If you have a North Face outlet nearby, this is the normal price and they usually have better colors.

They claim there's a male version and female version but there's no selector for it.

It doesn't matter too much, but apparently it affects the position and comfort of the straps when wearing for a long time.

Just on a note for school use, the jester isn't really wide enough to be fully loaded with binders, books, and water bottles. My kid tore through the mesh water bottle holders in a couple months from being stretched out just using Owala size bottles.
