Customer Reviews The North Face Router

Large with great pockets and zippers

Great backpack for every use. The size is perfect, materials are perfect too.

Great bag for a daily commute. With a 40L capacity, it can even be used as a personal item with a lot of space to carry stuff. I have used it as a personal item while flying carrying all my clothes and travel requirements for 2-3 days trips without any issues.

Our high school grad was really excited to receive this as a gift. Especially because it's waterproof or water resistant. Wish it came in more colors.

Best Travel Backpack Ever! I have my router from 2012 and it's still chugging along. I got this one because it's 10L larger. I do waaaay too much research on backpacks and still end up coming back to Nortface because no one compares to the comfort, versatility, and durability.

This backpack is awesome. I bought it in navy and black for each of my teenage boys to carry their heavy notebooks and gear for school. It holds up to a lot of weight and is extremely well made. We like to put a carabiner on the small strap under the logo to attach a bulky lunchbox. This backpack is a winner!

I had an older model of the Router, and I really liked it. Broke after ages, couldn't be repaired. Got a gift card for this one, which disappointed. 1. Says it's the same size as the old Router, but my typical loadout just does not fit as well. Dimensions vs volume also don't really match up. 2. Pocket design is, uh, bad. The front pocket opens all the way up/on 3 sides, meaning when I try to open it only partway it'll sometimes just fling itself open, flinging all my stuff with it. The fleece lined pocket is kind of silly, since it goes upwards? so if you open the pocket your stuff will just come out of it. I like the organizer pocket though. 3. no more hanging loop on the back :( however there are some improvements: 1. grab handles! good! 2. more compression straps! good! 3. improved laptop sleeve! good! 4. improved organizational pocket! good! however the bag just feeling smaller plus 2/3 pockets being not useful for me makes this a return I think ;(

I like the space in the bag. I will be using it for travel mostly.

I was looking for a backpack that would protect my work laptop and be good for transporting it for my remote job. I also needed a backpack that is good for traveling to store extra clothes. It works perfectly for both!

It's spacious.

Everyday carry for work. Lots of room and pockets for all my belongings. Hoping it'll last me 12+ years like my last backpack.

The bag is awesome. It's super roomy, and looks amazing. More than that North Face customer service was awesome. I had a North Face bag that the zipper broke on. I sent it back to them and within a week had gotten a store credit for the value of the backpack. This is why I deal with North Face. Outstanding quality and outstanding customer care is the recipe for me to be a customer for life. Thanks Guys!

Was looking for a large backpack with good space and this was it!

I bought this for my 18-year old grandson for Christmas so he has it when he leaves for college. I chose the Router model after an online chat with your rep. I'm sure it will be just right for him.

I really like this backpack. I use it every day for college and for the occasional day trip or two. I really like all the storage space and all of the pockets. I really liked the fleece-lined computer pockets.

Awesome bag!!

Many deep pockets and comfortable
