Customer Reviews The North Face Borealis

Backpack is super comfy and very light. Love the colors they had.

Bought this as a gift for my boyfriend. He loves it, says it holds a lot of stuff. I like the color scheme.

This is a really great backpack. I'm so glad I got it because it's super comfortable and it has a lot of space to put books in and your laptop (I have a MacBook Air) so it fits perfectly! There are a lot of pockets for you to organize your pencils and pens and other stuff which is a plus because I like being organized. I feel that this is a light-weight backpack so easy to carry around. Would definitely buy again for a gift!

Oh my goodness!!! this backpack ia actually incredable!! i saw a few frinds of min have this one so i looked it up and decided that i really liked it. /i am thrilled i bought it!! i love the way it looks, and it is roomy and comfortable, perfect for high school or college

Just bought this backpack in the all black color. Straps are extremely comfortable but a little stiff, allowing greater support. Wasn't sure if I should get this one or the Recon backpack which runs slightly bigger in width. I'm so glad I chose the Borealis backpack. Perfect size and looks very cute!!

I literally love this backpack! It's my favorite one out of all the years I've been buying North Face backpacks. If I could figure out how I would use 10 more of this style, I would buy 10 more! I'd say the ONLY con is that there are one too many straps on the back side of the backpack. I'm not a fan of the lower one that's supposed to go around my abdomen. But, it's still an amazing bag. I am absolutely obsessed.

Love this backpack. Excellent quality and functional design. Really happy with the blue color; it's not too dark or too light; it's a mature blue. I expect to have this for many years. The padding on the back cushions the backpack without adding too much weight. My 15.6 inch laptop fits, although it is a little tight. But, I expected that.

I had the same bookbag with no support. I finally invested in a north face because I heard it was all the rage. Little did I know this would relieve my back, carry everything I need, and protect everything inside. Best investment of college

Good size for what I needed to use for a work/school backpack. Not too big and bulky but enough storage for books, laptop, etc.

I purchased this backpack for my daughter for school. I originally did not think this was the ideal school backpack at first glance, it reminded me more of an outdoor hike type. However once my daughter opened it up and showed me all the organizational pockets in there I was immediately sold. What I loved the most was the two technology compartments; one for a tablet and one that fits your laptop. Since my main concern was protecting the laptop this is by far the best protection I have seen inside a backpack where it actually is "protected" it fits securely and does not move around. It is not big and bulky like most we have purchased in the past and is very comfortable to wear.

I use my backpack for school and sometimes as a travel bag, I love it! It's very comfortable and it's so cute! Also, I'm very short and dislike large backpacks because they look HUGE on me, but this one does not make me look like a turtle.

I am a college student, taking way too many classes and this bag is perfect to fit all my books without making the bag look huge or feel extremely heaand it's also very comfortable. It's totally worth the Money

I just started college so I was looking for a nice, durable backpack for my books & this is perfect! it's very comfortable and is really cute.

It holds all of my textbooks. And there is room for more! It's very practical.

I love this backpack!

Extremely stylish, comfortable, and perfectly compartmentalized.

I spend a lot of time shopping for the best pack pack for me and this is it!

I bought this for college, to replace my laptop bag, and I'm so glad that I did! First off all, it has plenty of room for my laptop, books, and necessities, with pockets for everything. But, most importantly, it is very comfortable to carry, and my back feels so much better than it did using my previous bag. If you are looking for a college backpack that gets the job done, and is stylish to boot, get this!

Enough room to fit all of my textbooks but not big and bulky. The straps and back are extremely comfortbale and the design is flawless. I would say a negative comment but there isn't one. Worth every penny!

This is a great backpack. Ive had if for about two months now and haven't seen any flaws. I was looking on a couple of sites for which back pack to buy. I'm glad I decided to buy the North Face. I've taken this backpack snow skiing in Colorado, it got snow on it sometimes but that didn't cause any problems. Ive had in it 5 degree weather and it didn't cause anything to freeze up. Right now, I use it for college and I have plenty of room for my laptop and all my books. I highly recommend getting this backpack. Even if you do not want to take it hiking or for the outdoors, it would be great just for school or traveling! All in all, great backpack!!

I bought this bag for traveling and starting medical school. It is perfect! It keeps my stuff dry in the rain and can hold a surprising amount of stuff

Hard on shoulders the straps could be softer, and a little small on the inside. Otherwise looks nice and fits my laptop perfectly, also has a spot that my IPad fits nicely.

It's really comfortable and it holds enough for a long day away from home

This is definitely the best bookbag I've ever had and the quality is top notch! The only issues I had were that it was sort of heavy on its own and it can be hard to load (but it fits a lot inside). I think both are a result of the great quality and materials they used though!

Great backpack, I need to replace my gym/office bag and wanted something I could count on for years to come. This was perfect because it matches the color scheme of my North Face jacket which incorporated a sense of style to accompany its practicality. I love the designated pockets for my gadgets as well as the surprising amount of space for shoes/clothing.
