Customer Reviews The North Face Women's Recon

Each of our daughters have used The Northface backpacks and we have always been happy with the quality. Now our youngest is attending a school where she is bringing a laptop each day and the room on this backpack is excellent for that purpose.

ordered the north face recon backpack for college - love the color - wonderful back support for transporting books and computer around campus - very padded and secured computer compartment as well as compartments for all the thing you might need in class - well worth the investment

I am throughly impressed with the women's recon backpack and am completely satisfied with the product I ordered

So far this bag has held up nicely to the daily use of walking to and from campus with a full load of books and notes. The backpack pockets are wider than the last north face bag I had, which makes it easier to pull big books out of. Also, the color is amazing! Really happy with this bag!

I ordered this backpack for my girlfriend and when it arrived in the mail I noticed it was a little masculine. I exchanged it for a different color.

I bought this to use in college, and I love the padding in the back and all of the different pockets! Great backpack overall.

I did a lot of research before my purchase, because a good backpack ain't cheap! I love this backpack. It is just what I wanted. it fits well and hold a lot of stuff, and that's the goal. I recommend it!

I love my Recon backpack, it serves me a lot of purpose, I am triathlete so I use it a lot, during training, or use as a transition bag during the race, it is very slick and stylish but yet durable

Going into year 3 of college as a Marketing Major, I knew I needed the perfect backpack. I also knew I needed to get away from my hot pink and flimsy back back that was lets just say for junior high. I found myself carrying a backback and books in my hands which is a no when you have to walk across campus. I am also a Colleg softball player and while traveling every weekend and having to carry my laptop on the road, I was thrilled when I noticed my new North Face backpack had a place on the back with tons of padding to protect my laptop. I am always getting complements when carrying my North Face backpack and is hasn't even been a month since recievinf it! Thank you North face! Junior year, here I come!

Great looking backpack to start college. Excited to put this into use! It's a great size and the lined pockets were a great touch!

The Recon backpack is a great example of where comfort meets utility. I've now used this pack on multiple hikes up mountains in Utah and Switzerland, storing everything from my camera to camping gear efficiently. As well, when traveling, this has been my go to carry on as it has padded sleeves to fit my laptop and kindle. Great pack!

Exactly what I was looking for...

I am a rising Junior in High School. I had an older version of the Recon before purchasing this one, and it was so great my older brother who is a Senior in College stole it! Before purchasing it I wanted to know how many thing it could fit, so for you high schoolers out there : the recon fits 2 one inch binders, 5 one subject notebooks, 1 three subject notebook, and 6 folders in JUST the main pocket. In the organizational pocket, I carry my agenda, calculator and pencil case, as well as a few doo-dads for school. I love this bag and recommend it to any student!

This bag wont disappoint! It is beautiful, and the grey part is more detailed / patterned than the camera captures online - really nice - my daughter loves it! The pink is a unique raspberry / fushia berry color too! Overall we are very pleased.

I'm a college student and had my last north face backpack for 8 years. Starting grad school, I thought it was time for a new one so I invested in this backpack. It's working great so far and has a great compartment to protect my laptop. I love it!

Love this bookbag! So many pockets, comfortable straps for my daughter's shoulders, and very cute style. Of course NF brand is very popular too

the backpack is in great condition and working properly. although I didn't think the color matched perfectly with the description online. I thought I was ordering a white colored backpack with grey zippers and detailing, but I got a more washed out grey color instead of white. I didn't mind because it was not that big of a deal.

My high school age child loves this backpack.

Purchased as a gift for someone starting college this fall, she loved it!

I bought this backpack for my grandson for College and he said it was perfect. I also bought one for my son for day pack for hiking and mountain climbing. Excellent

My daughter has loved her recon this year for High School. It is perfect for all of her heavy books and is comfortable on her shoulders. She loves the space it has and also loves the color she chose. Great decision going with this one this year!!

I bought this bag for myself for my school backpack and it's great! Not only do the compartments make it super easy to carry all my school supplies and keep them organized, but it's also super cute! Over all I'm extremely happy with my purchase and I definitely recommend this bag. However if you're planning to buy this bag for long term use, I might suggest a more neutral color because I'm kindof tired of the color I picked out and may buy a new one in a more simple color/pattern.

I have loved this back pack so far! It's so useful!

This backpack is super spacious with a ton of compartments for your items as well as soft compartments for your electronics!great cushioning!

My daughter loves this book bag! The padding on the back of the book bag really helps. It has so much space! Love it!
