I love this backpack! It's cute and comfy and so helpful carrying my books for school!

The most comfortable/cutest backpack I've had! There's plenty of room in it and it's good to use for anything such as traveling and school. I've gotten many jackets from the north face and they're still in perfect condition, I know the backpack's going to last. I couldn't be happier with my decision and can't wait to use it everyday! :)

The North Face Borealis backpack is a great backpack. It can be great for school use and personal use such as hiking. It's very comfortable but I wouldn't recommend it for a long time trip because I don't think you can only fit so many clothes inside this backpack. Nonetheless great backpack but not useful for a long time trip.

This is an excellent backpack. I have the women's version for two years and I love it! I use it for everyday use for work. It holds my laptop and other work things perfectly. I bought the men's version for my husband and he loves it! His laptop is larger than mine but it still fits it perfectly.

This is the perfect backpack for any college girl! It is lightweight, has a very protective laptop pocket, and many other well placed pockets. This backpack is cute, functional, and durable!

This is so cute! Perfect for my first year of college. The black/tiffany blueish color is adorable! So worth the money! Feels great and light on my back.

I absolutely love this backpack! It's going to be extremely comfortable to most women, but I'm not not sure about women with broader shoulders. I really love the design (I got the gray and plum one), and I can tell it's going to last so long. As for the 15 inch laptop, I'm not so sure about that in the women's backpack. If you are a women with broad shoulders or if you have a 15 inch or more laptop, i would just say go with the borealis backpack not targeted to women (so the other borealis backpack). This is my first North Face backpack, and it's better quality than most other backpacks I've owned. Definitely worth the money if you're looking for a long term backpack. Doesn't hurt that it has a lifetime warranty either!

This is so comfy and super cute! You have to get it, it has lasted me 3 years, and is still going strong!! Works great for both travel, athletic activities, and college/school work. Is pricey, but worth every penny. Would be a great gift for anyone any age.

I am quite pleased with this backpack. I am going to be using it for college, so I needed something that would be comfortable to wear all day. My MacBook Pro 13" and iPad Air fit perfectly in it. It seems slightly small so I do not know if it will become a problem when I need to carry books around. At least my campus is relatively small so it might not end up being a problem. Otherwise it seems incredibly sturdy and like it will last me all four years.

Love this backpack! I didn't know that the special straps and padding in the back would have such a huge effect on comfort, but they feel amazing! It's obvious that these backpacks were made with great consideration for comfort and quality. Although I've only used it a couple times now, I can definitely tell that this backpack will last me a very long time!

I first bought this backpack a year ago for my daughter. She loves it so much I bought 3 more for my other two daughters and wife.

Amazing backpack. A little pricey, but definitely worth the money

Love this backpack! Very secure and durable

It's a great backpack that's stylish and fits all your stuff. It's super lightweight and the smaller pockets are great to get to your phone, wallet, headphones or whatever you need in a jiffy.

I honestly love this backpack! Its design and aesthetics are great! I use it daily for any scenario that requires a backpack. It is very comfortable and vivid! I've never had any back pain whatsoever, and it does come with the promising features!

I bought the new refreshed version of this backpack, so this review will be the most outdated. However, North Face continues to bring the best products to date and I love mine. It is roomy enough for me as a student, extremely comfortable, and enough pockets to last me days. My favorite feature is the laptop sling tech they have. It keeps your laptop suspended in the air instead of having it touch the ground everytime you set it down. You have no idea how much backpacks just lets the laptop touch the bottom and hit the floor. Things like the laptop sling is clear sign of attention to detail and is what continues me keep coming back to North Face. One thing i would like improved is the waist strap as it isnt as innovative to take off as the sternum straps per say. But overall, the borealis continues to be the leading standards for backpacks in my life. Great job :)

I love this new model, I have the old model of this backpack and used it to it's full potential, decided it was time for a new one and was so happy to see they changed it, I LOVE IT EVEN MORE! I love the laptop, tablet, and phone pockets (so soft and prevents scratches). Definitely keeping up with this generation of technology. LOVE IT!

The color, comfort level, and space were all perfect. I was worried it was going to be too small, but nope! It was the perfect size for me to carry my college textbooks. I absolutely love the back support! It was well worth the money I spent.

I love this back pack and it will be great for college!

Bought this as a gift for my boyfriend and so far he loves it. Loves the design and can be used for school or traveling

I use this bag on a daily basis to and from work in NYC. Also for weekend trips. Its really practical and super stylish.

I needed a new backpack for college and this was perfect. The laptop sleeve fit my 15 inch laptop, but because it was a thicker computer (it's a gaming computer) I wasn't going to be able to use it. I was very sad to have to return it because I loved this pack very much for its features and look. 10/10 would buy again. (Also, if you're worried about the laptop sleeve, it will fit you computer as long as it's not very thick.

This is a great backpack for work or school. There's a lot of space and pockets to fit anything and everything. Include a dedicated section to securely transport your laptop. The straps and backing are padded to provide great support and comfort. Well-designed for ventilation as well.

I have bought this pack for years....the update looked good but I still worried I would like the old model better....BUT the update is amazing. The material seems to be better quality and the back of the pack is so cushiony! Straps are super comfortable and all the digital compartments are super soft and padded! Best just got better...rock on North Face.
