Backpacks and rucksacks for every day
A good backpack earns its place by disappearing on your back so you can focus on the day ahead. The North Face builds every rucksack to that standard, whether the load is a laptop and a packed lunch or three days of kit above the snowline. The range runs from compact daypacks for school and commuting to expedition carries with hip belts and compression straps. Durable fabrics, reinforced stitching and reliable zips keep contents secure across thousands of uses. If you need a pack shaped for technical terrain, start with men's backpacks for trail-ready fits and load-bearing support.


Comfort that holds up under weight
Weight is not the problem. Badly carried weight is. Padded, ventilated back panels and adjustable shoulder straps shift the load onto your hips and off your shoulders, stopping a long walk from turning into a long complaint. Larger rucksacks in the 45 to 65 litre range add hip belts and load lifters so contents stay stable on uneven ground. Smaller packs use the same ergonomic principles at lighter volumes, keeping notebooks, water bottles and tech organised. For multi-day routes, women's backpacks sit on their own frame geometry rather than being the same pack in a different colourway.


Waterproof rucksacks for British weather
British weather rarely gives notice, so every backpack in the range is built with that in mind. Water-resistant fabrics, coated finishes and protected zips keep the inside of a rucksack drier than the outside of you. A waterproof backpack means the laptop, the map and the spare layers come out in the condition they went in. For younger explorers heading to school or on family hikes, kids' backpacks bring the same weather protection in smaller, lighter builds.


Find the right pack for your journey
Choosing a rucksack comes down to how you carry. Torso length, strap shape and capacity all change how a pack rides, so pick by use rather than looks. Daypacks suit commutes and short hikes. Mid-volume packs handle weekends away. Large expedition rucksacks carry everything for multi-day treks. Each product page includes sizing details so you can match the pack to your frame.
