Customer Reviews The North Face Recon Squash Backpack (Youth)

Very cute functional backpack for a young child.

Lovely bag for our 6year old boy. He uses it as a school bag. Good size !

This gift for our 4 year old grandson is a big hit! Large enough to hold his lunch box, jacket and all the other necessities for a four year old...but not too big. Both cute and convenient with all the features you expect from a quality North Face product. I hope North Face continues to carry this, and increases the color options available. This one is great, but it would be nice to have more options.

Perfect size for my kindergartener. He loves it and so do I.

I attend a homeschool group twice a week and have to bring a lot of books and supplies. This backpack allows me to carry all my books/supplies comfortably without causing issues with my back or shoulders. I am able to get to my things quickly without having to fish around for them.

Needed a back pack for my child. I loved this style! It is easy for them to use, and there is a small pocket at the top, perfect for snacks. The mesh pocket on outer side is perfect for a water bottle. Easy access to grab water and if lid isn't secured at school well, it just spills exterior while books remain dry on the inside of pack. I love the pop of green for front buckle. This bag holds school folders and library books well. Probably not excellent for text books. Fantastic for hikes! Empty school stuff out and replace with snacks, an insulated lunch pail, water, and layers for hiking. Comfortable straps, for day use.

I bought it for my 1st grader daughter to use for school (+camping/hiking). Looks comfortable and durable. Maybe a bit small for older kids, but perfect for 1-2 graders.

Bought this for my 5 year old. Fits his folders perfectly and is just the right size for his back.

Backpack for grandson for Christmas.

Turned to this backpack when another brand was sold out. Bought for my school-aged son. Great pattern (doesn't show dirt!) and he loves clipping it to wear as he walks to school

Navigating out of the deep, soaring along the black winds over the sea, traversing the troublesome morning paths of doom... to Preschool... this majestic backpack has been forged by the gods to meet any challenge our 3 year old hero will face.

I use this product for my kid to use at school. It roomy brought to fit all his stuff.

Great quality, perfect size for my 1st grader. Easy to clean! Will only use these backpacks for my kids!! I'm a fan going on 6 years!! And it's affordable! Kids love them! No complaints!

Durable and my mom use for traveling . She loves the color too !!

Cute and just the right size for a 5 year old/Kindergartener.

Nice fit even for almost four years old. It's good size to fit the folder from school, lunch box and a bunch more. My preschooler loves his backpack.

We LOVE this backpack for our 5 year old - he uses it both for kindergarten and travel. We looked at and tried out at least 6 bags and found this one to far surpass the others in all facets. He has lots of places to put his things, it fits really well and is proportionally appropriate for his size, has nice cushioned straps, and the chest strap is super helpful especially when the pack is packed to the brim :) It feels very well-built and sturdy. We also love the look and messages on the patches and plan to add others of our own.

A gift for my great niece. Her favorite colors are pink and purple, and she does love her animal prints--at three years old. My niece helped me figure out which pack to order; perfect for the child's folders and large books she totes around in preschool. As always the NF lifetime warranty guarantees you unreal value.

Great backpack for my kindergartener. Highly recommend.

I bought this backpack for my 8 year old son who is in 2nd grade. He likes the backpack but it does seems a little small. This backpack is more for a prek - 1st grade age group. Although it is on the small side, the backpack is of good quality.

Absolutely love this pack! Searched long for a backpack that would fit school notebooks, folders, books, water and lunch but that didn't totally overwhelm my kid. Love how the straps fit and especially like the front chest clip. Excellent for my kindergartener, and look forward to a few years of use out of it.

Not only Good for Kids, But Also Good for Women!

Great size for a 7 year old...and will last till 10-12 years old. This is a rare in-between size for toddlers or adults. Color is popping...your kid will definitely be seen. We like it

I ordered this backpack for my niece, she loves the stylish look and her mother loves the practicality that this pack offers. It has all of the bells and whistles that an adult pack offers, paired down in size to fit a 6 year old perfectly.

I got 2 of these for my 6 yr old twins (1 black + 1 pink). They love them! They are cute, comfortable and the perfect size for their age.
