Customer Reviews The North Face Borealis

I purchased this bag as a carry-on for international travel that could also be used as a light daypack for hiking and climbing. Overall, it fits the bill quite well. The front compartments are useful for passports, chargers, headphones, etc.. The larger compartments can hold a change of clothes and larger electronics or cameras. The size fits perfectly under an airliner seat or in a small overhead compartment. As a daypack, it's not too bad. There is a hydration compartment and side pockets for food and gear. I added a pack cover for rainy days which fits well. For hikes of 3-5 hours, the straps are fairly comfortable. Construction and durability seem excellent.

Great color looks great holds a lot

My son loves it for college

Great backpack. really well made. Holds up to a lot.

My daughter needed a new backpack so bad! Oh man does she carry so much for being in JUST middle school. This backpack did the trick, and it's seriously so much better on her back.

This is a very versatile bookbag. These are very popular in school and I have been told to get one for months, so I did. I can completely understand the hype. There are so many pockets which is great for organization, and there are so many ways to adjust it to fit your needs with all of the straps. I'm going to use it for hiking after I'm done with school, as I KNOW it will last a long time.

I'm a college student and love this back pack and its laptop pocket is really nice

Daily getting around town backpack. This is my second time using this type of pack. The first one a TNF Recon lasted for years.

The bag is spacious. I use it for work because it fits my laptop perfectly and is spacious enough to store a decent amount of paperwork and books. Would highly recommend.

I love this backpack it's very nice and with a good quality.

I love this back pack I've had so many memories with it. I originally bought it for a school bag in senior year. Now I'm flying all across Alaska with it. durable, reliable, stylish. Thank you NF.

Loveeee this backpack, I'd been wanting it for a while and I wasn't disappointed.

I love it!

Took this on my trip to Austin back in October. Incredible plenty of space to act as your one bag. The quality and feel of the backpack is amazing, even when carrying 50 plus pounds it feels comfortable. The cherry on top is the ability for a water bladder.

Awesome backpack. Built to last.

Fantastic backpack! I walk everywhere and do not own a car so I carry a lot with me. This is the best bag I have had and looks great! Thomas Intrieri

Amazing quality & and very spacious.

Great school backpack for teenagers. Sturdy, good capacity

This bookbag is great and very comfortable. I use it in my university and it helps me keep everything I need.

Love this backpack so much I bought another one for my husband! Many different pockets, easy access to bottom of the pack. Very roomy and very comfortable to wear with expandable side pockets for different sized water bottles. Perfect for anyone!

My fourth grader and my seventh grader both love this backpack. Just bought black one for my son and my daughter's has held up and into its second school year. Love the separate spot for the electronics. It is big enough with a holder for water on the outside. The little pockets are great for organization

Love the punk look, made me finally sew other patches for the backpack from races and other interests outside of fitness.

The best

Great backpack! lots of space for everything you need

Bought this for my son for college. He absolutely loves it. He is able to carry his laptop and whatever books he needs with ease.
