North Face Vault Backpack

The North Face Vault is a school backpack that's so much more than just a school backpack. And this season, with the help of some students, we've updated the Vault so it now includes double handles, is self-standing and has a slimmer profile, making commuting on packed trains a lot less of a hassle. The ultra-comfortable FlexVent™ suspension system with flexible moulded shoulder straps, a padded mesh back section and a breathable lumbar panel is still the same, though.

And the main compartment still has space for a couple of books and your laptop in a separate protective sleeve or a change of clothes if you're overnighting at a friend's. The front compartment has a padded tablet sleeve, zipped storage and space for pens and pencils. Plus, there are two external mesh pockets for water bottles. And you can cycle safely thanks to the strategically placed reflectors offering 360° visibility and by attaching a light to the bike light loop.
