Customer Reviews The North Face Borealis

Purchased this for my daughter as a new school backpack. It's insane how much 'stuff' kids are asked to bring to and from school...especially at such young ages. Regardless, this backpack is compact, but fits her needs nicely, and doesn't strain her back as much as her previous (Jansport) backpack. She is pleased with this product, so I am pleased with this product.

Fits a ton of things perfectly and doesn't get too heavy. Great for school and travelling and it's very sturdy. Lots of compartments and whatnot and you can attach things to it. Would recommend this for anyone who needs an everyday bag.

Fits a ton of stuff perfectly and is great for school and travelling

My daughter had been using this for school and she gives this bag a massive beating on a daily basis. The issue that I have with the bag is that no matter how much scotchguard is applied, its dirty.

I love the roomy interior and the color is perfect.

Love the amount of pockets it has and the fact my 40 oz tumbler fits in the side pockets.

Love it for walking to class, holds all my stuff and room for much more

Has enough room for what I need.

Love this so much! Such a nice useful bag. This is one of our favorites!

The backpack is attractive and has many helpful storage features. I appreciate that my 22oz stainless steel flip-top water bottle fits into the water bottle pockets and is secured in there by the bungee cords. My complaint is that the bungee cords on the front seem a bit tight, impeding the ability to load the main compartment.

It well constructed and reasonably thoughtful. For travel- it is small and does not expand. So if you are taking extra set of clothes etc, it gets very tight. I have not used it for hiking yet. A softer more pliable daypack is better for travel than this design. But love the outer straps that you can put your jacket on the outside of the pack etc. Just think about its usage.

Good quality bag.

Looks great! The color is a bit off..

I bought this backpack after my other brand backpack ripped along the bottom after three years of use. It has compartments for everything I need for college as well as so much extra space for me to keep everything organized. The spots to clasp items on along the straps, back, and sides are so useful and it is by far the most comfortable backpack I have every had- my back doesn't get all sweaty and gross feeling, my shoulders don't ache, and everything stays where I put it originally!

not a terrible backpack, my computer was just to big for the laptop compartment. the front pocket also made it top heavy. definitely a small bag overall. zipper broke where my laptop touched it.

Solid construction. Bit small. But lightweight.

Love everything
