The North Face Jester

The North Face Jester is a back pack offered by The North Face which was the highest-ranked (and recommended) backpack by 2009 Consumer Reports’ Reviews. It has a large main compartment capable of handling a couple text books or binders and also includes a front accessory zip pocket with an internal organization sleeve to stash smaller items while you’re on the road. The criss-cross bungee cords on the frong give an excellent place to store a rain jacket or other awkward items such as a wiffle ball bat. The stitched foam back panel and removable hipbelt ensure a comfortable and secure fit. Other features include mesh water bottle pockets on each side, a large reflective patch for nighttime visibility, and a carry handle. The North Face Jester is available in a wide range of colors.
