Customer Reviews The North Face Jester Backpack

This backpack has lots of room for college supplies and I love the padded laptop section!

I bought this as a college backpack. It is able to fit a couple folders, a textbook, free reading book, binder and other necessities. It is not a huge heavy duty backpack but I like that because it gives me a reason to not carry so much. I also like the color. It could use more easy access pockets in the front though.

I love this backpack from North Face, I take it with me on trips/hikes. I would highly recommend it!!

Got this bag because all my friends said it is one of the best bags in the market. Definitely worth the money. I do wish it was a little bigger but I'm fine with the size of the bag. It can carry my MacBook, iPad, and some books without feeling heavy. I would definitely buy another one when I need another one.

I use this backpack for college. I thought it would hold more. It gets bulky easily & I thought it would expand length wise instead outwards away from my back. It is more comfortable than my previous Jansport bag. I enjoy the pockets & laptop slot. My back is a little concave, & the spine of the backpack is quite padded & therefore a little stiff, so there is an awkward gap b/w my lower back & the backpack, but it's not too uncomfortable. I am happy with the color and size.

I had an older model of the same backpack. The way it sits on my back is significantly better but it seems to hold just a little less than before.

Gift for college student. Nice, but very expensive!

For school or just and walking or camping trips with family or friends.

I bought this backpack because I had a lot of travel for work coming up. It holds my laptop and a notebook easily in the laptop sleeve. The backpack holds a lot, but it quickly gets heavy (probably mostly due to the laptop - the backpack itself is not that lightweight to begin with, but that's because it has good structure and padding). It's worked really well for me so far. I also really like that the zippered inside pocket has a clip with a long attachment that you can use to hold your keys, or something like that, so that they can't fall out.

love this backpack, it's withstood everything I could've possibly thrown at it. it comfortably holds all five of my textbooks and hasn't shown a single sign of damage, as well as being quite appealing to the eye. I do wish the material on the straps wasn't so rough though.

I got this for school, after my friend said hers has lasted her 4 years. So far, it's doing well!

I recently brought this bag for school, and I love it. The only thing I don't like about the bag is that it can't fit a lot of my books. So pretty much everything is tightly squeezed.

I bought this bag to replace another 15" laptop specific backpack with a broken zipper. It fits everything I need for traveling for work, and has a large capacity. When full it's a bit bulky, but I'm 5'2" and used to carrying around smaller bags. It's lightweight on its own and empty, which is a plus. Overall it does its job well for what I need it for, and the multicolor looks really cool.

I use this for school. And it works great. It's great for all my school supplies and multiple compartments inside compartments.

Nice pack, that fits comfortably. I am an active 25 year old female with an athletic build, who is 5'5" and 130 lbs. I wanted a smaller pack that I could use for hiking and 3 day camping trips, as well as for my track gear while I coach. This pack is a good size for both! The only thing I would change would be to add more zipper shut pockets (only 1 on the inside of the front zippered area) for my smaller items (band-aids, jewelry, wallet, etc). Besides that I thought this fit more comfortably than the "Vault" for being a comparable medium sized pack.

Great for school or traveling. Nice design esthetically and very functional!

I love this book bag. The back is hard and I wanted to return it at first but my friends convinced me to keep it. After about three weeks of using it the hard back kind of molded to fit my back so now it's the most comfortable book bag I've owned.

Works well for my daughters school work

I am a nursing student so HEAVY BOOKS! This makes the load much easier on my back.

The color online didn't match when it came in. It was smaller than I expected, the load capacity wasn't as big as I would have liked. It is very comfortable. I use it daily. I walk a lot at my university and this backpack never makes my back ache.

I use this backpack as my school backpack and it's working great! I'm planning on taking it with me while I study abroad in New Zealand and using it to hold things while we go hiking there.

I use this as a gym bag and as a backpack for grad school and it is great. I love the pattern but I do wish that there was one more small zipper pocket on the front of the bag.

I Ana teacher and use this for my daily bag. So far it works great on lighter loads

I just use it for school

I use this backpack for around school and any short weekend trips. I definitely recommend it to people with the same use in mind. I do wish the main compartment was a little larger for more notebook storage. But overall it holds a lot and doesn't put too much weight on my back since I am a petite size.
