Review on ๐ŸŽ’ Recon Backpack in TNF Black by The North Face by Bryan Turner

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Space for almost everything and with comfort

Excellent backpack. I repurchased these [trade to replace my NorthFace Borealis. what was stolen. I have had a Borealis for 12 years and have used it in grad school and on day trips. He was still in good shape. The Recon is slightly larger and has more padding specifically for your laptop, protecting it better than the Borealis. The shoulder strap is sufficiently padded and there is a front buckle on the chest. There is flexible ventilation at the back which is more rigid and creates ventilation between the back and the pack, keeping the back cool. The Recon also has more space. It has pretty much everything (equipment and snacks) you need for a day out. Since my Abitur is long over, I mostly use the backpack for day hikes or mountain biking. My bike helmet fits perfectly in the front stretch pocket (when I'm not riding), and I can easily carry water bottles in the side pockets. Whether for transporting books and laptop to school or for a trial day, you will be satisfied. It's also very convenient when you fly.

Pros
  • Lots of positive emotions
Cons
  • The cord is shorter than other sets
