I'm looking for my next Jester in a different color

This is one of several Jester backpacks I own, and I love this one more than the others, specifically for its colorway. The Jesters are comfortable and spacious, allowing you to carry all your small everyday belongings while on the go. It is my favorite of all The North Face backpacks.

Top pocket sucks

Cool but the top outside pocket isn't really useful and keeps opening down of you have too many things. It needs not to open all the way across

I would highly suggest this backpack for grades 6-12

We got this backpack for our high school freshman. After his first day of school, one of the first things that he told me that his new backpack was, "really nice." It is a really nice, quality backpack..we wouldn't expect anything less from your company. We love everything NorthFace.

See the bag in person, if possible.

The 2025/2026 backpack material quality has degraded. It is no longer thick. The material is thin and has a criss-cross pattern. The backpacks look cheap, frankly.

Too small for a back pack

Only reason why I gave it 4 stars is. It's way smaller than it looks in the pictures

Jester Backpack is no Joke

I purchased this backpack in two different colors for my HS Freshman and Jr. Both report that it fits all of their stuff and that it "feels sturdy" when they sling it over their shoulder and put it through the daily abuses of school life.

Not ideal for packing a lot

I purchased this bag to take to and from work (firefighter) and the front pocket is pretty floppy and things fall out easily. Great for school and laptop only, not ideal for traveling with gear.

Love this backpack!

This is a great backpack. The straps are comfortable when it's full. My daughter uses this for middle school and I have a black one I've used for different types of days and these are for sure my go to back packs!

From Campus to the Sahara - Enjoy College

By Teary-Eyed A.

I graduated from university 1.5 months ago and am currently packing up my hometown room to move to NYC. I just emptied out this backpack and I'm not embarrassed to say I got a bit emotional. For the past four years this backpack and a white baseball hat with my university's symbol on it followed me everywhere around campus and the world. Both possessions were beaten and battered but took it like a champ. If you're looking for a slim-profile backpack that can carry your laptop to class and (to...
