Customer Reviews The North Face Borealis

Bought it for myself

I am a first year medical student and my old backpack broke the first week of school. I got this backpack as its replacement and I LOVE IT!!!! It has more than enough space for my computer, books, and coursepacks. Some of the pockets have soft lining for electronics and chargers which is a definite plus. The two side pockets are super handy too - I can bring my tea and water bottle with me to class. Also, even though I have a ton of stuff in my backpack - it's never felt lighter! My old backpack used to tug at my shoulders, and this one is very easy to carry. I bike a lot to class and it's very easy to bike with!

Great bag! Stylish & functional!

Son loves this backpack - fits all he needs for high school.

I use this bag for school and it so comfortable. I put my genetics and chemistry book with a couple of journals in it and it doesn't weigh me down! I would buy this bag again and again! The different colors are a plus as well!

I'm a student who balances school, lab research, producing music, and hiking/traveling. I had another bag before this that was failing to meet my needs. This bag on the other hand is everything I want and more. I can carry my computer safely with my notebooks to class. I got my research notes tucked in the front compartment. On the weekends, I can pretty much carry my clothes, food, personal care products, and water for a camping trip.

I love this backpack!!! great fit for my laptop and college books... very roomy and keeps all my things organized.

Perfect dimension size, easily organized with ample room for large quantities. As a college student, able to keep all notebooks, laptop, pens, and majority of school books in one bag.

I wear it to go play soccer to school can practicaly wear it anywear

I bring it to school with me everyday. I love it, but I would prefer to have more pockets to place notecards and high lighters.

Daughter started 7th grade and loves this backpack. Looks great. Works great and is light weight and attractive but not flashy. Happy girl.

I LOVE THIS BACKPACK - It is EXACTLY what they advertise it to be and SO much more. It has all the necessary pockets and places for my things. It keeps me organized and doesn't strain my back with weight. This backpack is DURABLE and very attractive. I couldn't have designed it better myself!

I love this backpack and the vaporous gray color. It is very stylish yet simple and fits all my school needs.

I was looking for a bag with a laptop compartment for college that also holds enough books and this was definitely worth it. My parents bought it for my first day of college and I am glad they did. I spilled something on it and the stain wiped right away.

This pack is unbelievably comfortable. I'm a college student and use it everyday, it holds all my books plus my laptop (has its own pocket) and it feels great on my back. This is the top of the line for students/commuters!

This backpack is one of a kind. It is so comfortable and i get so many compliments saying how nice it is.

I bought this for my daughter who was starting college. It looks beautiful, she has plenty of room for her laptop and all her books, and she say's that it is comfortable even when it's loaded down. We just recently received it so I can't attest to it's durability but so far it has been wondeful in every way.

My daughter loves this bag for high school books.

I use this product to put all my school books and supplies. I am a commuter so it makes travelong a lot easier. And the fact that it is very modern and stylish just makes it even better to carry around.

School use.

My son uses it to carry all his school books. Does not need a locker for that reason!!

I use this backpack everyday for school and it carries all my books with no problem. The backpack is very comfortable on my back and makes the 30 pound backpack I carry feel lighter than any other backpack does. I love this backpack and will always buy Northface in the future.

School back pack

What I really like about this backpack in comparison to others I've used is that a the back is very strong and heavily padded - great for someone with back issues!

My daughter uses it for school and it has plenty of room for her books and binder.
