Customer Reviews The North Face Recon

I bought this backpack for my first year of high school. Was still using it when I graduated college this past year. After, I took it to Europe. Got there, around, and back & I know I'll be able to use it for whatever comes next. Has wear, but nothing on it has ever broken. Not the straps, the bottom, or any of the zippers. Really a fantastic bag, even after 9 years!

My daughter is using this bag for school, carrying a lot of books plus a Chromebook. So far is doing a great job and has a great look.

I love this backpack! I use it in college, while traveling, and for anything else! It is big and roomy enough to fit everything I could need, while at the same time being really cute.

I brought this book bag for my daughter, and when she received it she was super excited, because she could get all her books and computer into it, and it wasn't bulky or heavy!!! She absolutely loves it!!

Fantastic balance between comfort and size

This is the second Recon backpack I've had. I could have kept my previous one forever, but it was a little small for my taste. This new version is more true to size, and I like how the front bag is higher up so it is easier to access my supplies like pens and headphones. The side pockets also have the expandable mesh material that can hold almost any bottle shape.

I use this backpack for the nursing program. It has great room and fits all my needs! Has great space and Keeps all my school work and personal belongings separate. Even has pockets for a couple of snacks for the days I am to busy to be able to stop! It is by far the most comfortable backpack I have ever purchased!

My granddaughter is very happy with this gift. She loves North Face product. I cannot compliment enough North Face's customer service department, who quickly corrected a mistaken delivery so that I could deliver the backpack on my granddaughter's birthday. Thank you, North Dace.

This is a great backpack for school! My daughter is going into high school this year and i'm fully confident that it will last her all of high school and college. I love the life time warenty and i definitely feel like i'm getting my money's worth! Her favorite thing in the backpack is the built in pencil case! She loves how organized and easy to reach it makes her school supplies. The furry first pocket makes me sure that her phone is safe in her backpack all day at school! AMAZING BACKPACK!!!

I gave this to my granddaughter for her birthday. She loves it! It will be used as a backpack for school as well as for traveling with her softball team.

Perfect for my on the go, involved in everything, working teen.

I got this backpack because I've heard rave reviews about the north face ever since I have,love there backpacks. Especially there recon all they colors are different and fit anyones personality.

I use the backpack for school. I can fit all 6 of my binders in the bag (they are one inch binders). Has a computer slot that looks really protective. Has two smaller zipper sections that are perfect for smaller supplies. It's an overall nice bag, and a lot of other students also have it too!

I use this backpack for work. I love everything about it! So many pockets and love the designs. It has a pocket for everything and is super comfortable!

My primary uses for the Recon backpack will be for personal and professional travel. Its compact design allows for easy carry-on when flying, but is still roomy enough for a laptop computer and multiple personal items. The quality, as always with North Face, is excellent, and the pack is stylish and sporty, as well.

I love how it has a ghost like camo to it it's really cool in the light. I would buy this bookbag every time I needed a new one

Perfect for school and travel! Fits the 15" MacBook Pro comfortably.

This was great! Roomy enough to hold several notebooks, a planner, a laptop, and a large pencil bag! Very spacious and super cute!

Bought for first year of high school. Looking forward to a lot of good use.

Purchased for my granddaughter who is a 7th grader. Very stylish and roomy enough for all her books.

Love the Recon backpack. Great for college students. I did not care for the light blue accents on this bag. They looked white.

I used it for school, and it was great.
