Customer Reviews The North Face Borealis

Bought this backpack during my junior year in university. My laptop is wider than most so I really struggled finding the perfect fit and the Borealis has exactly what I was looking for! My laptop fits perfectly and so do all the books required for class. I love the look and design with all the compartments for a water bottle or an umbrella. You can truly make this YOUR backpack! I recommend this product ten fold!

Super comfortable back support, which enables you to carry a heavy load all day and have less back pain than other backpacks. Great for your shoulders as well. There is enough room for laptop, 4-5 notes books (240 pages), pencil pouch, your lunch, two water bottles, and other small items in the smaller pockets. It is super waterproof, as it rains 80% where I live. Absolutely, nothing gets wet inside. It is super durable and resists wear and tear.

I bought this backpack for college and it works perfect if you are carrying around a laptop. Definitely will last longer then the typical backpack and I will be using it for the rest of college and for any trips I go on!!

Are use the backpack for work and I love it there's plenty a room it's made very well.

I am a current college student with a ton of heavy books and a laptop. One of the best things about this bag is the laptop pocket is so well padded even when my bag is full of things I know my laptop is safe. The zippers on this bag are literally made of some indestructible material...even when I struggle to zip this bag because it's so full the zippers handle it no problem. The part that goes against my back is super padded, as well as the shoulder straps. This is the sturdiest bag EVER. 100% worth the money I recommend this bag to everyone.

Love the extra storage this backpack offers. As described on the website and comfortable to wear.

The backpack in zinc grey/powder blue is a nice color with plenty of pockets and room. It is comfortable to wear as well. The only issue is when I take it off and set it down it falls forward; it won't sit well no matter how I fill it.

This is my third north face backpack that i've used since middle school. I am now in college and it's still the best bag i've ever invested in. Wouldn't trade it for anything else!

this is great for school and fits all my books!

I bought this for my daughter. It is durable and roomy.

Can't think of anything negative about it

I got this backpack to replace my old Borealis backpack that I got 6 years ago. I will never buy a different brand because these bags are worth every penny you pay. Functional and stylish. I use it to travel and I use it every day as a college student on a big campus walking long distances.

with 9 classes at school, it holds everything i need without needing to go to my locker!

I'm a college student and it's perfect for all my books and walking around campus comfortably. It's also great to travel back on plane because it fits a lot of my stuff and is easy to maneuver in security.

I'm going to be using this for college and I'm really excited to stay organized with my new borealis bag.

Nice

So much storage and support in this pack. Looks good and meets my needs for size since its pretty large. Only complaint would be the stiffness that hasn't seemed to wear in much yet after several uses.

The bookbag works fine we had a return due to a zipper break after 3-4 months of use. The service department was terrible.

I loveeeee this backpack I am constantly going to jackpot show for my livestock animal and it always comes in handy for necessities that I need to bring with me ! So happy about my purchase :)

Christmas gift for my teenage daughter. She loves it!

I love this bag. It's attractive, lightweight, and overall satisfying. It is the perfect bag for a high schooler. However, it is better for those without a ton of supplies to carry around. In the computer pocket I manage to carry around 6-7 folders and in the main compartment I can carry a binder or two, a notebook, and maybe a book. That and the pockets are my only grievance. I always bring a water bottle where ever I go. I have the HydroFlask 30 oz water bottle and the 40 oz bottle. After using the book bag for only 4-5 months, the pocket I kept my water bottle in fully ripped and my water bottle fell causing it to dent. Just recently, after having the bag for less than a year, the other pocket ripped and I can no longer carry a water bottle. It is really unfortunate and I have not been able to find somewhere to repair it. Also, I had heard that the bag was a little stiff and sat higher up on the back and I was slightly worried about how it might affect my back, however, the bag sits perfectly and I have little to no pain when carrying it.

Very nice and stylish bag! Appreciate the rose gold touches.

Stylish and practical. Love this backpack.

Using for nursing school. Very roomy

This backpack was received as a gift and has been a great for college
