When it comes to your hiking gear and school work, The North Face Jester Backpack isn't joking around. The main compartment should be large enough to fit all your textbooks, and there's a secondary compartment for your hiking gear so you don't turn in a bag of trail mix instead of your final paper. The Jester also features a padded sleeve that fits most 15-inch laptops, and mesh side pockets give you space for your water bottles. The breathable FlexVent shoulder straps stretch at your every move, and the air-mesh back panel provides the cushioning and breathability you need whether you're biking the city or hiking a trail.
