with the backpack. I can definitely expect it to last me for the upcoming years.

It great it fits what I need for school

I use this product for high school. I love all of the pockets and all of the compartments. I dislike how you can't fit to many binders.

This is my son's 2nd North Face backpack for school. It's roomy enough to hold his books and his chromebook, in addition to the smaller pockets and compartments for a water bottle, id card, phone, etc... He's already said that it's lightweight and feels comfortable (fully loaded) on.

I use this product for high school. Love it!

This backpack is really good, with enough space for all of my travel needs, including my school accessories and even whatever I might need for work. I work for Younglife so I do quite a good bit of traveling to camp and whatnot, and this backpack has kept up well.

I got this for college because I have to do alot of walking so I need something really sturdy to carry my books and laptop in. The back supports make carrying a heavy load more comfortable and the variety of pockets fits everything I need. Love it!

Just got it and start school in a week. I have had a Borealis backpack the last two years and loved it!

This backpack is great for school it has the right amount of pockets for water bottles,pencils,books,computers and binders and notebooks.I got this backpack for high school (I'm a freshman) and I plan on using it all four years I'm there and I definitely think this will still be in good condition by the time I'm a senior. The back is padded so it's great with so many textbooks notebooks and binders on your when going from class to class. Friends have recommend this product to me and I definitely made the right decision purchasing it.

We bought this backpack for our high school freshman to use to tote books to and from classes. As she will live out of this backpack, we liked the separate compartment for her computer, and the outside pocket to catch odds and ends. She especially liked the color.

My daughter loves the backpack. Has lots of storage room for all her stuff for school, and a small laptop.

I can't wait to start using my beautiful backpack! I loved it!

I bought it for my boyfriend he needed a back pack a good one since he's starting the police academy. All in one backpack
