Question: what is the difference between the north face backpacks?
Answer: When you compare The North Face Recon vs Borealis backpack models, the Recon is 19.25 x 14 x 9.5 inches and has a 31-liter capacity, while the Borealis is 19.75 x 13.5 x 8.5 inches and holds only 28 liters. ... It also only has a 26-liter capacity, so holds less. This doesn't make it the least useful, though.
