Customer Reviews The North Face Borealis

Great for school, but a little narrow to carry even 2 binders. Otherwise great backpack

Love it although it is a bit top heavy due to the two pockets that sit only on the top area.

I LOVE all the pockets on this bag, my daughter got the teal ish blue one. It great for her bc she doesn't have to carry much to school but if you need a binder and books it might be a little small. She carries her lunchbox and Chromebook in it. It it had books or a binder I don't think her lunch would fit. Water bottle pockets are high which is nice, not for Stanley's obviously but fine for normal sized water bottles.

Purchased for my daughters for college. Well make and stylish, however they do not hold many of their books.

good for school but a little small if u have mire than two binders p much. this is my second borealis but my first women's one and it's noticeably smaller than the men's but it's fine. i'm salty i had to buy a new one because all the zipper pulls broke off and the inside lining had a bunch of big holes and north face wouldn't even replace the zipper pulls which is literally js knotted on. but it's waterproof and sturdy otherwise and i liked it enough to replace

Bought this backpack for college and so far I love everything! I will say it's not as big as I thought, but the compartments in this backpack are super useful. Overall, great backpack and it's very comfortable.

The quality of the backpack is REALLY nice. It has a good reinforced back and straps. It's just not that spacious if you carry a lot of books. And the weight distribution is kinda off. But other than that it's worth the money!

Only negative if little front pocket doesn't give access to the bottom of the biggest pocket If full

Really great quality but thinner than expected. Not able to put anything extra besides books and laptop.

I love the material and the quality of this bag. The only thing I do not like is how small the compartments are. If the bag had a bit more space it would've been 5/5 starts

I like this backpack, it's really sturdy and holds a lot of my stuff for school. I wish it was a little more spacious, but I understand that this backpack can be used for different things, such as hiking. I can't wait to try it for other things!

I got this backpack for my senior year of high school. I like it because it has a lot of compartments that fit all my chargers and various supplies. My only critique is that it is hard to arrange supplies in the main space because the backpack has more space on the bottom compared to the top. However, I do not use the backpack the way it was intended for so that's on me. Otherwise, I enjoy the backpack and hope to use it throughout college.

I got this bag for trip coming up and college super durable and really cute in the light pink, just a little pricey but it will last.

Nice looking Not as large as I thought Elastic straps not strong one snapped already

Using for my college class, it's so great for storage! 16 inch laptop, two binders, a notebook, and my pencil case!

kinda top heavy depending on what you put in the front packet

Is comfortable I love all the pockets but some of the pockets sit weird and I can't get my stuff to sit in the bottom of the bag

Spacious, comfortable backpack that's good for trips and hiking. It's a little big for everyday use, but still does the job.

I bought this for my daughter for her school backpack. Looks sturdy and well made to hold all of her heavy books.

Got this hoping it will last me all four years of college. Haven't really used it yet but it fits my computer (has a false bottom) and has a secure water bottle holder.

This Backpack was so cute and pretty.I didn't get dirty fast it's my 3rd day and it has black stuff on it.It is kinda of hard to stretch it but it has lots of space I can put 2 full size perfumes in one pocket. Love it overall.

The last North Face book bag lasted my teenager two years, she isn't rough or abnormally hard on any of her things either. I do hope that this one lasts her longer.

It's a great bag - would like more choices like larger backpacks (29+ Liters) because this style is great but can be a little small when adding binders and computers.

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

Love the style and materials except the laptop compartment which barely fits my 15 inch laptop. I have to return it and I’m going to order the Borealis men’s version that’s a bit taller according to the online measurements
