THE NORTH FACE Berkeley Daypack, TNF Black/Mineral Gold, One Size

I purchased this for my 4.5 year old daughter to use for school. I wanted a separate flat compartment for papers (she has homework this year); a large compartment for her lunchbox, sweatshirt, etc.; at least one small compartment for miscellaneous treasures; and a water bottle pocket that was not mesh (the mesh always tears). It was impossible to find a kid's backpack with a separate compartment where her papers wouldn't get smashed when she crammed other things into her backpack. And this was the smallest backpack I could find anywhere that met my criteria. It's really well made, has not gotten dirty despite the light-colored fabric and bottom, and actually fits her fine (although she's big for her age). It would be a fine size for an adult too--I like it so much I would use it myself!

I’ve been a big fan of The North Face product line for years. Their jackets and coats hold up beautifully and really stand the test of time. Well, this adorable little backpack is no exception. It’s stylish and very well made, plus it holds a shockingly large number of items while still being light enough to easily and comfortably carry. (I have a 4 level 360 lumbar fusion and I can’t carry much weight, 5-10lbs max.) I bought this bag for a recent Alaskan Cruise and it was perfect. I was able to fit my entire medium sized purse inside, along with my Nintendo switch, a paperback book, a light jacket, my water bottle and quite a few snacks. This is now my go to travel backpack for every occasion. If you are on the fence, buy it! You won’t be disappointed.

Perfect size for air travel — no unnecessary pockets, straps, lash points, etc. I’m not climbing Everest.

I’m in love with this backpack! 😍 It’s super comfortable for my back, easy to wear, and looks so stylish. The size is perfect—not too big, but still fits everything I need. Highly recommend if you want something practical and nice

Bit small

I ordered 2 of these as personal items for me and my husband on an international trip. We both really enjoy these backpacks, and now mine is used as a daily use diaper bag/ daypack. I keep my kids water bottles in the side pockets. Warning: ater bottles will fall out if you bend over while wearing the backpack! I read a review that says it's too small. In my opinion, that's the point of this bag. Simple, well constructed, and small enough to fit under the airplane seat but can still hold what you need when thoughtfully packed. I do wish it had a Keychain leash but can't win em all, especially at this price. I love mine.

This is a well made backpack. Pretty color blue. It’s not large. Fits my 15.5 in laptop and some note books and file folders. It would not be a good choice for a kid that carries all their books with them. It’s a good travel size as I take it to and from work every day. Comfortable on my shoulder.

It has an excellent quality, and very stylish.
