Customer Reviews The North Face Jester Backpack

I like very much new backpack, is perfect for everyday use, for my work stuff and to have weekend vacation.

I use this backpack for college and it's not a bad bag, I just really would've liked one a bit bigger. The way it's designed doesn't allow a lot of room for some of my smaller books to fit in an organized manner. The main compartment will hold my laptop, a two inch binder, and a one inch, but I have to turn my lit book on its spine and slide it in there so I can get a couple of extra things in. This of course means that in order to get to my book, I have to take stuff out and put it back in, and then do the same when I go to put the book back. The front pocket is long and narrow, so if I want to put more than two small books in there, like my Bible and a little notebook, it won't happen unless it's short enough to stack on top of my Bible. It also makes the bag kind of top heavy, so it falls over frontwards when I set it down, which may not be a big issue to some, but to me it just gets kind of annoying sometimes. Especially when I have to slide it under my desk to keep it out of the isles and getting in people's way. Even with all these petty cons, I'm still going to use it because it's a backpack and I needed one. I just got tired of looking and finally bought this one since my old backpack (that I had used for the past two years) was falling apart. I'm not trying to say it's a terrible backpack at all, it's just not the best for me, but I can overlook the "flaws." Particularly when I love the color and it's made with such good quality. I don't expect this one to break down after two years of use.

I've always had issues buying a book bag that would be comfortable on my back and durable to weight! The jester backpack does the job and is very stylish!

Love this backpack! I attend college and this is perfect for my laptop, books and accessories. Very comfortable on my shoulders and fits my body great. Would recommend to someone going to school.

Daughter bought this backpack for school. When it arrived e noticed that it was a little smaller than we thought it would be. She still loves it!

I was so happy when i got it! perfect size and everything!!! once i put it on it was very comfortable!! I actually use this backpack for school because i would thought it would be very comfortable to walk with and i was right! but i do wish the backpack had more space to fit all my school things but i understand cause it was made for hiking but i chose it to be my backpack! what I'm trying to say is yes, i love my backpack and i would definitely recommend this to a friend to use for hiking or for school. your choice ;)

I use this bag as a school bag. I love it! It fits everything without being to big. It's not heavy and it's very comfortable. The only thing that I would like it to have is a small outside pocket for my keys and student id.

I love this bag bc it makes it so much easier to carry my books around and it has a pouch for my laptop that's the best part! I love the little extra things like the place to hold a drink

Having been a long time North Face backpack user, it was time for an upgrade.I went with the jester because that's what I normally purchase. The color was great, however, it is smaller than previous version. I use it for school, work and travel so I'm not sure it will be big enough. We shall see.

I love this bag! It arrived quickly took about 5 days. It's just as I expected it to be! I love the all gray look with the purple logo. I am a female and it fits great. Very comfortable. The main compartment is quite roomy. Fits about 3 chunky textbooks and 2-3 notebooks. Perfect college backpack.

Love this backpack, if I sweat while walking between classes, the backpack stays cool and not wet

I am a college student and I use this back pack for school. I love the convenient pockets on the inside and how comfy the backpack is when heavy. I like that it has two holders for drinks, but they aren't quite elastic enough for when I have a smaller container. My drinks fall out. Other than that, the back pack is great.

This is a nice looking pack for light use, but for text books, etc, we upgrade to the Borealis. The new women specific shape of the straps is nice and comfortable.

I use this for achool

This backpack is great for carrying books and keeping my laptop protected.

I knew this was going to be a little smaller but I bought it anyways. The back pocket can fit probably 2 books and a notebook (without the laptop). The front pocket is pretty small also! I love this backpack but wouldn't recommend if you have a lot of books or things to carry! Colors are really awesome! And its really comfortable on my back.

Waiting to see how it last. I normally end up buying 2 bookbags per year. Hopefully this year I won't have to.

Northface always has good quality products.

Color is exactly as picture shows. Very good size and I love how much room there is. It's perfect for all my uses, whether it's school, heading to the gym, or anything else, it fits everything and stands up well! My only negative is the the back of the backpack is very stiff. I may have to give it more use, but as of now there isn't much give to it. Overall it was a great purchase and I'm very happy with it. Looking forward to all the great use I'll get out of this product!!

i use it for school and it keeps everything in order.

I use this backpack for college. I wanted a small backpack that wasn't going to be huge when I wasn't carrying a lot of things. I got the small size I wanted, but sometimes seems too small when I have textbooks. The women's fit was a new option and one that I am really glad I chose! I've compared it to my friends original Jester and much prefer the padding and structure of the women's fit. Would recommend to friends.

High quality and cute colors!

My son loves the pockets and functionality of the bag great straps nice and cushion

Great for school and the way it's adjusted to the shoulders really helps with comfort.

I use this backpack to carry my Macbook and a few books back and forth from work. I love it! It's not too bulky yet does the job!
