Customer Reviews The North Face Recon

Great backpack for someone that does a lil of everything, student, overnight, daypack. It has the room for a lot of different gear/clothes.

Good quality, very comfortable. Best backpack ive ever had.

I've used Recon backpacks for school, work, and travel for over 10 years now and this model is definitely my favorite one. It has has all of the features I was looking for, including a separate protective laptop compartment extra small pockets/pouches to keep my cords and miscellaneous items organized. The backpack is very comfortable and the material quality is great. Would definitely buy this again

Best Daily / work Backpack Ever! I ended up returning Cotopaxi, Bellroy, and Peak Designs backpacks for this! I do waaaay too much research on backpacks and still end up coming back to Nortface because no one compares to the comfort, versatility, and durability.

Everyday for work, hiking, short term travel!

I use this backpack every single day and it is amazing. It is super amazing and fits my large 40oz water bottle, something I have been looking for. The main compartment is super spacious and there are plenty of smaller pockets in the outside compartment. I also like the quick reach compartment on the front. Highly recommend!

Love this backpack! Perfect size, style, and color. Use it for work every day, protects my belongings and laptop.

Size as expected, pretty high quality

The perfect mid size backpack

I work for a water purification ministry that installs safe water systems in developing countries. 12 years, 43 trips, disaster zones, 2 Recon packs. My next pack? Recon. My last pack, Recon.

I use all North Face products. This backpack works perfectly for business and school use.

Best and most versatile backpack. Traveled internationally with it and pretty much used this bag as a traveling office/ tactical bag.

Good quality. Strong zippers

I needed a light backpack for use as a Conductor for a Class one railroad. Backpack has plenty of room for all my gear and electronics. Looks great and happy with my purchase.

I put my personal things whenever I go to work and when traveling.

I put my uniform, my food, my electronic gadgets and whatever things I need to go to work.

Great quality and useful

The best bag! Just upgraded from an original recon bag! These bags are tough and will last for Many many years like my original recon.

This bag was the best choice. It is not inferior in size or storage or in any way. You won't regret your choice.

Great backpack. Slim, compact. Plenty of pockets. Laptop case is big.

As a school student, I have many items that need to fit in my bag. Some are costly tech stuff to snacks to eat during my breaks never had an internal issue with the space and design. There is a lot of protection for the laptop space allocated and didn't think even once about going out during winter or the rainy season. Everything seems intact.

Durable, spacious and comfortable on your shoulders.

I bought this for my fianc and he loves it. Fits everything that he carries on a daily basis for work.

It's great.

Sturdy bag. Unfortunately I had to return it as the sides were too narrow to fit my water bottles.
