Customer Reviews The North Face Isabella

I'm a mom of 4 who's finally headed back to school and when I got my backpack in the mail my high school daughters were so envious!! Ha! It's a great pack, great quality and I'm sure I will get years of use from it.

Sooo comfortable for school and work!

I love this backpack, this is basically my college and day backpack. The material is very good as I tend to be very rough with my backpacks, the only thing I need to look out for is the fabric on the front elastic pocket. It is the exact size I expected it to be so I urge everyone to look at the dimension before buying, I bought this backpack because I know it looked smaller in size and big backpacks overpower the look of me. This backpack is very deep but it is not wide so you can't really fit large binders and wide text books inside but you can shove a few things at the bottom before packing in books to create more room. Theres also some short videos on youtube showing you the features. It also fits more comfortably when you use the chest strap, cause so much less shoulder pain.

What I love about this product is that it is slim and you are able to store quite a bit of stuff in it as well as a decent size laptop.

Most backpacks are too big for me which makes them uncomfortable to wear. I also don't need 20 pockets for college since I mainly use my laptop. For me, this backpack is the perfect size and the black/pink one are also my favorite colors. It's just the right size for everyday classes and hiking. Extremely comfortable and breathable. The straps in the front make hiking easier and secure the backpack. The lined pockets are super nice and great sizes. The design is also very modern and clean looking. As long as they keep making this backpack, I will keep buying it once my current one wears out.

Perfect for school, with so many books for college, this bag can hold and support everything i have!

This backpack is the best quality and it's comfortable!

This is a great backpack. I am a male and was a little taken back by the fact that it was described as a women's backpack but I have to tell you, it fits perfect and I am constantly receiving compliments on it. No one can even tell that it is sold as a women's backpack. The only complaints I have is that the straps that go over your shoulders are a little too slim for my liking but they are still comfortable nonetheless.

I LOVE this back pack. It is cute, stylish not your average backpack. The only downside is it is a little small.

I always have a hard time finding the perfect backpack because I'm really picky. This backpack was everything I wanted and more. I love the simplicity of it, yet it has lots of pockets for all my supplies. I would recommend this backpack to everyone!

This is new style Isabella. The rose gold zip is completely sold out in older version. The one with rose gold zips has the lovely pinky coral lining as well. I wanted these colors but came to find out it was completely sold out, therefore I made this purchase from north face USA to UK. It did cost more due to additional p&p which was privately arranged, but I'm pleased I arranged it as this is exactly what I wanted. The picture does not indicate the color of the inside of the one with gold zips, in my experience it's pink. It's very light, just the right amount of pockets. Not used it yet, but will use it as carry on a flight traveling with toddler. I then intent to use it for work as a teacher. Can also be used for weekends away. Practical use for mothers with small children.

I mainly use it for a small hiking and traveling.It is light and there are enough pockets for my supplies.Also it's designed fancy and urban.So it's also useful when I go to work.

This is probably the best backpack I've ever owned! I'm 5'2 so it's a perfect fit for my short frame, and it holds a good amount of stuff.

I bought this backpack for college. At first I was worried it was going to be too small but it actually holds a lot of stuff in its many compartments. It can hold my 13.3 inch laptop and several notebooks. What I also like about this backpack is that it is really cute and doesn't make a small girl like me look like a turtle with a huge backpack. This is a great backpack for school!

Love it, but it is in the smaller side!

I have had several North Face backpacks and have been very happy with them. However, my backpacks are all large, which means I cram a lot into them and they get heavy. I wanted something smaller and lighter for day trips (think, going to the zoo). This bag is a great size, nice and light, but still has useful compartments/sections. The main drawback is that the pocket on the side, which is where I would typically put a water bottle, is too small to fit a Camelback water bottle (it would fit a soda bottle sized water bottle, just not the wider circumference of a somewhat larger bottle like a Camelback). When selecting this backpack, I made sure to check that it had a side pocket for a water bottle. I take Camelback water bottles everywhere and have never had problems with them fitting in the pockets of other North Face backpacks so this was a little disappointing.

I was looking for a laptop backpack and to carry my lunch and it's perfect. My 13" laptop will fit and I will be handsfree which is what I wanted. Love the pockets.

Use it as a daily backpack, it just about fits my 13in laptop, a water bottle, one book and a container for food. Wish it was just a tad bigger. It looks beautiful and I've got so many compliments this week!

Great, lightweight backpack, Perfect for travel, commuting, etc. Well-designed and very comfortable to wear.

This bag has a generous amount of space and compartments. It's nice and lightweight. I bought it for days I commute and carry my laptop, so I wouldn't have to strain my shoulder. I was surprised how well my laptop fit. I have used it as a carry on and it's aptly held everything I needed. I love the top pocket which is perfect for sticking in my phone and wallet without having to dig around for them. My only cons are that when it is really full, it can be difficult to get things out bc the zippers don't go down as far as I would like. It also does not stand up due to the round bottom, which is okay, but I have had it fall off the top of my suitcase. Still, I'd definitely recommend.

I got this backpack for my girlfriend who loves traveling and is a programmer so needs to carry a laptop. She loves how versatile this backpack is in both regular aswell as outdoor use. Makes for a great gift!

This backpack is attractive and sleek - great for commuters. I love the lined pockets and built in sleeve for a laptop. Only potential downside is the lack of padding in the straps (although it's still pretty comfortable without it). Would buy again!

Not as spacious inside as hoped but super comfortable and great design!

I love the backpack however if you order the TNF black backpack the interior fabric is a grey color, not the brown/gold color depicted

I loved this bag for the most part but I hated that it tips over constantly. I bought it to use as a carry on for international flights to carry my travel blanket, sleep pillow, Kindle, snacks, toiletries pouch, Bose headphones, etc. It did fit all those things comfortably but the darn thing kept falling over! You have to place it a certain way on the chair/floor so it does not tip over. I spent more time picking up this bag off the airport floor than anything. It didn't really fit clothes in compression packing cubes so it is a bit small. I use my Osprey Porter 46 as a weekender backpack which has more space and I still use this on occasion as a inflight bag. Great quality but just poor design in my opinion.
