Customer Reviews The North Face Recon Squash (Big Kid)

Very nice backpack

Bought the same version years ago for my son. Held up so well I bought another for my daughter. Adults carry it often and goes between both sizes well. Definitely recommend this for anyone interested. Holds gear on weekends and books and such throughout the week.

I use this product for my work stuff

I bought this back pack for my daughter because her jan sports back pack got broken the first day she used it.. And i was amazed by how durable and cute this bag look on her. when i told her i bought a bag for her and it wasnt the brand that she wants, she acted out at first but when she saw this one she was very happy.. Northface is a life saver

So pretty...good size for my son ...9 years old... I like it..

Great backpack for 2nd graders, everything fit. My daughter is extremely happy from the backpack, looks durable enough to hold for many years.

This bag is the perfect size for my small child who has an adult sized load of books to carry to and from school. Adult sized bags are too small, and most kid sized bags didn't have the ergonomic design and the shoulder clip. I would love a waist strap as well.

My daughter uses itfor 1nd grade. It fits her perfectly. We actually bought a smaller one for kindergarten and first grade and got something slightly bigger for 2nd. She wasn't happy with the "other brand" we bought. It wasn't comfortable. So we came back here and bought her another backpack that we will use for 2 or more years. The backpack is super comfy, just enough room for her lunchbox, snack,take home folder, a sweater and small toy. And her favorite color is pink. You can't go wrong!

Purchased this for my son in PreK and Purchased a different one last year for my daughter in 2nd grade. It is so lightweight and a great size for what they need for school. Perfect for their size. It holds school folder, lunch cooler and 1-2 library books and snack in the front pocket. And it has the water bottle holder which is also great. It won't hold much else though, but it's all they need. Gotten lots of complements.

My daughter loves this backpack, especially the color.. She's a petite 8 year old and it fits her really well. It has plenty of room for her school folders, books, and lunch. Also great on long hikes.

I bought this bag for my daughter that is in third grade and it was too small so I gave it to my nephew who is in kindergarten which was perfect and Zappos' customer service team are always so very nice and helpful. Thanks, Zappos!

Bought this cute little backpack for my six year old granddaughter and she really loves it! She said, "I don't have to just use it for school do I?" Yep, she likes it! Score for Nana!

Love this backpack! Perfect size for my daughter in kindergarten. Well made, very strong, great design with foam back support, chest strap, compartments. She loves it and so do I. I know it will last for years. She could probably use it until 3rd grade.

Love the color. Has enough space for my sons school supplies.durable, I don't have to buy a backpack every year.

Very comfortable my nephew loves this bookbag he's in the 1st grade and it's the perfect size for him and he feels like a big boy when he wears it

Excellent

I bought this for my daughter who just started kindergarten. I love this backpack. It is very stylish and durable. I bought her a similar one 2 years ago when she started pre-school and we still have it, but I wanted a new one for her this year. They are very durable and last a very long time.

This child-sized backpack caught my eye as the perfect on-the-go bag. It's small enough to not be cumbersome or bulky, but large enough for everyday needs such as a wallet, a Nalgene, a notebook, etc. My favorite feature is that the back and strap padding is NOT the plush mesh padding that is prevalent on most backpacks now. That mesh material pills all my shirts. The smooth padding on the Recon Squash is PERFECT. Note that the mesh side pockets are not large enough for even a 32 oz. Nalgene, but they are perfect for keys and my glasses case.

I bought this for my youngest daughter who just turned 6 and was starting kindergarten. It is the perfect size...big enough to hold a thin binder or a folder but not a huge backpack taking over her whole body. She loves her new big girl backpack and I am glad because I have to say it's a lot cuter and much better quality than the character backpack she would have picked out.

Bought this for my 6 year old in the 1st grade and he loved it. If you're looking for a backpack for school use, this will probably be too small for any child in the 5th grade and beyond. Great design.

the color is very nice and comfortable my son loves his bag. the bag is perfect for his age group going on second grade.

This bag serves the purpose I needed. I wanted a backpack that is not too bulky and big but have enough space for the things I needed when I travel around the campus. And it fits my laptop as well along with other things I carry around. In addition, the color and design of the bag received lots of compliments while I travel with it.

My kids loved it! Perfect size for my 1st grader.

Great product

I bought this for my 2 year old son for preschool! It is just the right size for him! It is so cute and I cannot wait for him to try it out! Thank you Northface for your amazing products! You never disappoint me!
