Customer Reviews The North Face Women's Jester

Great backpack for walking around a large campus. Love all the different colors and padding on it. Pretty reasonable price also compared to some others.

Spacious, great for both school and hiking, lightweight. A purchase I am glad to have made!

Very nice backpack, a littler smaller than I expected but still very good. Straps are sturdy and there plent of room in the pockets.

This backpack was perfect for me! It is a great size and can hold a lot while still being smaller than a big chunky backpack.

Spacious, solid fabric, good colors! Kids love it.

I hope it lasts a long time. I really like it.

In terms of the backpack, this was my 2nd TNF backpack because my husband is "borrowing" my old one. My old one held up a rough 4 years from lugging around my macbook, numerous books and work clothes during university. What I liked about the backpack was it never looked bulky even when it was stuffed to the gills. I love the colors (grey and surf green) of my new backpack. Lots of random storage compartments and features that will appeal to my various needs/intentions of using this backpack. The one thing that feels weird to me is no matter how I adjust all the straps, it feels like the backpack sits high up on my back. Perhaps its my body proportions, not sure. I didn't put anything in the backpack either when I was examining the fit in the mirror, so maybe with added weight, it won't sit weirdly on me. Either way, small nuisance. Otherwise, I am looking forward to taking my backpack around outside, on trips, and work things that require me to bring a lot of things :)

So far, I love it! I ordered it for my college books and etc. It fits mostly all of my stuff without it hurting my back. It's very sturdy also! Once again, I love it!

The bag is very roomy and plenty of room for a laptop, my oldest daughter is using it for college. She has only been using it for short time but appears to be very durable. We will purchase another one.

It's great for school and camping purposes. I go to school in the middle of the Red Tree Forrest so, it's a harsh terrain at times and, it's easy to get to point A to point B with this back.

I love this bag, at first I thought the pockets were too small so I was apprehensive to put things into them in fear they wouldn't fit but they do expand fairly well

love the colors

This bag is super comfortable to wear, however it was much smaller than I expected in terms of how much stuff can actually fit in it. I still can fit a decent amount of notebooks and my laptop, and I love the organization of it.

The backpack is a lot smaller than what I imagined, but the design is so sleek and simple. I have yet to use it but I am excited to start using it!

As another reviewer mentioned, the accessories organizer is sewn in the main compartment for my backpack too. I don't know if this is a defect or if it's an intentional change to the design, but this is not does not match the photos shown. Also, the water bottle pocket isn't quite deep or tight enough for my water bottle and there is no side strap to strap it in place like there is in most backpacks. Besides these two things, it has everything I would expect and like in a North Face backpack.

Overall love the backpack and quality, however, the organizers are now in the main compartment. I too thought they were mistakenly sewn the wrong way and so I contacted costumer service and they claimed that the new Jesters are now designed that way. A bit misleading, if you ask me, and I personally think having the organizers in the main compartment takes away from its maximum capacity and makes the backpack bulkier than it needs to be.

My step daughter loved the bag soooo much It bought be in as a sincere loving part of the family THANK YOU NORTH FACE !!!!

This is a great versatile backpack. I have been looking for something for a while that isn't too bulky, but also is spacious. I have used this already as a carry-on, beach pack, and biking pack. The hip strap is excellent for more support. When I wore a tank all day, it rubbed a little on my shoulders, but I suspect that would happen with anything. So satisfied with my purchase!

I love my new Jester backpack! I got in in blue. I think the colors look great! I feel like it will definitely last me while I'm in college.

Great backpack, but my organizational panel faces the main compartment instead of being able to access it from opening the secondary compartment. Thought it was a fluke and took it into the North Face store. All the new models had the organizational panels sewn in the wrong direction. Did someone drop the ball at Quality Control?

Overall a fabulous quality backpack, but with the new re-design, I think there was a quality control flaw during production. The accessories organizer in the secondary compartment is sewn in so that it faces the interior of the main compartment, not the secondary compartment, like it is shown in the photo. I thought my backpack was a mistake, so I took it into the North Face store to exchange. To my surprise, every women's Jester we went through had the organizer sewn in facing the wrong direction. Salesperson thought it was supposed to be this way until I showed him the stock photo.

Very study and spacious.

Very nice backpack but did not have dedicated laptop sleeve. Upgraded to the Recon.

It is exactly like the picture!! It is so unique, and I love love love the purple accents. The only thing that is really disappointing for me were the shoulder straps. I carry a lot of things, i.e.: laptop, textbooks, etc. , and the straps are not comfy enough to support the heaviness of my backpack. Otherwise, the perfect backpack and the colors are awesome!

This backpack is great! It's perfect for all of my needs from school to work to outdoor adventures. I could not be more happy about this purchase, I love it!
