  • My uber picky law school student husband’s final pick.
Color: Tnf Black/Tnf Black Size: One Size
My husband has been in school 90% of his lifetime, another 10% at highly discreet engineering industry that required him to bring all sorts of stuffs in the bag including 2 laptops, chargers, extra shoes, books, water bottle, food, miscellaneous items. He was a super nerd since childhood. Now he’s starting law school. He is therefore extremely picky and particular regarding all his items. Bags must be practical and convenient, with promising durability. This bag was the final pick and it became one of the rare items that i bought for him that i got a nice comment on. When it arrived, he admired and played with it like a child with a new toy for 1 full hour, and another 30 minute on internet researching about this bag and other competitors bags to revalidate his choice. ... show more

  • Lasts FOREVER
I spend the money on Northface backpacks for my kids because they last forever and have all the right pockets. Get it.

  • Current Recon NOW has durable fabric for water bottle pockets
Background. I bought a North Face Recon backpack in 2020. Traveled with it nearly every day. But after the first year, the fabric for the water bottle side pockets ripped, making it impossible to carry water bottles. I considered trying to repair the holes but didn't feel confident in that option. I evaluated packs by other brands. Went down to the sporting goods store and tried 'em out. Nothing satisfied me. In particular, I have grown very accustomed to the Recon's organizational arrangement of pockets and sleeves. I wasn't finding this pattern in other packs. I was happy to see that the current version (summer 2023) of the Recon pack NOW has durable fabric for the water bottle pockets. They replaced the flimsy elastic mesh fabric with sturdy nylon/polyester fabric. This new fabric feels heavier than the fabric that is used for the main body of the pack. Although I have only used the pack for a single day so far, I have a good feeling that this pack is going to last a few years longer than my previous Recon pack. ... show more

  • Great back pack. Love it
Color: Tnf Black/Tnf Black Size: One Size
It has a relatively low profile but plenty of room for laptop, notebooks , gym clothes and 2 water bottles pouches. It feels very durable with high quality zippers. I don’t buy things just for the name brand but I needed a quality pack for everyday carry and North Face gear has always served me well. I expect to get several years use out of this pack. ... show more

  • Fits a 17in laptop with ease
This fits my MacBook Pro with ease and plenty of extra space for clothes or books or a lunch. The water bottle holders are roomy and secure. I like that there are three smaller front pockets for extra small items.
