Customer Reviews The North Face Borealis

The bag felt comfortable resting on my back and it has a lot of compartments which I can add a lot of stuff. It looks really good and matches the picture. It's the best backpack I've had so far. It's came in a box protecting it. It was not rolled up. It's also pretty heavy, showing the quality.

Good Quailty. Laptop fits nicely in back compartment. Front compartment holds plenty. Also has a compartment for sunglasses or other fragile stuff and seperate place for wallet, phone, keys, charge cords, etc. Only thing i would add is a keychain clip so you don't have to remember where you put your keys. I had my last NF backpack for decades. And NF will fix any defects from normal wear and tear.

Love the backpack, great purchase

It's my daughter's school backpack. She loves it!!

I bought this as a replacement for my old adidas bag. While it doesn't burst and expand weirdly when i shove fifty billion things in it, i really appreciate the structure it has. I can go to sleep at night knowing my laptop is protected and that my back isn't dead from all the things i have to carry (it forces me to have good posture)

This is my third one! Still have the other two.like it so much i have one for different activities.

The backpack looks great and is made with hardy material! It has plenty of space and a comfortable fit.

This is my 3rd bag by TNF. I got this updated bag to compliment my trip for vacation. Like many bags, this materials and stitching is top-tier. Plenty of pockets for storage & stylish design makes this bag appealing. It's comfortable on the back, versatile restrains snug the chest and waist.

This is the most amazing backpack ever. It is super durable and really light. It has a laptop case and tons of room inside, I also experienced its to water bottle holders and they did not spill! My son uses it for school and he loves it. We use it on hikes and we switch of using this bag because its so nice on our shoulders. You need to get this backpack!

Bought this to replace my husband's travel bag that was falling apart. Great size, sturdy, easy to travel with. Would definitely recommend!

The quality of this bag is unmatched! This back pack will be used for school, but could easily be used for traveling, leisure strolls, or hiking. I live in a tropical location with lots of rain, so the bag being water resistant is a huge plus. This is the kind of bag that will last you all four years of high school, college and beyond. My son has one and he is not gentle - the bag still looks new. The North Face consistently makes products that are sustainable and worth every cent!

Handy

Great backpack for a high school kid. Cushioned section safe for a computer.

Amazing and durable, I took it on a trip to Africa and it was able to stay very new and clean through the trip.

I've been using the North Face Borealis for a few months now, and it's honestly one of the best backpacks I've owned. The padding on the back and shoulder straps makes it super comfortable, even when fully loaded. I use it for both work and weekend hikesit handles both perfectly. The laptop sleeve is well-padded and fits my 15" laptop snugly. There are plenty of pockets to keep things organized, and the front bungee is great for throwing in a jacket or gym gear. It's also surprisingly durablefeels like it'll last for years. Only downside is the waist strapit's not super supportive if you're carrying heavy loads for long periods. But for daily use? It's fantastic. Would absolutely recommend for students, commuters, or anyone who needs a reliable, all-purpose backpack.

Love the look and versatility!!

Happy with this backpack. Seems high quality. Really like the color way.

this is a great everyday backpack. the laptop sleeve is really handy, plenty of space for a small backpack so i can just about carry everything i'll need on any given day. very comfortable, & the straps feel super secure & durable. i like that the dual water bottle pockets can fit even my large 32oz insulated bottle; unsure how long the elastic tie-downs will wear over time, but for now they're great. my only gripe is the organization. i wish there was just one more pocket to put things in, as the main pocket is so big that things can get lost inside, & the other pockets are too small, so i end up just throwing everything into the main pocket. also, would be very nice for an extra pocket to be towards the bottom of the bag for better center of gravity. overall, this is my favorite daily backpack i've used, & i've gone through a lot of backpacks. good space, decent organization, space for water bottles, tons of options for getting the right fit & strapping things to the outside

Purchased for my son for college this fall. He loves it and has already started using it. His laptop fits perfectly and is protected with plenty of room for other things. Our daughter had a Northface backpack in college and she still uses it. They last forever.

I got this backpack three years ago and I used it every day for school and I really liked it I think a typed up for a good reason I think it's worth the money and it's so good that my mom even got a matching one because she really liked it it's got padding on one of the compartments for like a computer which is really good and it's very comfortable I highly recommend this backpack

The backpack survived a trip halfway around the world I would say that deserves an applaud

Pink north face backpack is compact and even useful for hiking.

This is my third borealis I've had a couple years currently I use this one I have for work and it's an awesome day pack. It's blue. I love the material and it gets me to point a to point B. I love the leather bottom adjustable straps and the side cupholders seems very durable compared to the previous models. As far as it is standing up that's a game changer for me but the way you fix it is stretch the bag out. It will stand up on its own when it's filled so if you're looking for a workhorse backpack, check out the borealis plan on buying another one all the best. Have a great summer.

Comfortable and helpful

Bought this backpack back in 2020 for college, it has survived all type of activities like school, work, travel, hiking, camping, it still feels like new and hasn't tear down. Great quality and overall build!
