Customer Reviews The North Face Jester Backpack

It's for school

This book bag is incredible. I have used mine almost every single day for 8 years and I am just now having to replace it because one of the zippers is broken. It went through college and high school with me, endured long summers working at an overnight camp, has traveled to many states and countries, and more. The laptop sleeve is perfect and the organization system in the front pocket is great so that you don't just have all of your stuff floating around. I had a black one and it rarely needed cleaning. I could not recommend more. The straps are a bit stiff at first, but they just need a little breaking it. It is so comfortable after that.

Attractive neutral color w/small colorful highlight (Zinc Grey/Windmill blue). Size and weight work well for a small frame, yet the bag holds a significant amount. The front (and laptop) pockets provide what I find is just the right amount of smaller compartments (including good combination of open and zippered areas) for regular errand/commuting needs around the city. Laptop section works well for folders/papers when not carrying a laptop. I originally purchased for carrying ease due to an injury, but I'm now happily expecting to be able to use the bag for a variety of errand and travel purposes. Very pleased with my purchase and would highly recommend for a diverse range of purposes.

Recently carried my new Jester with my water bottle, my rain poncho, my Canon SX70, a portable tripod, and a solar power pack all over paths and trails in Quebec, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, and Maine. It rides very well on my 70+ year-old, somewhat arthritic back, distributes the weight I'm carrying extremely well, never slid down my back, and never once caused me to feel unbalanced, even on slippery, trippy, broken trails in Saguenay National Park.

My niece wanted this NF backpack for high school and it was a great choice - its roomy, comfortable and classic - doesn't need anything else.

It's great! Nice colors and I love the design!

Perfect size

I take this backpack to school everyday and it fits a lot of things

This has so many pockets and isn't great for organization. My only complaint is the main pocket is a little tight and needs to be worn in. Overall great quality!

Really great quality backpack but it's way too small for students. My daughter is a high school student and she could barely fit 3 one inch binders in the backpack. It could maybe work for someone who does have a lot of supplies but my daughter is ultra organized and this backpack was not going to cut it

i live it

i started college this week and i was really looking for a book bag that lasts a long time and i heard great review about these and they are great for school material and my laptop! love it !

Great for school, lasts for many years

Bought this bag for my daughter who will be a senior this fall. She loves it!

Use this everyday for school with heavy books and it feels so good and comfy on my shoulders

Great product - would recommend

This backpack is not only stylish but it is able to hold everything I need. It is comfortable and durable for the long school days.

Perfect for students! Hold a lot

I use this for school. It's a good looking backpack, it's comfortable, I just wish it were a little bigger. It only fits about 2 of my binders.

Makes a great college backpack

bought this for my high school daughter for back-to-school. It seems well made, no problems with quality at first appearance, but is way too small for all the stuff that a high school student needs to haul around all day. She likes the way the backpack looks very much, but we will be returning it to be able to get one that is bigger. If you are sure this one will be big enough for all you need to carry, I would recommend it, but be sure to check the size/volume of it first. We are exchanging is for the Borealis model.

This backpack is for my daughter to use in high school. As an avid tennis player who carries all her tennis gear to school each day, we really needed a sturdy, comfortable backpack designed for everyday use to accommodate all her school stuff.

Use it to school everyday. Besides it being cute, It gives great support and is comfortable to use all day.

I use this for school and it is very comfortable and durable

Purchased this backpack for college and walking to classes from apartment. The shoulder straps are so thick and stiff it rubbed exposed skin raw and caused shoulders to hurt from wearing it.
