The North Face Jester Daypack vs The North Face Surge Pack - Women's

We have the North Faces flex vent suspension system, which includes a heavily padded and mesh back panel, heavily padded, a mesh shoulder straps with ...

I have had this North Face Recon backpack for two years and it still feels and looks like new. I believe this is a must if you are looking for a new backpack while in college. Not only should it be a backpack that you feel comfortable carrying around but also a backpack that you know will last you a long time. Any college student will like this because of its easiness to stay organized, its redesigned suspension for all day support, and quick access to side pockets to either hold your belongings such as keys or water bottle

Frankly, I was a bit concerned about the comfort of the Mainpack especially with the Daypack attached (after all, it makes an already large bag gigantic). However, I’m happy to report that the design of the shoulder straps (which also feature load lifters), coupled with an excellent back panel, sternum strap, and a beefy waist belt make for a surprisingly comfortable carry, even over an extended period of time.

So if you are a high schooler who does not bring a ton of textbooks, it should work for you. - Ths shoulder straps on this backpack are hard. When completely full and heavy this backpack hurt my back and shoulders. It especially made my neck muscles tighten

I don't think it will be full, so maybe it could squish down into an overhead bin or under the seat? I definitely would like to have a carry on because unfortunately, I will have several connections and don't want to risk losing it. My only other backpack is a North Face Jester which I use for every day commuting to work. I think I would be able to fit everything if I packed wisely.

So you can see what i mean uh here. We are here's the main compartment and also with the zippers. You know you have these nice long and wide zipper pu...

Looks good but holds only laptop and a few other things. Not big enough for books and school binders. disappointed.

The other thing they change though is that the zipper doesn't go as low as the previous version, so that means you just can't open it as wide. but it'...

I don't believe they're Ykk I think they may be Sbs zippers and they're very smooth. It's easy to open the bag up, but they're almost too smooth, if t...

It's not fleece and it feels like this one. Yeah, it's It's the same size and you see the zipper. It's got a nice color on it like a rose gold gold zi...

As some of the other reviews mention, the backpack will not sit up because the stiff back is so tall. It leans forward and then falls over. There is only one "big" compartment and one very small half-compartment on the front, so it's not possible to stay organized with all of the little things that kids need to carry to school these days. Regarding the "big" compartment, it's not truly big

If you place your bag down. You can kind of see this starting to slide out in this compartment. On the left. I just placed a little manicure set that ...

Nice looking backpack just not practical for a college student. It's not big enough to pack books in addition to laptop & any other items you may need for the day. The biggest issue was this is not in any way water resistant. College students are walking on campus rain or shine didn't realize there would be no protection at all & arrive to class with paper homework wet & an English book's pages all damp too

Also I don't think you're going to be fitting a soccer ball in the front mesh pocket anytime soon.

sounds like the latest full-sized pickup truck on the market! No, no, I’m referring to The North Face Jester backpack, a sleek and sturdy sidekick for any tech-savvy Urban Hiker. With its variety of compartments and well-crafted materials, not only is it ready for the commute around town, but it effortlessly carries the load for that post-work sunset trek. All without putting a cramp on your wallet

However, this pack is so comfortable and practical and I use it for college, my day camp job, and for day hikes. It has been a lifesaver for my back having two straps, especially when I'm carrying lots of water and/or books. I love the laptop sleeve for my macbook; it feels very secure and safe if I knock into something with my pack. The two water bottle holders are convenient and hold a nalgene which is really important to me

They reduced some of the quality of the materials, but I think this is still a great option. We'll talk about the materials as we route run through th...

I use this backpack for to and from work. It is useful because I can put my laptop in there are it feels safe from spilled drinks/food. It has a comfortable fit, although if you don't like the box feel of a backpack then I wouldn't recommend this product. I recently had the North Face recon for 12 years and that was my favorite backpack
