About the The North Face Recon Backpack
The North Face Recon Backpack is the best choice if you need to carry a seriously big load while running. It is made of a custom injection-molded shoulder strap and has reflective accents for added night-time visibility and 360-degree reflectivity. With around 30 liters of space, it still makes carrying all that stuff manageable with its wide, padded shoulder straps and a ventilated, padded pack panel.
