Great backpack!
I used this backpack to pack all my essentials for a week camping trip on an island in Alaska. The pockets and compartments allowed me to stay organized and it held everything I needed. Loved the colors too.

Good for packing a lot of stuff
I really enjoyed being able to stuff a lot of items inside it without being too heavy. Also seems very durable. It might be priced a bit too high, but otherwise it's great for travel.

I was looking for the perfect bag for starting college and knew I wanted a North Face and also knew I'd be on Altrec because I buy all my North Face and Columbia jackets and gear from here. After reading tons of reviews on several different bags, I settled on the Recon. When I finally received it I immediately started using it to break it in for college. I must say I was nervous about the size, it didn't look as big as people hyped it up to be... However, I put my laptop, two pairs of shoes, a weekends worth of clothes, a big makeup bag, laptop charger, phone charger, hair straightener, and all sorts of other small weekend necessities inside. The bag just keeps on growing! Now, I have put my laptop, three 1 inch binders, all three of my textbooks (larger than average-Chemistry, and math and Psychology), other school supplies, two planners, and four supplemental reading books inside the bag for school and still have room to spare. The outside waterbottle holders are great. I put an umbrella on one side, just in case, and my waterbottle fits great in the other. I haven't had anything to put in the front mesh pocket yet, but think a pair of sandals, or shorts and a tee shirt would fit nicely. I am 5'1" and 108 lbs. and the bag fits me very comfortably. Lots of cushioning on my back and all the weight of the contents has yet to put any strain on my back. It actually feels good to wear the bag, as crazy as that sounds. I'm thrilled with my purchase and have no doubt that the quality and durability of North Face will get me through all five-six years of college that I need it for with tons of medical books and supplies. Thank you North Face for quality products and thank you Altrec for great prices! (:

Highly recommended
I got this bag because my work laptop is too heavy to carry over the shoulder any longer. My sister has this bag and loves it too. The bag actually fits my 17" laptop. There's not lots of room to spare, but it actually fits. When on my back it is so comfortable and soft. I love all the compartments and the two bottle holders on the side. Thee bag is spacious but not big and unmanageable. I would have given this bag Excellent for durability but the little loop at the top of the bag that you can use to pick it up with is not as sturdy in my hand as I want it to be with a heavy laptop in it. I highly suggest this bag!
