Customer Reviews The North Face Recon

Very pleased! It was a gift for my granddaughter and she loved it. It arrived on time and was exactly what we ordered. I will definitely order from them again.

Great quality and the perfect size. I recently used this backpack for traveling and vacation. It was the perfect size to pack everything I needed for the airport and plane. Also love the color.

I am absolutely in love with my new North Face backpack. I use it on a daily basis for work and life in general. The quality of the workmanship is unlike any bag I've ever owned. On top of that, it's very comfortable around my shoulders. The amount of storage areas within the bag are perfect along with their locations. My laptop, iPad, note books, pens and all my charging components have plenty of space in their individual compartments.

Bag is well built and sturdy

Bag is well made and strong. Very versatile and holds a lot.

smaller than the older version for sure. but love the new material and it is very comfortable

I purchased this backpack for my husband to use as a carryon for a trip we recently took to Belize. It was the perfect size to put under the seat on the airplane. He loved all the compartments for his laptop, snacks, extra clothing, sunglasses, and water bottle. Being able to wear it on his back while navigating the airport with our checked baggage was perfect. Now I want one!

Use this backpack for school and it's really great. Has enough room for all my materials. It's also very comfortable while wearing it.

I use this backpack for school and I like the way it can fit everything I need.

I really liked how it had multiple compartments to separate my laptop from my other items I use for school. What I didn't like too much was there were too many different straps that just dangle around that I can't take off since I don't use them most of the time

Great balance of space an usability. Generally this is used as a daily backpack for laptop, books, writing stuff. But it also works great for a day pack for bike rides and hikes

Really nice backpack, very goodlooking, there is not so much space inside

At the image the colour looks amazing, but the black part is in reslity blue and it doesn't look as good

My son wanted this for school. It is perfect for his MacBook that he has to carry and plenty of room for other school stuff. He loves it. The lumbar support makes this very comfortable to carry all day.

I purchased this Recon backpack for my son, but haven't used it yet. It has many pockets that he could use

Love it - probably best backpack TMF makes. Just wish the colors were more goblin blue and less navy blue. The straps should be goblin in my opinion like the other two they make.

Used it for school and travel and love it

Love it very efficient very light and goes very well for school and travel purposes

amazing!!

Great backpack and it has a lot of room in the section for the laptop, and it is great for any type of use. I have been using it for about two weeks for travel and it has had plenty of room for everything I need. I got the navy blue and its really nice in person, highly recommended.

It looks sturdy. I got it for my high school student to use at school. The laptop pocket is secure. My child feels like they can't fit as much stuff into it as their old Jansport backpack, but that it's a lot sturdier and well-padded/protected.

Great product , after 15 years zipper failed on the last one. I always buy north face for durability.

Love my new backpack! I have an older model Recon for over 15 years and it was still going strong but looking a little over-used. The new one is just as useful and well constructed with many improvements including deeper water bottle pockets, improved front pocket and more. I just took out with me on a ski trip and it worked great for travel and hauling stuff to the slopes.

I use this backpack as my daily commuter for work as well as for day hikes on the weekends. It's perfect for everything. Spacious enough for my work laptop, files, lunch, and water bottles, as well as everything we need out on the trail. I love the catch-all pocket on the front for quick things I need to stash and the multiple zippered pockets for organization are a great help!

The backpack will be used for day hiking and over nighters. I had to return another pack because of problems I had with it and north face was great to work with and the return was super. Thank you for all your help and I plan on doing much more shopping with you.
