Customer Reviews The North Face Women's Borealis

Great backpack! I'm giving it a full 5 star review because of the awesome features provided, including the separate laptop compartment, the use of durable and reliable fabrics and hardware. However, I really do wish the admin (organizer) pocket was as deep as the rest of the backpack, because I loved to put lots of everyday stuff in my old Jester, like deodorant, tissues, moisturizer, etc., but this pocket just isn't as useful because of the depth reduction. I would also love to see additional organization pockets in that pocket. Finally, I would love to see the inclusion of more reflective patches on the top of the Recon! As a student and a relatively experienced traveler, I would love to see the implementation of reflective fabric on the handle itself to make it easier to find among dozens of other bags in dim lighting with a flashlight! Overall, The North Face makes a great backpack, this backpack does not disappoint, and I would (and probably will) most certainly buy it again in the future.

I use it daily in school and I love how it don't bend it sturdy which I wanted in a bag. I love it!!!!

It looks clean and minimalistic. It does not look big and bulky, but you can fit sooo much stuff

Besides some minor issues, the over all product was worth the wait! I'm definitely shopping more with NorthFace.

I use this backpack for school and it holds everything together perfectly. It is comfortable and it has pockets for all my school necessities.

Great backpack for college. Enough space for textbooks, spirals, a laptop, pens, and much much more.

I use this backpack in college. It is very durable and can carry all my textbooks, notebooks, and laptop. It is also very stylish!! Love this backpack.

Great for school use.

This backpack is amazing! Been on a hunt for a spacious backpack with back support & I finally found it. Im a current student & have many school supplies to carry including my laptop. I suffer from back issues and having to carry many objects takes a toll on my back but thanks to this backpack my back is amazingly supported & even though I'm carrying the same amount of stuff I did previously in my Jansport backpack, I can totally feel the difference! It's super cute, stylish and sturdy! Highly recommend it! Totally worth the investment.

Both of my high school daughters use this backpack. It is durable & large enough to hold a lot of textbooks and binders.

My High Schooler uses this backpack for school. She carries way too many books plus a laptop and everything fits nicely. Bag has held up well.

Use for school

Bought for my daughter in college. Had same bag for over 10 years! Great bag!

This backpack is everything I need and more. It exceeds my standards and will last me years! I could never buy another backpack.

Awesome love them!!

I was looking for a new backpack for daily use and travel. I wanted something that would have plenty of room but not be too bulky. This was perfect! It's quite durable with plenty of compartments and I'm so glad this has a separate pocket for your laptop - makes it easier at the airport instead of opening the whole backpack. The compartments go quite deep. The organizer compartment is fantastic - the only thing is that this compartment only goes about halfway. I wish it did go all the way down, but it still has plenty of space. Overall, absolutely love this backpack and would highly recommend!

I am a high school student with a lot of home work. This backpack has the right amount of pockets and spaces for all my work. It is very comfortable and it was just what I was looking for. I would highly recommend.

I use this backpack for school purposes and being in graduate school I have A LOT of books to carry around. I love that this backpack has a pouch to keep my laptop separate from all of my books. It has enough room for me to hold books for my classes as well as anything I would need to teach my lab. The small pocket on the front is great for chapstick, tissues, hand sanitizer, etc. Perfect back pack for everything I like to keep on hand.

It feels so comfortable and it is able to carry all my things including my laptop safely

I really like this backpack it works really well for what I need it for. It's also really nice that North Face has a lifetime warranty because if there is any issue it gets all sorted out.
