Customer Reviews The North Face Borealis Backpack

I use the bookbag for my college classes!

My daughter loves the backpack. We waited until the color we wanted was off backorder but once it was in it shipped right away. Great colors, excellent quality, functional. It is the second North Face backpack we have purchased. We still have the first one and it is over 8 years old and in good shape. Great customer service and product. We have purchased other North Face products as well and are happy with them.

Been using this bag for school. Provides just enough space to keep everything neat and organized.

I love this backpack! I can fit all my school books in it plus more, and it's comfortable!

Researched, checked it out at local REI for comfort, features, etc. and finally decided this was the backpack for our overseas travels; sufficient pockets for storage of iPhone, iPad, external battery pack, pens, etc. plus large capacity for sweater/rain jackets. Bottle pocket is a little hard to access when the pack is on so not a pack for long hikes. But will be perfect for our overseas flights and light hiking/sight seeing. Straps are quite comfortable. Pack is a little heavy with nothing in it but that is due to the padding for the back.

Comfortable and durable!! What else can I ask!!

I love everything about it! Totally exceeded my expectations!

I had a North Face Borealis backpack last year, but everyone seemed to have the same exact color, so I bought the black/blue exclusive color recently when it came out. I'd say I've had this for about a month, and it is perfect. It's even better than the last Borealis model. I highly recommend it!

I love that is it very roomy, what I did not like is that the bands that go on your front chest are very rough. They are not soft or have much cushion and leave the back pack strap marks on your shoulder/chest area.

I love how confortable my borealis Is and how organizad i keep myself with this backpack.

It's just the right size for an 8th grader that doesn't want a huge backpack!

This pack is the best! I travel for work and use it as one of my carry-on pieces on the plane. It fits my work laptop perfectly and all of my airplane must-haves like my fleece blanket, eye mask, snacks, ID, Kindle, etc. I recently took it to San Francisco to attend Dreamforce and I would have been miserable walking around for 5 days around the City without it! The fit is comfortable and I love the fleece lined mobile phone pocket in the front. I also took it on my vacation to Lake Michigan this past summer. I stayed in downtown Grand Haven and made it a point to not use my truck at all, but bike everywhere I went. The Borealis was crucial for me to bring along beach necissities and food for day excursions. #tnflocals #ambsdr

I got this for when I'm riding my enduro, and it suits my needs famously. Holds everything I need to have with me and it lets me know it's secure so I don't have to worry about losing items as I fly down a wooded trail.

Often times, my backpack becomes very heavy with my laptop and textbooks, but this backpack definitely makes lugging all my materials across campus so much easier! I definitely recommend! Not only is it super practical, but also super cute

I use it for school and traveling. Very comfortable and great material

It's used daily for gym clothes and carrying a work laptop. It's a great purchase, and works perfectly for the combination of being used at work and at the gym. It's definitely comfortable and stylish.

Used daily for school- carries books, binders, iPad, and extra clothes with no problem!

Daughter is ambitious and wants to go to college for veterinary medicine (I'm scared about how we'll ever get approved for enough loans for this, but want to support her decision/goal). She loves North Face stuff - has 2 jackets, etc. Loves this backpack and it's features. Promised if I paid this much for a backpack she would use it in college as well, so I got it for her.

My son uses this for college. We have been through 2 others and they both broke. He rides his bike to school and this is perfect!

Love this! I use it for school mostly and it's perfect!!

New backpack for my child.

I broke my previous backpack so I was looking for a new one. I came across the Borealis because the reviews were good and it sure deserved it. I use it for school and it's comfortable even with a lot of books. I looks good and is very functional. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a backpack for school. North Face never disappoints!

I love the color and the detail the backpack borealis has. The back support design is different and I love it! The straps are good support! I can say that I add my laptop, notebooks, pencils, even snacks, and other products to my backpack and it feels light as a feather! This backpack is extremely comfortable. I do wish it was a little bit bigger, but other than that the backpack is amazing!

Bought this for my husband to use when we travel. I needed something not gender specific (can be used by either one of us), would act as a carry on for him, plus carry my laptop. this bag does all that.

I bought this backpack after seeing many of my friends having it. Since I really needed one for college I decided to get this one since it seemed perfect for school. Personally believe the laptop sleeve is very useful.
