Perfect Everyday Backpack – Comfortable, Durable, and Smartly Designed!
I couldn’t be happier with my North Face Recon backpack. I use it daily for work and travel, and it’s hands-down one of the best backpacks I’ve owned.The laptop compartment is well-padded and fits my 15” laptop perfectly. There’s also plenty of space in the main compartment for books, clothes, or gear, plus a ton of smartly placed pockets to keep everything organized. The front pocket is great for quick-access items, and the fleece-lined pocket is perfect for sunglasses or a phone.The best part? It’s incredibly comfortable to wear, even when fully loaded. The padded straps and back panel provide great support, and the sternum strap helps with weight distribution. It also feels super durable—classic North Face quality.If you need a reliable, versatile backpack that looks good and performs even better, this is it. Highly recommend!

Awesome All-Around Backpack – Super Comfy and Worth It!
I love this backpack for school, the gym, the outdoors—basically everything. It works perfectly and I totally recommend it. Super comfortable to wear and definitely worth the price. The zippers work great, though I’d suggest tying them again for extra security. It’s really durable, especially for carrying your laptop or other electronics thanks to the hard-shell interior. Also gives great back support. Solid all-around bag! Plenty of pockets

Great EDC laptop bag
If you're using this as a simple EDC bag for a laptop, its pretty good. It fits a 15 inch laptop just fine. The durability would work if you're probably not putting it through the ringer. My commute really isn't too demanding, but for what it is, this bag is perfect. Enough room for a small jacket or hoodie and a lunch bag if you pack it right. I'd say its worth the money and the build quality is pretty strong. And I think it looks pretty good without being TOO tactical, and more urban cool, even with a name like RECON.

Quality backpack, worth the money
I used my old North Face Slingshot backpack for nearly 18 years, so it was time to upgrade. I always liked the design of the Recon and chose to purchase this backpack. I've never seen the navy backpack in person, but since it's my favorite color, I pulled the trigger. When I received it, I was surprised by how nice and sleek it looked. All the compartments were thoughtfully designed and are practical. The soft material they used for the interior of the front compartment is perfect for phones, glasses, and other things you want to keep safe. The backpack was bigger than expected, and is more than adequate to carry my everyday work items. The straps are comfortable and sturdy. The external fleece-lined pocket is a huge upgrade from my old Slingshot strings that could only carry clothes. I don't use the buckle straps, so it does look a little sloppy at times. However, you can adjust them so they're not in your way. The bottom of the backpack looks durable and it's very unlikely any holes will form in the future. Since my old backpack lasted so long, I'm confident this one will last longer. Overall, I think it's a quality backpack and I'm getting more than I paid for.

Many pockets and very good quality
Very nice the north face logo is very white and a little confusing because of all of the pockets but it’s very nice to have all of them. It’s very good quality and very durable. Pretty light weight. Definitely worth it

Excellent Purchase
I bought this backpack for my son this year and he loves it. It has plenty of compartments, the materials are durable and high quality, and most importantly, it doesn’t hurt his back when carrying all his high school essentials. Definitely a great purchase!

Great Choice
Awesome! Great quality, not too heavy, and lot of room for books, clothes, etc…My son loves it and he carries it all day at his high school because they don’t have lockers.
