The North Face Women's Metropolis Parka

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

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.

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.

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.

Great bag, we use it for medical EpiPens asthmatic pumps looks good though for my 12 year old daughter

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.

Great quality and great price

Finally caved for using a man bag when on holiday, this is a handy bag which can fit a lot in but doesn’t look massive on your body. There’s plenty of space in the main section, I was able to fit a power bank, electric portable fan, tissues, charging cable, earbuds, cash, plasters, sunglasses. There’s also a pocket on the back which is even harder to get to which is great for putting valuables such as passport, some cash or bank cards. The ties on the front are handy and will fit a typical 500ml bottle handy for carrying around in hot weather whilst keeping your hands free. The design is pretty minimalist allowing it to match most outfits too and is comfy to wear. It’s pretty lightweight and easily fits in my main bag when going through the airport to avoid fees for a second bag too.

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

Like it a lot

It’s so warm and comfortable and looks great too. Fits really well for a thick jacket. Perfect winter coat.

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.

Muy bonita
