This color is really nice!!

I usually only wear black, but I fell in love at first sight with this backpack! The moderately brown color that isn't too bright is exquisitely cute! The size is just right! I'm glad I bought it on sale ^ ^

Favorite

Even with heavy items and wearing the backpack for a long time, it doesn't tire me.
It's very convenient to use, so it's been very useful.

For travel

I’m short, so this neat backpack feels really nice.
It holds a lot. It doesn't stand on its own, but I love how neat it looks when I wear it.

For commuting

I use a larger The North Face backpack for outdoor activities, but I purchased this one for commuting as it is durable. Even though I am short, it settles nicely on my back.
The depth is advantageous, and it holds more than it appears, which is a plus. It has become my favorite backpack!

For a one-night stay in summer

I bought it for a one-night summer trip. The bag itself is really light, and it was comfortable to carry.

Compact

The size fits snugly against the back, so I recommend it for short people. The capacity is small, so it doesn't hold much, but I can fit a lunch box and a makeup pouch, so it's not a problem.

The form is cute, and the color is beautiful!

This is my first North Face bag. It's a compact size that uses up about 2/3 of the capacity with a 500ml plastic bottle, glasses case, and a long wallet. I was also considering the slightly larger 22L, but I decided on this 16L because I felt that the round shape was kept better.
What I like is that the logo on the back and shoulder straps is the same color, so it's not too casual and has a grown-up feel. The material also has a luster like Cordura nylon, which gives it a sense of luxury!

Gift for my wife

I stopped by the store while traveling to Kamakura. I was looking for a backpack that is light, durable, and not too big or too small, and this one was perfect.

Lightweight!

I bought it immediately since it was on sale. Since it is 16 liters, it can be used by women with fewer belongings, regardless of occasion. Personally, I think it's enough. There are vertical mesh pockets on both sides where I can store an umbrella and a water bottle, so it should be very handy for the upcoming season.

Dress up your everyday life

I bought it so I could carry my hands free as my child has started walking. Thanks to the front buckle, it's easier to carry, and the product itself is light and easy to use! Even with fewer belongings, the shape of the backpack doesn't change, making it versatile for any scene. My favorite point is the color. It matches easily with any outfit! I'm glad I found my favorite.

Easy to use

I bought it to coordinate with my North Face sneakers.
It's stylish, looks good, and doesn't bulk up when wearing winter down jackets; it also fits well with summer light clothing, so I can use it all year round.
I mostly use it, but I share it with my husband.

Light and easy to handle

I purchased it for travel carry-on.
The 16L capacity is small but can fit the essentials, and it's light, so it's convenient for everyday use as well. The simple design is good because it doesn't clash with any clothing.

For hiking and everyday use

I have been using The North Face backpacks since my student days, but after a while, I switched to a business backpack and have returned again. I feel that the load on my shoulders has decreased compared to before. I've also enjoyed hiking. I can't imagine being without it for a while.

It might be a bit difficult to use.

I bought it as a secondary backpack for travel, but I felt that the shape was a bit unstable and not very usable.

Just the right size

I thought the 16L backpack was a bit small, but it fits my iPad mini in the thick part on the back. It can hold a lunch box, a water bottle, and small items fit in the pockets, so my stuff is distributed and I can use it without losing its shape. Also, the shoulder straps can be fixed at the front, so it fits nicely and feels light.

The one I wanted

I bought it because I wanted a size like this for days when I have fewer belongings.
Now I want a slightly larger backpack.

Easy to use

It's on the lighter side and not too big, so it’s just right for daily use.
I rarely find a backpack with a bright inner color, so I finally found one that is easy to use, and I appreciate it.
I'm considering buying a lighter-colored version for summer.
