Customer Reviews The North Face Recon

I use this product for school, I'm able to carry all my books and supplies and still have room left over. It's very comfortable especially because of the sternum and hip straps. I really like like this bag especially compared to my previous one that just ripped out of nowhere.

Great backpack. Very durable and spacious. A good backpack for college.

I purchased this backpack for my boyfriend. It was a surprise cause he was starting school and it came just on time. I liked it so much I bought one for myself !

This is a great backpack! I would definitely recommend to a friend! I like the look and style of the bag. It's light weight and extremely durable. I use the bag for high school. One thing that's a little disappointing is the size of the largest compartment. It fits about 2 binders and 1 text book. However, it's great for heavy load. The bag distributes the weight perfectly and makes the load a lot lighter. Lots of storage for electronics, pencils and pens, water bottles and jackets. Great buy.

Great school back pack

I am a college student who needed a cute, durable, roomy backpack with great support. This backpack is perfect for going to classes, carrying on to planes and everything in between. Enough room for laptop and multiple books. Would highly recommend to any college student.

Going into freshmen year of high school I feels confident enough to say that I have choosen the perfect backpack for tackling all the books high school throws at you. Not only is the North Face Recon Backpack great for school... This back pack would be perfect for day trips or even casual use. The North Face Recon Backpack is the best, universal, professional yet stylish backpack around.

Perfect for students!

I am a student and this is the best one I have ever had

I bought this for school, and it fits three textbooks and 4 binders. It is also perfect for my laptop and tablet. For my hiking trips it for water bottles, clothes, and a camelbak water sac. I love this pack!!

It is extremely comfortable! I love it. It holds all my books with room to spare and it doesn't hurt by back even when I wear it all day walking to class. The color was so cute and I'm so pleased with this book bag.

School Bag. Extremely spacious for a 8th grader. Perfect size.

I ordered this backpack for my sophomore year in high school, and it came within one week. When it arrived, I was so happy with the product! I ordered the grey and surf green recon, and the colors are beautiful and bright. The laptop and tablet sleeves are very useful in school for my laptop, and the secondary compartment has awesome organization pockets for my calculator, pencils and pens, small books, and other random items. The front mesh pocket is also helpful to put oddly shaped items in or things I don't want in the zippered compartments, and things don't fall out of it. Overall, this backpack is the perfect size for a high schooler, with high comfort, style, and durability.

Best Looking backpack

I honestly love this product. Before this I had my backpack for 8 years. I don't like any other pack pack. The North Face is comfortable, fashionable, and fits all my books and binders for college. I'd to comment this for everyone.

I use this back pack in college and it is great for toting my books around and also safe to put my computer in.

I use this backpack for school. It is large enough to hold everything that I need. Very durable and comfortable.

Loved it

I use this to go to school and for soccer gear.

My daughter wanted this to use for college. She liked the color and that it has a special laptop storage area.

Great product with lots of features, I would definitely recommend this backpack

I bring this backpack with me wherever I go! Whether I'm bringing it to school, on a backpacking trip on the Appalachian trail, or a day trip to New York, this bag is perfect in every situation. It is durable, resistant to things like dirt and water, and there is a place for everything I need (not to mention it it is extremely stylish and cool!).

My son said its the best he has ever had!

Great for carrying those heavy college books AND protecting a computer. My daughter will get years of use out of this backpack.

This bag is used for an 8th grade student. She loves the colors and I love the durability of the bag. She had another north face bag, the borealis and it lasted her 3 yrs and she handed it down to her 3rd grade sister as she needed more room. The borealis is good for late elem. And middle school. The recon is great for 8th grade thru college. Hoping this bag will last thru high school and then be handed down which I'm sure it will. My daughter is small and the books were killing her back, all the other bags had no support. The northface bags have supportive spine pieces and cushiony straps. It's a great bag and I love the added whistle on the buckle. If she ever needs it ,it's there for her :)
