Super sturdy n great for college

Bought this for nursing school! Love it! It's perfect!

Every year since my Goddaughter started school it became a tradition that I buy her a backpack for her birthday, which is the weekend before the new school year starts. This year she starts Middle school and I already got an A+ for the year getting her this backpack. She said her first week with it to school felt and looked awesome on her! It is the best Choice yet! Durable and comfortable!

Everything is perfect about it. Love everything about it.

I'm able to carry my class folders and books along with my clarinet case.

I really love this backpack. I bought it for law school, and it comfortably holds my laptop, two casebooks, my 1.5 inch binder, and my lunch. Lots of other law students have the same one.

I use this bag for college and it fits all my books and lapyop in it.

As a commuter student in college, I needed something that would do well when walking around campus and going from one place to another. This bag holds a lot and has pockets for almost everything. I love this bag, and I don't think I would buy another one besides this one!

I was looking for a backpack that could finally handle all of my classes at once. Since I only had them twice a week I was looking for a backpack that could handle all of those books. I found one! I was/am so happy with this backpack and plan on if it ever wears out getting another!

I bought this for my son to take to College. It's the perfect size, great construction, looks great and has all the right compartments plus his laptop is safe and secure. Even fully loaded, this backpack is comfortable on his back and shoulders. Love it!

Great for teenagers in need of a larger bag to carry for school.

I love this backpack. It has good support for my laptop and I don't see myself hovering over because my backpack is too heavy. I can't hold a lot of my books but I have very big books and binders. It is very fashionable and is worth the money.

Backpack is great for every day use. I can easily fit my laptop and 3 books with plenty of space left over. Would highly recommend this backpack to anybody!

Great people and a great store.

love that there's enough space to fit everything for the school day and after. my books, folders, and sneakers for track fit perfectly! totally worth the price

Excellent for first year of high school takes the place of the fact I have no locker it is my portable locker

I purchased this Recon BackPack for my 15 year old grandson as a back to school present. Not only does he use it daily for his books, papers and laptop, but he also uses it to transport his swim gear. As a year round competitive swimmer and also on the Myers Park High School Mustang swim team, he needed a durable backpack for not only school but dual use with swim gear.

Great backpack for school!!!

I use my North Face backpack to school, and it is very helpful. I have to carry a lot of heavy books and binders and it all fits in the backpack and it's comfy too!

This bag is everything I needed. It is durable, so it is holding up to my three textbooks and various binders and sheet music, and still has room for my lunch. I can also fin a good two weeks worth of clothes in it which makes for easy travel. It's organizational pockets have greatly helped me keep up with everything at school. I do wish the front pouch was a little bigger to fit a pair of running shoes however. This bag is fantastic, and I would definitely recommend it to a friend.

Loves how durable but love how stylish

I am on the smaller side (5'3") and this backpack works! I was afraid it was going to be too big and bulky for me but it is perfect, it fits all of my notebooks, textbooks, and counter for school and the straps help disperse the weight. Along with the extra padding, my back doesn't hurt after a long day of classes! Also my 40 oz hydro flask water bottle fits perfectly in the pocket. Will be purchasing all backpacks from north face in the future.

I bought this for my 13 year old daughter because she loved it and because the North Face backpack I bought my 15 year old daughter when she was 13 is still in great shape. For her it's all about looking cool. For me it's about value and a quality product. This backpack gives us both and I expect she'll still be looking cool with it as she heads to high school next year.
