The North Face Jester Daypack

Well, everyone. That is the North Face gesture backpack, it's got huge capacity, it's got a lot of organization, it's made of good materials and it al...

as is a little bit better. The water bottle pockets are more robust, so everything is just a little bit better on that bag.

Definitely some great design and it's a quick day bag.

I don't think it will be full, so maybe it could squish down into an overhead bin or under the seat? I definitely would like to have a carry on because unfortunately, I will have several connections and don't want to risk losing it. My only other backpack is a North Face Jester which I use for every day commuting to work. I think I would be able to fit everything if I packed wisely.

At 20L the Daypack is an excellent minimal EDC or carry-on bag, which features minimal aesthetic and a basic but more than sufficient harness system. Thanks to the moderately padded shoulder straps and the high-quality mesh used on the back panel for improved breathability, I had no issues with the comfort. My wife, who used the bag to carry parental essentials, also enjoyed the small and nimble profile of the Daypack and praised its overall comfort.

I saw a review of this bag on Pack Hacker's YT channel and the reviewer noted that she wore the Daypack in pouring rain and nothing inside got wet. I don't believe that TNF's other, more popular bags like the Recon or Borealis are as water-resistant frankly.
