The North Face Recon Backpack

The internal organization of this backpack is very good. I use each of the compartments every day. I really like the admin compartment and the external mesh pocket. The laptop compartment accommodates a 16-inch laptop with extra room. This bag is weather resistant, I walk 2km each day and have not had water enter any of the compartments. The water bottle compartments are very deep and can hold a medium coffee tumbler and 32oz water bottle. I find that when using the compression straps, the excess strapping flaps around, I manage them with some black rubber bands. The bag does not stand up under its own weight, but this is not an issue for my daily life. I hang it on a bag hanger at home and work.
