Customer Reviews The North Face Borealis

We purchased this bag for my high school student. This is a great size for her books, computer, and her lunch bag! It has comfortable straps and the color is super cute! Great purchase!

Exactly what I expected

Got this backpack for my daughter's 8th grade year. Great backpack! Stylish, durable, comfortable and lots of compartments/pockets. Padded compartments and pockets for laptop, iPods and phone etc. Deep side pouches for water bottle. Lots of great colors to choose. Great backpack!

We love the North Face backpacks. They are durable and last no matter the abuse. Plus Northface stands behind their products.

I purchased this backpack for our daughter who is just starting middle-school. We do a lot of traveling and hiking so I wanted something that served her well at school plus be used for outdoor adventures. It is a perfect combination of great design and function for many occasions. The colors work very well for a tween and will last her years. The cushioned area is ideal for a tablet and there are plenty of areas for lunch, books, sun glasses, water and jacket. I would highly recommend this for middle school through adulthood.

After reading too many reviews on backpacks I decided on this one. I love this backpack. It has all of the compartments I've been looking for! ie ... side pocket for my water bottle (which my last backpack failed to have!) and room for everything else. It feels sturdy, it's cute and comfortable. I think I'll be able to fit everything I need in it!

Bought this backpack for my daughter to use at school. She selected it because of the stylish way it looks and the brand name that is very important to her.

For school

I use this backpack for school and it's made life so much easier! I can fit my computer, all my books, and clothes if I need to. There is so much space! It lasts a long time too because I've had the same backpack for years and just got a new one out of desire not necessity. Highly recommend!

Its super light weight and attractive!

This was a purchase for my daughter heading off to college. We had an old version that she had used for years at school as well as work at a pool/camp. Many daughter is petite, and this backpack doesn't overwhelm her small frame, even when stuffed full of supplies and a computer. It is fashionable, durable and has all of the bells and whistles she wanted.

This is a really great book bag and has held up very nicely.

My daughter loves this backpack. It is big enough to hold her Chromebook and all of her school stuff. The water bottle pocket is big enough to hold a 20oz reusable water bottle. She loves the bungee on the front to hold her jacket on warm afternoons.

This is just what I needed for starting back to school!

I bought this for my daughter who is now a sophomore and needs enough room for books as well as the comfort in her shoulders. We bought a Vera Bradley last year and the first day it did not hold up w her books . This bag seems to be doing great so far and she loves it .

Great backpack. This is my 3rd North Face backpack but the first time I've purchased the Borealis. This backpack has the high quality you normally see with North Face backpacks. It's very roomy. Fits 13" laptop, books, notebooks, planner, chargers, snacks, water bottle and still has room for more. The back padding is very comfortable and fits my back well. I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a backpack for college.

The coral metallic is gorgeous!!! I'm so in love with the look of this bag!

My daughter loves her backpack. She can't fit everything in her locker and this has helped out a lot! She loves the space and the comfort of it.

My daughter wanted this backpack for high school. She is thrilled with it!

I bought this for my daughter as she starts eighth grade and she absolutely loves it! It looks great and seems very durable!

I love this product! It is such a cute backpack. It is also very nice how they have a pocket just for your laptop! Perfect backpack for college! I would definitely buy again.

I have hiked, traveled and carried this backpack for school. It's very versatile and comfortable. Not to mention it had just the right amount of compartments.

I got this for my 12 year old daughter to use for school. She loved it! I was very pleased with the quality.

To carry books to class

Bought for my daughter for high school. She loves NorthFace backpacks. Is very sturdy. Do wish the openings were a tad bigger since using this for high school and having no lockers for books. bought the light grey on grey. Color is nice.
