Customer Reviews The North Face Router

Good

Awesome bag!!

Many deep pockets and comfortable

This is a great bag with plenty of pockets

Great backpack for travel, which the side pockets were mesh. That's the only thing I would change. Can't complain about the zippers as I hear othersthey are thick and sturdy.

Great back pack

Best backpack I've every owned.

Best backpack I every owned. Lots of space!

the best utility and durable purchase for me an intelligent purchase and I am very happy with it and many more things from North face

Bought the older version with the overlapping front pockets 10 Years ago. Simply brilliant, would change nothing. Bought as my carry on for flights, so needed to organize for up to a two week trip, went around the world 6 times with it. Also has full backpack capabilities. Front two pockets, the little things. Top sunglass pocket, mini kits, sewing, headphones, etc. First big pocket with multipockets inside, toiletries. Main packet, clothes, books. Lappy pocket, ms surface. Perfect design, and still looks like new, nothing broken. Would often have up to 13kg in it.

I have purchased the Nora Face back pack many time#. Purchased this one as a gift for my grandson who is a college sophomore. This bag replaces the identical back pack I purchased for him when he was a sophomore in high school. The older one is still in good shape, so he cleaned it up and donated it. I feel sure this new back pack will take Matthew into his first years of teaching special education. AND it matches his North Face Jackets - COOL!!!!

The quility and design I believe is good but I would rather more space especially for the front pocket

Easy to organize, with a pocket for everything right where you want it. Capacity is good, too- enough but not too much. Seems sturdy, as my teen son is putting it through its paces, using it as both a daypack for hiking and a workhorse for school. Recommend!

A fantastic, lightweight, compartmented, and agile backpack. I use this backpack daily. I have to commute via bicycle and I weight and size were important factors. The lightweight material allows me to pack what I need without worrying about cutting weight. I also like that the bag can expand and retract, allowing to put multiple changes of clothes, books, and my laptop in one bag. Lastly, using this for my commute, I need room to put my lunch and drinks for the day. With the front pouch having compartments and an open area, I'm able to stack my food in there and put my coffee and water in the pockets on the sides of the bag. Altogether, I've used this bag for my intended purpose and have found it to be perfect in every regard.

I absolutely love this bag!! So many pockets and do much room. I love the fact that the bag stands up when you put it down. It's really well made and comfortable. I'm really happy with my purchase

This will be used for my sons Junior year of high school. It hasn't been used yet, but looks to be sturdy and spacious. Lots of pockets.

Great backpack. Perfect for short or long travel.

School and Beach

A lot of space and comfortable to wear. Lots of pockets to store stuff and keep water bottles on the sides

Large capacity backpack. Room for all my gears. Built to last. Worth every dollar spent.

We have 6 of these from various generations over the last 7ish years. It’s the bag of choice for my husband and all the kids. We’ve taken these all over the world. Built to last and can hold so much! This thing gets better with every redesign.

Good quality

The Router Backpack is a nice replacement fo my Surge backpack. It's large and roomy with both the rear pocket with the laptop space and middle pocket. The 3rd pocket which holds smaller items such as pens and zippered pocket area is Ok, which is similar in volume as the Surge, although I remember when that pocket was much larger in earlier versions. The top "sunglasses" pocket is spacious but don't like the position of the zipper at the bottom of the pocket, where items could fall out if the zipper is open. Othewise, it's a fine backpack good for travelling.

Very sturdy backpack - perfect size - although would like more pockets.

This is my favorite North Face bag. I use it for travel. It stands up by itself with my load and is spacious. However I find myself going to another bag from a different brand more that also stands up by itself. This is because this other bag has a mesh stuff pocket up in front. Router does not have this feature which is a ding for me.
