Customer Reviews The North Face Borealis

I use this backpack for everything. School, travel, work, hiking, biking. It's an amazing backpack that is very durable and lightweight-- making it great for almost any use!

I use it for school which I carry my laptop and big books. Even though I am carrying two big books it is still lightweight because of the material of the backpack. Very roomie and has a lot of pockets.

Great quality, lightweight

I love this pack! It has plenty of perfectly sized pockets to keep my stuff organized. I love the soft lining of some of the compartments, makes me feel confident that my electronics won't get scratched up. This pack is very unassuming; it holds A LOT despite its slim profile, so I don't feel like I'm a pack mule but I can carry everything I need!

I use my backpack for commuting to and from work

Bought this product for my daughter and she uses it for school, trips, sleepovers, etc. She loves it!

This is a comfortable backpack. Has a ton of space and is great for traveling or everyday use.

Love the side pockets on the bag.

Great for my high schooler to take to school

Fits everything I need in a way that doesn't make it look like I'm carrying the kitchen sink

Awesome design! Very practical.

This product is amazing and it holds everything that I need it to for college !!!

I love this backpack. I was debating on two different ones and the reviews on the smaller bag were helpful because I decided to go with the bigger of the two. The teal pops and it makes it feel personal with the pops of color! I don't necessarily need the backpack for right now but I plan on using it for the future.

Love how easy it is to pack it down when not super full, but how large it gets when I need to haul loads of stuff. Such a great pack.

great support !

Perfect size for my day pack while doing field work, and it seems very sturdy.

Daughter loves this backpack for high school. Easily fits her chrome book and her binders.

I bought this backpack for an upcoming trip and intend to use it for school. It is very spacious and also stylish. The pockets are big, the straps are comfortable and the zippers are sturdy.

I am a college student and need a backpack that will hold my laptop, notebooks, and books. I have to carry my days' necessities, and this backpack can hold it all. The right amount of pockets and looks great!

I use this backpack for commuting to the climbing gym and then work. I first started out with the Surge, which had plenty of room, but was a little too big. Then I went down to the Isabella, which was too small, but this is just right. I can easily fit my work clothes, lunchbox, climbing gear, book, and more. More than anything though, this is super comfortable. The back support is excellent and even though I'm carrying a lot, it never feels very heavy. Really glad I invested in a good backpack!

Most comfortable backpack I've used in carrying many heavy books. Features many compartments for my school needs. Well worth the investment.

great comfort, space and quality. it is used to carry school items including laptop and lunch!

My last backpack from a different manufacturer finally caved - both straps broke in the same day. I've had my eye on a North Face backpack for a while, and am very pleased with my purchase. It's roomy and sturdy, but isn't overly bulky or heavy.

For a trip and college.

I haven't had this backpack long, but I'm so glad I made the investment! It looks great and has even better storage. The one downside is I wish it was waterproof or more water resistant, as I will now be purchasing a waterproof cover for it.
