Customer Reviews The North Face Recon

The size the great

My son says “it’s good”

Super ez backpack

Sturdy design. I use it for everything from everyday carry to walks in the woods. Great storage with plenty of options. Would highly recommend for anyone.

I ordered this backpack for my son and he loves it. Very durable material and lots of pockets for water bottle, phone, books, pencils and pens. The best feature is the protective laptop sleeve/pocket. Great purchase for middle school or high school student.

Great pack, replaced an old Patagonia that I had for quite some time. Big upgrade

My son loves this bag

Great backpack, lots of space and features I can customize for different uses. I feel like I can take this bag on any adventure from the mountains to my college campus!

Nasty bag, especially in the light gray color.

The backpack has a great design, perfect for any outdoor occasion and can even carry your techs with ease.

Bought it for my 14 y/o daughter, she loves it. Have not used it yet but bookback looks amazing, love multiple pockets, light weight. Will recommend

This is a perfect size backpack for school. It is not too large and not too small. Has a great space for your laptop and special pockets for pencils and calculator.

Great for school holds everything I need and the laptop compartment is perfect for keeping my books from scratching my computer

Our youngest son had the borealis backpack for 5 years (5th-9th grades) and it was still in GREAT shape but we decided to get him another pack anyway. This one is also excellent quality and should last for 5 years like the last one did. The North Face is the ONLY brand we recommend (and we have 8 kids and have bought many backpacks over the years)!

I use it for school snd this has more than enough space for my 15" laptop and the rest of my school supplies, notebooks, folders, pencil bag, etc. . Very well made, and comfortable when wearing for a long time.

Purchased this for my middle school son and he loves it! It's not too big for him and still can handle all his books and laptop.

Very good backpack. Sturdy, seems durable, looks nice, and a good amount of space with lots of compartments. Good backpack for school! The water bottle pockets could be a little more flexible, but they are durable. Very grateful for this backpack

Good look and quality

This RECON pack is used for tours by a person of advanced years. Works great to store all the items, including two cameras and all associated accessories, cold and/or rain gear, collapsible cane, extra meds, first aid kit, snacks, water and all the other items that 79 years of experience considers necessary for wandering about both new and familiar places in the world. Not only does it have ample room for all those things, it's also comfortable to carry. Can't think of anything I would change in the design or execution of the RECON.

It is just amazing a must buy for everyone.

The backpack has tons of storage. The back padding is comfortable and has good ventilation. I recommend this backpack.

Great bag. Feels sturdy enough for edc and travel.

We bought the same backpack two years ago for my daughter to use as a book bag in high school. It's perfect because it fits everything, including her lunch and gym clothes. It even has a compartment for a wet bathing suit after swim in gym . The old one is still usable, but we bought this new one in a different color for her last two years of high school.

This is my travel bag! I can toss my clothes in, IPad and easily carry it on my back.it fits great, not to small, not to big and is easy on my back. It sits comfortably enough not to interfere with walking. I am disabled and not just any pack will do. This one does!

Love this backpack. It has a suprisingly large capacity yet doesn't look bulky.
