Customer Reviews The North Face Recon

The mesh tore while putting a soft lunch bag in it. I though that the mesh would be more durable than that.

Love the bag very spacious, love all the pockets and fix's a big water bottle on both size

I love it

This backpack is ridiculously overbuilt for my needs, and it's super nice. The material quality is top notch, and I can tell it will last a long time

My teen is using it in high school. Says he loves the look and feel of it and the way he can organize his accessories. However, he mentioned that each section is restricted to its exact allotted space/size - there's no stretch. Seems to be of good quality and durability, but it's too soon to tell for sure.

Great protection great quality just a great backpack

My 2 daughters got these this year well made and built to last, worth the price plus from North Face got 20% off total purchase they will be using all the way thru college. LOVE IT!!

Backpacks are well made my oldest daughter had one for Jr year of high school and is still using as a sophomore in college.

Great quality, lots of pockets and separated zipper areas. Improved water bottle pockets that aren't mesh like the old style to ensure they won't tear.

Love it! Sturdy and amazing!

So far we love the backpack.

I purchased the Recon backpack because it's a perfect combination for me; take it outdoors and carry my technology to work. Its versatile, sturdily built and comfortable.

Looks just like what you see on the website. Very sturdy and has held up. Great feel and is great for a school backpack. I would recommend to anyone.

I use the backpack everyday carrying essentials around with me. Great product

School backpack. Though wish it had a slot for iPad.

This bag is great! I absolutely love it. It is very roomy and comfortable to wear on your back. It is not flashy looking, but very sleek and has a outdoorsy look with a contemporary style. I use it everyday!

2nd time buying this backpack for my family - just different color. The kids love it! Durable and washes well.

This backpack is amazing, it has a great amount of storage and doesn't hurt my back. I would definitely recommend it.

I'm able to put in everything I need for the day and/our weekend.

My son loves his new backpack! Perfect size and has a special section just for his laptop. The bright blue color is awesome also

I bought it as a college student it's very comfortable, aesthetically pleasing & very spacious for all my belongings. It would be a great bag to travel or hike with too with its comfortability & space.

I wish more backpacks were made like this. If It was waterproof, it would be one of the world's best bags ever made!!

This is a great backpack. Our son is using it for school. He's used other backpacks in the past and they've all fallen apart after just a few weeks. Last year he ended up using my north face backpack from 20 years ago that stayed strong. This one seems to be just as sturdy as my old one. And the pockets and size are perfect.

Great versatility back pack. It solves all the problems

Bought this backpack for high school son. Lots of room, comfortable and is built for daily wear and tear.
