Customer Reviews The North Face Borealis

This backpack is great. I appreciate all the compartments it has, especially the quick access at the front of the bag. I recently switched to a thinner reusable water bottle and I feel that it is too small for the side pockets. I also don't think it stands up the best which is why I give it a 4/5. Everything else is great, it looks great, fits everything as I am a medical student working long hours.

I use it for work, lunch and gym clothes. Just enough space and comfortable.

My son loves it! Comfortablely padded and makes room for all his books, devices and water as he walks through high school halls.

it is very good and versatile

All the bells and whistles! Bought it for my son for school and he loves it!

Very good book bag , lots of pockets

it's good but has one flaw which is the 2nd front pocket, it should be deep enough so that if it gets filled the bag doesn't look awkward. the thing is if you fill this bag with all your stuff it looks weirdly bloated from the top, since the top section has more space due to the front pockets. another con is that the bag cannot stand on its own whether it's empty or filled. it's just annoying. otherwise the bag is perfect to fit, light gym clothing+ shoes, tiffin, laptop, notebook and minor stuff in front pocket. ideal for school and commute, I like the side pockets too. and this colour looks nice.

Best bag for school

manly yes but I like it too! the black with white flashes is strong, sturdy, and user friendly

Great bag size and comfort is perfect

Fantastic. Good purchase.

Sturdy, stylish for teen boy, enough space for all school items with expandable belts. Thick shoulder straps. Not sure if lunch bag will fit inside! Haven't tried that yet! Looks like it will!

Very cute and well designed

Great, versitile backpack. Lots of room and very comfortable.

Its quality is great! Can't wait to wear it for my trips.

It's not white. It's light grey! It's perfect.

I use this backpack for school, and I love the unique color. The functionality is great!

I love the product because it fits everything in that is needed

What a great purchase! Really love this backpack - my favorite feature is the sturdy back panel which is great to help maintain good posture. I used this for travel recently and was a great carryon option (I didn't even need a purse/handbag).

I love this backpack. It's really good material and has a variety of colors. It's really spacious and very comfortable. I really recommend this product.

Good quality

Bought this backpack for school. It sits perfectly on my back and distributes weight well. I go to school in Montana and the waterproof material has held up well with all the snow. Not to mention, all of my school supplies fit perfectly in the many compartments. I would definitely recommend and buy it again. However, I doubt I'll need a new backpack soon with how well this one functions.

I use it for school and it holds everything I need plus more. I bought the old Borealis and I was annoyed that it didn't stand up, but I'm glad they fixed that with this model. I plan on going backpacking with it soon too. Best backpack I've owned.

I use this backpack for the gym and it's the best purchase I've ever made! Definitely recommend! My husband even loves it himself

Better than all the other backpacks I've tried out. Most bags I can tell when its full and heavy. This bag I have stuffed full and couldn't tell it was "heavy" or full. Enjoy the extra pockets and the hidden one up front.
