Customer Reviews The North Face Jester Backpack

My son had one of these for years. He loved using it for school, but it was just to small for all those books, binder, iPad and lunch. He had to go to just using it for trips and such. My husband also loved it and always tried to take and use himself when he needed a back pack. I eventually bought him his own so he's not trying to steal my sons. The both love how comfortable it is to wear.

I bought this bag for hiking, conventions, and festivals. It's been great.

love this backpack! would def recommend

Great design and color scheme

Perfect for travel. Plenty of space and very secure. Stiches and zippers are robust.

This bagpack has been amazing and its price is also very competitive compared to backpacks of similar quality. I can fit my 15.6 inch laptop easily. Although its capacity it 29L, since it has a long design, it is particularly suitable for large laptops (such as 15.6 inch ones) I recommend it over to Patagonia's 30L Chacabuco backpack which could hardly fit my laptop. The navy blue color is gorgeous.

great backpack, suits very well

this backpack is so so nice! i've had it for about a week now and i'm absolutely loving it; it's comfortable, compact, and looks nice too! i was a little cautious about the size after reading some reviews, but i think it's not too bad! it's definitely on the small side compared to the bigger jansport backpacks, but it's SO MUCH BETTER! i'm a high school student and i can fit all my books and lunch and extra things in there. the straps are adjustable and the padding on the back is very comfortable. overall, i highly recommend this backpack and hope to use it for many years!

What I love about TNF Jester is it's simplicity durability and of the price!!! What I love about the Jestet it's looks small but don't let it fool you it can pack if needed!!

Not only is it nice and durable and fits my 10 year old perfectly with lots of room to grow, IT HAS A WHISTLE BUILT INTO THE STERNUM STRAP!!! We just noticed it and had to review that. Has to be the best feature yet.

Used it to hike the other day and it was amazing everything I needed fit

My daughter received this backpack as a gift. She loved it, it is adjustable and comfortable. Plus it has a lifetime warranty which is a plus. She will be using this through graduate school.

I got this for my daughter and she just love it, very lightweight and durable

I got this as I am a college student. I have the light blue and gray color I love it! Only downfall is it gets dirty fast.

By far.the best Backpack I have ever owned! Had one all through middle school and got a new one freshman year of high school... 4 years later it still looks almost new! Holds everything I need and is perfect as a carry-on. Won't use any other backpack!

My tent just flooded at a emergency shelter Where I am doing relief work and this backpack is the only thing water did not get in. Thank you north face!!!!!!!!

After years of searching for the perfect backpack I finally stumbled upon this one! I ordered the black/burnt coral/metallic orange which looks nothing like the picture in real life. I prefer the colors more than how it appears on the website. As it's pictured, it looks like a neon orange but it's really rose gold! I am using the backpack for school and I can fit a lot of sketchbooks and art supplies nicely into the bag. The shoulder straps are also very comfortable.

I bought this backpack 6 years ago in 2011, before starting college. I've traveled around the country and around the world with it; used it for my undergraduate, work, and now grad school; and brought it hiking and on numerous other adventures. No tears, no broken zippers, no problems whatsoever. Some of the support has been lost in the arm straps (but hey, I use it everyday, it's to be expected), so now I'm looking to buy a new Jester backpack. But this has been a great 6 years and I'm hoping my new one will last me at least 6 more!

My son (Jack III) picked this one out himself and loves it! I nudged him toward the falcon brown but he decided on the cobalt blue. He is a bit more adventurous in that department than I am, I suppose. I was afraid it might be a bit large for him, but it was just right!

I'm using my backpack for school and it is amazing it is very durable and can handle whatever comes its way! However, if you get a zipper binder it will be a tight squeeze but it will still work. Over all I am very impressed with the quality and durability of this backpack!

I used this for school and am planning on buying another one in a different color.

this is the coolest backpack ever and very comfy

The Jester backpack is a very durable and versatile product. It works great for school and everyday use. The laptop sleeve and padded straps are beneficial features.

Great backpack, love the addition of the laptop sleeve: my Mac appreciates it!

Perfect bag for school. Well balanced for the amount of bags needed for school books. Straps are comfortable on shoulders. Bag is perfect for my needed
