Customer Reviews The North Face Terra 55

Great for trip to Europe. Lots of space. Was pretty full but held up well.

Great for a two-week trip to Europe. Had plenty of space for all necessities. The top zipper pocket worked well for little things that could otherwise get lost.

Perfect size and weight for this beginner. The hydro sleeve is a nice touch. Wish the hydro bag would've been included or at least sold on the website though. Recently had breast surgery and this pack didn't cause any additional pain/irritation. The pink color is on the darker side but still very feminine.

Of course hiking. You can carry everything in this bag!!

This backpack is perfect for women. The size and design allows you hiking all day long if it is required. I love the arms with easy pockets for small stuff.

The light weight frame and design of padded straps and back support make this backpack a win for me. I recently had a breast reconstruction surgery and this pack is so comfortable. I'm new to hiking but this made me feel like a pro!

This backpack fits everything I need. I love the design with all the pockets and it is comfortable to hike in. Lots of straps on the outside make it easy to clip on any extra items. I will be using this for all my backpacking and camping trips!

Love the color, love that it has many ways to access your things inside. I like the bigger pockets on the straps that come around your waist, in others I found them to be too small to even put your phone but this one has space. I'm currently using it to backpack through Europe and it fits plenty of clothes. Fits in over head compartment of airplane.

Perfect pack! The side zipper is super convenient. I packed my and my kids clothes in it for 2 days of camping plus water bottles in each pocket. I got the smaller size as I am short and small frame and it is very comfy even when packed at capacity.

I took this backpacking and I got a lot of compliments on the trail! I love how roomie it is and the side zip that makes it easy to access everything. The only downside is my 3L blatter didn't quite fit inside but I made it work. It has tons of little pockets in the front to fit things like sunscreen chapstick and sunglasses. I wish there was a strap on the front for my hat when I'm not wearing it but overall I love this bag!!

loveee this backpack. super stylish and comfortable and fits everything and more you'd need for a 3 day trek. super beginner friendly, my one con would be the price but the quality speaks for itself.

used this backpack on my first backpacking trip and it exceeded my expectations. super comfortable and fits everything i needed and more!

My sister and I got these to use while backpacking Europe and they were amazing. Very sturdy, fit a lot of stuff with the help of packing cubes, and were comfortable to wear.

Great pack - well built and comfortable. Looking forward to using it all summer!

Very durable and fits perfect. Very easy to pack and you can fit a lot in it.

Longtime owner of Men's Terra 65 backpack. Has never let me down and has held up great for at least ten years now. Daughter has always wanted something similar, so when I saw the women's Terra 55, I immediately got her one. Love the side zip opening - no other pack comes close to the efficiency and convenience these packs provide. If you're on the fence regarding this pack, rest assured you won't regret it. Great pack and lasts forever.

I haven't taken it on a trip yet but I like it so far. It seems good quality, but we will see in a few months!

Great backpack! Happy with my purchase. I used this for a long distance hike and it was good. Lightweight, lots of additional strapping on the outside, felt robust and didn't show any signs of tearing. Loved the J-zip, easy access to the bottom of the backpack. Also looove the colour. Waist pockets could hold an iPhone 11 in one, and a little film camera or snacks in the other. I don't think they could fit a larger phone. The only design flaw I noticed (that affected me) is the support strap from the shoulder to the top of the backpack is only adjustable on one side, running across from right to left. If you want to tighten it, it puts a higher load on the right shoulder than the left making it uncomfortable. However it was generally fine when loose. Would be better if there were two separate support straps so it is adjustable on both sides.

This is a lovely and well-made pack but it cannot be adjusted for torso size (just for load lift). I'm torso 18-18.5, and S/XS was too small and M was too big. Previous Terra packs DID have torso adjustment, so this is a compromise--presumably to cut weight. Comfort/fit sacrificed for weight. Sorry to have to return it. Kudos to TNF for shipping and returns policy so I could try.

Buying from north face has been a major headache. I do not recommend this item.
