Customer Reviews The North Face Borealis

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!

Love the side pockets on the bag.

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

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.

I originally ordered the ZINC GREY HEATHER/POWDER BLUE and upon receiving it, the colors were not even close to the online picture. I reordered the RABBIT GREY and it was as pictured. The many pockets are great and it is very spacious. My only complaints are that the hip belt is not removable and when you sit the backpack on the ground it immediately falls forward. The design makes it top heavy and then the front gets dirty. Not to mention it's just annoying.

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.

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

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.

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

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!

great support !

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

I love this backpack. The material doesn't feel cheap, and has a lot of room for my computer, books and stuff. I've been using it for a week now and the only thing I notice that I don't like is that it is a little heavy that I had expected.

This product is great quality and has plenty of room for all my books and hasn't huge side pockets for 36oz water bottle, even a bigger one too.

I use my backpack for extra clothes to take a bag to work or snacks. I enjoy using it

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 use it for school! I go to school at a cal state it rewuires me to walk around campus long distances. And this back pack is so comfortable and once you put it on it feeks light. I love all the different compartments it keeps being my organized.
