Customer Reviews The North Face Recon

Holds its shape after much use. Fits nicely under aircraft seat and is easily retrieved. A backpack office that holds everything that I need to conduct daily activities.

Daily use backpack

I used this for school, and it lasted me a good 3 years. It's still function-able and in good shape, it's just time for a new color. Evenly distributes weight, and so so spacious. Highly recommend.

High school backpack

Perfect for all activities.

Both my children have used NF back packs through all there school years, they are so well made and stylish that they actually carried my children through more than one school year. Sorry, didn't need to buy one every year. My daughter specifically asked for one for her college, because of the pockets, water bottle holder, gym shoes and waterproof for her electronics. And with Minnesota winters, similar to Siberia, these backpacks withstand snow, freezing, temps. Being dropped, thrown, and everything else my kids did to these backpacks.

Perfect for college!! Holds laptop and waterproof for those rainy day walks to class.

Looking high and low for a reliable replacement for my tattered decade-old backpack, I came across this pack. First trip report: excellent. Slim and lightweight, but high capacity. I'm fairly confident this will be my travel companion to carry me through the 20's.

Awesome backpack would recommend

I will be using this backpack to get me through graduate school to be my masters for Speech pathology!

It does make a difference that this is designed for women

Great product with lots of room. Color just as shown on the website.

I was looking for a light hiking backpack that I could also use for the office and this backpack is wonderful! Plenty of pockets with great room.

Not bulky during small hauls, looks and feels great. When you start to fill it up ... "Mind Blown" at the capacity of this thing and still looks and feels great. Remains solid on back even with a full load of heavy tools or big laptop on board. From gym clothes to drills and batteries perfect all around pack!

Love this backpack, just the right size without being too big or heavy or having too many specialized pockets!

Just bought this backpack for school and the quality is great. It fits a lot of binders, and the laptop sleeve is very convenient. Great design for students with lots of pockets and compartments. The shipping was very quick and came right on time.

Bought for my 13 year old to use for the new School year, roomy and durable.

This backpack is awesome! Seems very durable

Absolutely love this back pack. My husband has one and my oldest daughter has had hers for 2 and a half years and it still looks brand new.

I love this product. It is such a nice backpack. It is very lightweight, and it doesn't directly contact my back - keeping the amount of sweat down. Would definitely rebuy this.

I like the fact that there are many pockets and the pockets are big enough I can fit my books in there.

Best backpack I've ever had. I had one before that lasted 5 years and counting but wanted a new one. This is perfect. Also the colors are awesome. It fits everything I've ever needed to put in a backpack. Love it.

LOVE the new design compared to the old Borealis. Such an improvement for college students, especially!

Every 5 years I seem to buy a new bag and they keep getting better and better. Thankful for such a great product.
