This is my second north face backpack. Had the first one for 15 years and took it all over Europe. Love this product.

I love this backpack, I needed an upgrade for college and this does everything my old backpack couldn't, on top of that it is super comfortable even with a bunch of textbooks inside!

The North Face Recon Backpack exceeded my expectations. The quality and design are impressive, and it feels both sturdy and stylish. I especially appreciate the spacious compartments - it easily fits all of my school supplies, from textbooks to a laptop, without feeling too bulky. The organizational pockets also make it convenient to keep everything in place. Overall, this is a great choice for students who need a reliable and functional bag. I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a backpack that balances durability, comfort, and style.

I use it for school and to be honest my back feels way better and way more comfortable in ways I can only speak of and my previous backpack was tipping with all my textbooks this bag holds it like a champ.

Straps need to be thicker and the bottom needs to be thicker to protect the computer that I carry

Really good bag, I've had it for about 4 years. I use it for school which it works great for. Used it for some roadtrips, which it was a little small for some but still worth it. No big tears or damage other that a small hole in the front mesh pocket. Would recommend and would buy again.

I requested this as a gift a few years back after doing a lot of research into various backpacks and I have not been disappointed. I primarily use it as my bag to and fro work/my GHB but have also used it while traveling as my personal item. The big win for me was its water bottle sleeves on the side hold a 32 oz Nalgene PERFECTLY with enough stretch to accomodate it but little enough to hold it snuggly. Also the waterbottle sleeves coming up as high as they do is clutch, my last backpack had a short little bottle cubby and my Nalgene was constantly tipping out. Love the zipper pulls (a lot, please don't change them), love the sternum strap, the materials have held up well over 3 years of me lugging it back and forth 5 days a week, the laptop sleeve is very nice if you need one, the main compartment is spacious and holds a surprising amount of stuff, and the Recon is just very comfortable to wear and carry. The handle at the top of the bag has held up well and is comfortable to grab (small things build to big satisfaction). About my only critique (if you want to call it that) is the secondary compartment with all the little compartments for pens, pocket knife, keys, sunglasses, slash whatever floats your boat to put in them is a bit busy for my taste. I'd prefer a streamlined compartment with maybe one or two zippered compartments or nooks, but that's just personal preference.

I use it to go to work now; however, I intend to use it for other occasions. I really like the color, style, look, and material. I think it could be lighter.

I love this bag so much. I have one for work and when I use for my personal, I love the bungee cords. It's a perfect 28 L. The material is awesome. It feels like it's water resistant that waterproof which is fine. The cupholders are great and the bungees do his job so if you're looking for not too big that's too small solid 28 L and you're willing to spend a little bit more money check out the borealis you won't be sorry !

This bag is awesome. My only complaint is that my aluminum water bottle on several occasions has slipped out of the side pocket even though I have tightened the strap, its an average 24oz bottle, so in that regard it is not safe compartment unless you're okay with dents. I have no issues with the bottle holder with my Jester or Borealis both bags I have owned in the past.

I love this backpack. It is roomy, comfortable, sharp looking and sturdy. I have owned several other high-end backpacks and this one is the best.

Brought for my son to start his Freshman year in high school. Since they are only allowed at their lockers before and after school, he needed one with space but not so bulky and heavy. This one is perfect and no doubt will last him the whole year or even longer.

I use the Recon Backpack for my classes and it honestly fits my backpack perfectly. The build quality is amazing and I have no doubt that this will last far longer than I need it to.

My son will be using for high school and weekend adventures. He is pretty excited about the solid side pockets! Yep that is how long he used his last NF Recon backpack... they were mesh.
