Customer Reviews The North Face Recon

I love North face backpacks!!! When it comes to buying a stylish yet durable backpack to get me through the year, it's rhe only brand I buy!! I would say the only issue with this backpack is it looks more spacious than it is... but it's still spacious and a small flaw so overall I love it!

Daughter loved the with/gray/coral one for high school

Bought this for my son to use in school. These are the best backpacks out there - highly recommend!!!

I love everything about this backpack. It has a roomy section for my computer. Then a front section to hold my other stuff. The water bottle holder on the outside is big enough to fit my reusable water bottle. It has other pockets to hold some of my smaller items. It's not to heavy empty. Cushioned shoulder straps makes it more comfortable for me when my backpack gets heavy.

My son will use this backpack for high school. He loves everything about it. The only thing he didn't like was that it was two tone which we didn't notice in the picture. This is something he can live with considering the backpack has all the other features he was looking for.

Such a great color and comfortable bag. Perfect for school / work. This is my second north face bag and I refuse to purchase from any other brand!

Yes, it has a lower section that falls under the computer section. For travel I like it because there are some items that I don't need fast access to so and they can be in this lower "pocket".

We've only had this a short time but so far it's great.

My daughter loves her new backpack. She loves all the little pockets to put her different stuff for school.

iPad sleeve was a bit too small and not padded. My screen broke the first week. I love the support and breathability of the back. Zippers are high quality. Lots of space and pockets.

Recon backpack is incredibly comfortable and roomy. Feels really well put together and looks are a plus as well. I use it daily for work in place of a briefcase and works really well. Has plenty of room for laptop, folders and other supplies the pockets are well thought out and design is great.

This backpack is the perfect for my day to day life in school, work and for the outdoors. This bag is light and comfortable, I can fit my books and laptop securely for school, I feel comfortable skiing with it full of medical supplies as a ski patroller, and the material is very durable.

Perfect for my freshman and her first year using chrome books! They have a compartment that is softened just for such items, and is super cute and trendy too!

MY DAUGHTER PICKED THIS OUT FOR SCHOOL AND LOVES IT. THERE IS PLENTY OF ROOM FOR BOOKS, LAPTOP COMPUTER ETC. AND A WATER BOTTLE. SHE ALSO SAYS IT IS VERY COMFORTABLE TO CARRY DUE TO THE STRAPS

My son loves this backpack. Great for school.

We have being buying north face back packs for a while. We don't even look some elsewhere. This is the best!

Have purchased three of these backpacks; one for each of my daughters. They used them for all four years of their high school career and loved them!

I use this book bag every single day. It's great for holding a lot of books or even not that many! The first book bag I've found that didnt cause me back problems. I would give it 10 stars if I could!!!

A lot of space in the pockets, lots of pockets, and you would think that carrying all my books it would feel heavy but it doesn't. The back part of the backpack is a hard plate but it gives my back support considering the amount of stuff I carry. Space for my Mac laptop is perfect. Thank You North Face!

I bought this item for my daughter for her senior year. She absolutely loves it from color to durability is well worth it. It is large enough to store what she needs to carry without extra weight. It made her happy which makes me happy.

Perfect for a high school student.

I have used North Face backpacks for years in school. They last a very long time (my previous one made it through four years of daily use) and are very stylish. Additionally, they are very comfortable and can carry a large load without causing me any back pain.

Durable. Seperate pocket for laptop. Very comfortable to wear. Lots of storage. I would surely buy and recommend this again and again. With a fast delivery as well.

High school is complicated....you want to look cool without trying to hard and you want to be organized without looking nerdy! This backpack accomplishes all that while being safe for your back and comfortable. The colors are stylish and not trendy. I bet it will be used all the way to college!

I'm using this product for graduate school. The computer compartment fits perfect. I would recommend and purchase again. My only recommendation for style change is the front zipper for compartment was deeper.
