Customer Reviews The North Face Borealis

I bought it for my sister as a gift, because she wanted one. Reality exceeded expectations. Very comfortable, beautiful and really well made!

Lots of pockets! Great for college campus walking and a good computer pocket! Very breathable.

I love it. I use it for everything and it makes everything feel so light. It's been a staple during my moving process, since I'm a college freshman moving into college dorms. 10/10 and I 100% recommend. I will say that the straps can be a little stiff but it's not that bothersome.

It was good

Steep price for what it is (like all North Face products) BUT it is good quality so far and my daughter loves it. Holds all her binders, book, water bottle for long school days. Obviously it would be good to use on hikes, outdoor usage as well. I like the deep gray color, looks black but it is a very dark gray.

It's perfect as a carry-on backpack and also works well for hiking or other outdoor activities. Plus, it looks great in photos!

I bought the backpack in the 'Black Patch' colorway, which is a bit more unique than the standard black version. The size is just right for me, but I probably won't use it for my daily commute. Instead, I'll choose it for travel. It's perfect as a carry-on backpack and also works well for hiking or other outdoor activities. Plus, it looks great in photos!

I use this product for school and I love the size, comfort and the organization. All of the different pockets work super well for all of my supplies and school necessities and I have been able to stay super organized! It fits everything great and the padding makes it super comfortable, even with all my books.

Great product! I use this bag for school, climbing, and hiking. No issues and it's super durable.

Laptop pocket is well-designed and functional, straps are comfortable, but front pockets make the pack a little top heavy

Bought this for my college freshman. She loves it! Perfect for all she needs to take to class, including snacks.

This bag held more water than my previous bag. I needed every drop and got me to the highest peak in Texas!

great backpack. did not like the multiple string shanging in the back, but was able to remove them so it was fine. It does not have a laptop sleeve.

I use this backpack for school and its a Great back pack. It can fit alot of things, it has big pockets and it doesn't really give that bulky look and the color way is cutee so i recommend this and NTF always have durable backpacks so it last a pretty good time :)

The bag it self is heavy a lighter would've been better. I'm the middle side transversely it's more narrower and compact there for I have push through it to put something all the way down.

My daughter uses it for college and loves the water resistance, the laptop space, and the ability to keep everything organized!

Great quality

Love it! Great quality

True to size and description. Will be using for short hikes in the mountains and for everyday commute.

We purchased the women's version last year and it was too small. The unisex version is just right. Pocket for laptop and 2 pockets for other smaller items like pens, calculators, etc. The North Face backpacks always last several years so they more than offset the cost.

I use it every day it's extremely comfortable great for walking around campus with all my stuff

Great backpack, i use it everyday and it holds everything i need and is extremely comfortable to walk around campus

I was a little leery about ordering online without seeing the item. I reviewed some of the reviews and decided to order. I was not disappointed. The quality is more than I expected. I purchased this for my granddaughter for school and it was a big hit! She was so excited and said it was exactly what she wanted. She also said it's so comfortable to wear and has lots of space. She also loves thats it's rain resistant. I highly recommend this item.

Very confortable and great design inside and outside.

I had an older Borealis backpack that lasted for years! And just got one less than a month ago from dicks and the zipper gets caught on poor design job. Extra fabric where the zipper gets stuck.
