      Comments about The North Face Jester Backpack:

      Got it for 6-year old as the cheap ones just keep breaking. This one should last well into middle school. A little big for now, but not too heavy or oversized. Comfortable and good padding. Very durable, well put together and sylish enough (red plaid) to keep him happy. Invest in a good pack.

        Comments about The North Face Jester Backpack:

        I bought this backpack to replace an older school backpack. However, there is no reason why it wouldn't also be great for day hikes. The two pockets on the side are ideal for water bottles and the backpack also includes hip and chest straps to help carry the load. I brought this backpack into my chiropractor and he fully endorsed the design and quality.

          Shipping was extremely fast, however I'm personally unable to rate the backpack since I purchased it as a Christmas gift for my grandaughter. It did look as though it was extremely good quality, and was very nice looking.

            I was looking for a less bulky backpack to carry my laptop and this bag is perfect - the straps are so comfortable! With only 2 compartments, there's plenty of room for my supplies/files.

                A:

                You can wash a pack, I would wash it in a tub or sink or with a hose. Air dry it with all zippers open.

                A:

                The Jester is made of coated materials, however the seams are not taped and the zippers will allow water in. The Jester is water resistant not water proof.
