Customer Reviews The North Face Recon

Great backpack, with good compartiments and nice finishing,

I use my backpack for day-to-day classes and my internship in college. It's the perfect size and comfort to carry everything I need, and I love the pockets for my writing utensils and tech.

Great color and functionality. Some of the pockets are small so do not expect to put a bunch of clothes in it. For a medium backpack it had plenty of storage though.

For my son in laws engineering job.

A perfect day bag

Stylish and cute backpack for my high school girl!

Great size and color

its just cute. my son is going to be a sophomore this year and he picked this color. I'm sure it'll get dirty quickly, but while it's in its packaging, it looks beautiful lol.

I am a college professor and I needed a new backpack for my bike commute too and from work. I was also looking for a backpack that I could take on an occasional hike and on business trips. So it had to be functional, but also professional looking. The Recon checked all of those boxes. It fits all of my needs in a comfortable, durable, rugged, and stylish manner. It fits my 17 inch laptop well. I just packed it for a 4 day business trip and it fit everything that I needed for that. I would definitely get this backpack again.

Great product would buy again but doubt I will need to.

Great backpack perfect size for everything my middle schooler needs to carry.

My son loves his me back!!! He got for his first year of HS

For work. Our son in law is a mechanical engineer.

Love the new pockets of this version of the Recon backpack. The materials used for this bag are phenomenal and I can already tell this bag is going to last quite a long time. I am very pleased that the pockets are no longer mesh but can still hold my 32oz water bottle. The organization in the backpack makes it 10 times better and adding back the front mesh pocket back onto the bag is why I decided on this bag. It's perfect for a book or tshirt and sometimes I even throw in a small bag that holds my pencils and markers. The ultimate bag for college and beyond!

Purchase the backpack for my son,he love the back support as he carries a lot of books.

Great for day hikes and travel carry on bag. Fits under airline seats and holds a good size laptop. I wish the side pockets for water bottles were also made of the same stretchy material as the middle pocket.

The best bag for my macbook air 15 inches. Very rugged looks and the material is first class and feels very smooth.

Little to no wind drag, at 170 mph

This backpack is so spacious, the straps are comfortable and i love the color. Can't wait to use it, for work, outings and everywhere else!

This backpack looks great and will be perfect for the multi-use applications that I have in mind (day hikes, bike commutes, and school use). The laptop sleeve fits my 17" LG Gram well. I love all of the different compartments and the overall look of the pack.

Favorite since day 1. I used to have it in high school. I had a hot shot before 2 times. That was my favorite. I love this one too

Love the style Good quality Good size for both hiking or office/school

This bag is very convenient and large enough to hold all your belongings. I love all the pockets and the overall design of the bag.

It's a great backpack.
