Backpack is perfect for college. Everything I need fits.

Great bag, super sleek design, and very comfortable to wear to classes.

Great color

Such a versatile and useful bag, truly useful for all applications.

Great product. Would purchase again

I've ordered both the Recon backpack and the Borealis for my sons at college. They prefer the Recon as they are not a fan of the bungee to hold jackets etc. on the Borealis. On the Recon my boys like the laptop compartment, the water bottle side holder and the front zipper compartment to hold earbuds, and other important small items.

Great backpack! It fits everything I need for the day and more!

I got this to use for work due to carting a laptop. Had bag & hands not free. This backpack is awesome! Light weight & fits everything! No more carrying multiple bags!

The bag is a perfect size, lined pockets, great zippers. Overall very cool looking and I love it!

I bought this backpack for my son who is in college he loved it can't go wrong with north face !!

Pockets galore, many containing that felt sort of feel for storing electronics. A lot of straps, good for any sort of trip. Zippers are smooth, overall feel of the backpack is solid.

This book bag is totally waterproof! It is comforting to know that I don't have to carry an umbrella to keep my books dry!

I use this everyday. I'm able to fit my bouldering gym gear, laptop and other school stuff, and my bike helmet secures to the loops. The stretchy stuff sack on the front is my favorite part. I keep my chalk bag, tape, and hat in there.

Love how it feels and the comfort it provides via strap padding.

Perfect!! Well constructed. We purchased this book bag for my middle schooler and it has been a great fit for what he needs throughout the week. The water bottle pockets are large in size. The laptop zipper pocket is very firm so no worries about it getting damaged.

My daughter had the Jester backpack for school last year. She found it wasn't big enough for textbooks, laptop, all the things. We went with the Recon this year and is much happier. It is nice having a separate zipper area for the laptop to keep it away from the heavy textbooks. The additional space makes it easier to get things in and out.

My daughter loves it, she use it daily for school, shes love in it, exterior and interior of the backpack...

Purchased for my son for the upcoming school year. He loves the color and durability of this backpack.

I'm using this backpack for school, I like how comfortable the straps are, specially with all the heavy books I have inside. It has various pockets and straps that can be adjusted. I would definitely recommend this product.

Perfect size for high school. Lots of compartments to keep things organized
