North Face Jester Backpack
One of The North Face’s most popular backpack designs, the Jester is the perfect blend of outdoor design and urban functionality. At 27 liters the North Face Jester is a great choice for anyone who wants a lightweight backpack without the bulk.
When it comes to organization the Jester keeps it pretty simple with just two compartments. The main compartment is where you’ll find the padded 15” laptop sleeve and a second compartment features plenty of pocket to keep your essentials organized.
Note: The North Face face offers the men’s Jester and women’s Jester so that you can find the perfect fit. The women’s Jester is better suited for those with slimmer shoulders and shorter torsos.
What we like
Perfect size for daily carry with just the right amount of pockets.
Lightweight
Bungee is great for attaching a light jacket or hoodie without taking up space in the main compartment.
What we don’t like
The Jester is a good value for the price but it’s still a few steps down from the Borealis in terms of quality, construction and organization.
