Women's Metropolis Parka

Not a parka as per the description, it’s a shoulder bag. Used it on holiday. Held my phone, passport and money with loads of room to spare. Stylish and nice colour.

I used it as a carry-on bag for a trip to New Zealand and could not be happier. It is a good size and collapsible and therefore can stretch to fit more or be compacted to fit more comfortably into tighter spaces. It is able to carry a 15" laptop in the laptop sleeve and is still spacious enough to fit in other clothing items, shoes or other electronic items. There are two zipped compartments, one large main compartment with the padded laptop sleeve, and a smaller front compartment also containing various sized pockets for pens and other items. It seems ideal for use commuting, travelling, at school and undertaking outdoor activities such as hiking. The straps and back of the rucksack are padded and extremely comfortable when walking and carrying for long periods of time or for long distances. The zips are large and of high quality which suggest it will handle general wear and tear very well. I also considered the karrimore urban rucksack as a cheaper alternative but found the material of the bag and zip of a much lower quality and susceptible to rips. I therefore chose the more expensive North Face bag and I believe I made the right choice and am extremely pleased with my choice. Highly recommended.

Love it It’s the perfect work bag Fits so much and there’s so much space The colour goes with any outfit it’s water proof and easy to wipe in case it gets dirty. I can also use it as a bag pack if needed ( however it only works well if there’s no too much stuff inside the bag) otherwise it gets uncomfortable as a bag pack

Men's bag? This is a nice bag, bit on the expensive side but spacious, functional and can carry it different ways. It's not specifically a men's bag though, that's daft.

Waited a bit to write the review.. I’ve had this bag for ages now. The zips are still working perfectly. It’s strong. No rips or little cuts, straps are comfy and the bag has some nice hidden compartments. Perfect for long weekends away and short holidays. It’s a solid bag, would defo recommend. Worth noting you you can use this for carry-on luggage too.. the dimensions are just right

I bought this backpack for day to day use, carrying my laptop, textbooks and notepads. For this purpose, it is great - it is very comfortable to wear, even when it is packed full with everything I need to carry. The materials feel like they are good quality, and the backpack feels like it will last a long time. The handle on the top of the bag is well made, and the straps are very comfortable and never feel like they're digging in. The flexvent is very comfortable on the back, and makes the bag very easy to wear. The backpack itself is a little larger than I had expected, so it will probably not suit smaller people, but it felt about the right size for myself. The laptop sleeve worked well for my Dell XPS 15 inside its inateck sleeve, but I can't speak for other laptops. There is a fair amount of space in the backpack, but I have found that the positioning of the top outside pocket, although convenient for quick access, makes it hard to pack the rest of the bag when it is full. This is because, when full, the top pocket protrudes into the main compartment, narrowing the space at the top to put things into the bag. This is especially the case when a laptop is also in the laptop compartment. However, as long as the top outside compartment is not overly full, it is still relatively easy to have access to the main compartment. Overall I would recommend this bag to taller people who need to carry a fair amount of things comfortably.

I had to send it back because it was just that little bit too small But the bag itself was good quality and well-made For the size it was so I should give it five stars And I would definitely recommend it.

The perfect little bag - can fit a water bottle, an extra layer, some food. Ideal for city exploring!

Got this for my daughter for back to school. She loves it!

Great backpack. Has plenty of space and compartments for any necessary items for a busy day on campus. The best daypack I have ever purchased. Also works great for short day trips and/or hikes. As a student and researcher I have to carry a number of things with me each day including a laptop, several books, planner, food, pens/pencils, portable charger, iPad, and other small items. The North Face Recon is a great bag to keep all items organized while looking extremely stylish. Materials are very durable and have served me well for about 7 months so far. Looking forward to keeping this bag throughout the rest of my undergraduate studies and also into medical school.

They managed to engineer some great features that are only found in 120$+ backpacks. Pockets for sunglasses, double bottle holder, straps galore, carabiner holes, incredible front pocket which stretches enough to fit some of my jackets (this should be in more backpacks), reflectors,roomy laptop pocket(could probably fit a 23 inch laptop), a F*** whistle (lol), plastic material on the bottom to prevent it from getting soaked when laid on the ground, zippers feel premium. Most comfortable back pack I've worn, the padding is nice and plushy-stiff (if that makes sense). Areas for improvement: The organization from inside the pockets could be miles better, it just passes as okay. There isn't enough padding at the bottom of the laptop pocket for my liking, I would recommend having a laptop sleeve. Back pack doesn't sit upright when placed on the ground. You won't find a better backpack for the price.

Dopo settimane di ricerche, video su youtube e recensioni varie mi sono convinto a prendere questo zaino. Che dire, è perfetto per tutto. Io lo uso quotidianamente per andare a lavoro ma lo utilizzo anche per viaggi, sessioni fotografiche, montagna, moto, ecc ecc. Un tutto fare strepitoso, con ottima qualità costruttiva e uno spazio dedicato a tutto quello che serve. Anche quando viene appesantito molto risulta comunque comodo e ben bilanciato sulla schiena, senza dare fastidio alle spalle. Unica piccola pecca è la maniglia che non è imbottita come i precedenti modelli ma direi che è una cosa più che trascurabile.
