Yes I would buy again

I bought my daughter a recon 6 years ago for college. It's still going strong. Decided to get one for my laptop for work. They have changed some but it's been great. Use it everyday for work. I've even emptied the work stuff out of the bag and used it as a day pack on a few hikes and used it as a carry on while flying. I bought it 3/2021, it's now 1/2022. After reading the negative reviews about the bag not wearing well or falling apart, I had to put up a positive review. I'm glad I overlooked those reviews and gave it a try. If things change I'll be back with an update.

Slightly flawed main pocket

Great pocket space and overall comfortable to carry. My biggest issue is when you fill the front pocket that is made for accessories and pens, it is then difficult to reach in the main compartment.

Sturdy and stylish

Great backpack to take on a hike or as a personal item that fits under the seat while traveling. Ample space and pockets!

I would buy this product again.

Great backpack for work and small travels. I love the small storage compartments it is very useful. I'm disappointed with the 2021 update on the backpacks. I really enjoy this old design.

Trying as a school backpack

My son loves the color, hopefully it will work out for school for him. He is in the fourth grade and hopefully won't have to carry a ton of stuff as this backpack doesn't seem like it'll hold too much. It looks very strong and sturdy

Not what I expected, but great quality

I purchased this for my 7th grader to use as his school backpack. It doesn't hold as much as I thought it would. The backpack is deeper than it is wide which makes it somewhat awkward for trying to lug around a lot of school stuff. We'll see how it'll work as a school backpack, but the quality is definitely there!

Solid backpack.

Great backpack great quality and looks great. Not the most storage space but I love the pockets and how easy they are to access things. Only thing I don't like about this backpack is that it does not stay upright when I place on the ground.
