Customer Reviews The North Face Borealis

Perfect for my son in high school

Strong, durable, and spacious!

Got this as my college bag pack! Couldn't choose which color since all the colors are just really nice but I ended up getting the olive green one! It's a really nice backpack for college students , it's well organized!

Great backpack, great material, back support

Bought this backpack at the beginning of freshman year of college. Functioned pretty well, honestly - had the space for all my textbooks and notebooks, laptop, laptop accessories, etc. and was pretty comfy to wear. Could even stuff my lab coat and goggles in for lab days, or take everything out and stuff in a change of clothes for spending a night at a relative or a friend's. Would be a simple 5-star review...if it wasn't the beginning of junior year and I'm waiting for the backpack to fail any day. One of the straps is almost entirely worn through, and it's to the point where I'm concerned about wearing it on my back. If you won't need a backpack in two years, buy this backpack and it'll do you fine. If you'll need one in two years, then look somewhere else. Also, it's rather telling that I was basically told "you can't submit this review unless you turn off adblock" and once I turned it off, my entire screen was filled with an advertisement begging me to buy another backpack.

This backpack has exceeded my expectations!! It is super light with the perfect amount of compartments. Great to use with or without a laptop or Chromebook. I would definitely highly recommend this backpack.

This backpack is very spacious, perfect for back to school. So many pockets!Fits everything nicely. Water resistant perfect for keeping the inside dry. Laptop compartment is padded for protection.

This product is perfect for back to school. so many pockets and very spacious. my favorite part is the laptop pocket that has padded protection to it. Also water resistant, amazing quality

This back pack is so great and super versatile. Can be used for school, hikes, travel etc. The color is so cute. I would give it ten starts if I could.

This backpack had way more storage than I expected! Initially bought it for travel, I also use it for weekly stays at my boyfriend's place. Before I would need two bags to pack all the clothes I wanted to bring, but not only does this bag fit all my clothes into one bag it also fits my laptop while STILL leaving room to put extra miscellaneous items. I LOVE IT!!!

Every couple years, we let our kids get a new backpack this one! We all love the Borealis! Such great quality! Tons of space and pockets!

We have been using this exact same backpack for years! Our kids get a new one every few years for school! You just can't beat the quality. So many things are just not made well. This is definitely not one of those things.!

We have been using the Borealis backpacks in our house for years and we love this one just like all the others we have had! So many pockets and great quality!

My daughter was so excited to finally get her NorthFace backpack! Great size for a seventh grader!

Super excited for my son to use this for his senior year!

I use this fantastic backpack to take everything I need to get through the day at school! Not only does it safely secure my iPad for class, it also holds multiple notebooks and folders. This along with my pencil bag, soccer gear and personal items to touch up during the day leaves me beyond thrilled with my purchase!

Love it. Use it for traveling. Plenty of room, lots of organization spaces. This is my second one, wore the first one out. Just wondering why there are only unisex and women"s versions?

The backpack is useful for not only school but camping and traveling!

Backpack is nice, but not as roomy as i would have hoped for my 11 year old.

Great size. Bigger than the Jester.

Awesome product, build quality is 5 stars love the padding on the back helps for caring a lot of heavy stuff in the bag pack

Love the backpack

This backpack's quality is excellent, and it would be my top choice for any K-12 student. However, the text material on the front foam might not hold up well over time, and the zipper rubber handles feel a bit sticky. It would be better if the hold material were made of metal instead. The mountain patch inside the bag is an excellent added detail. The elevated computer compartment is a great feature, as it helps prevent laptop damage if the bag is dropped.

Very satisfied with my purchase!

Its a great backpack and pretty versatile! Has good wear and tear too
