Customer Reviews The North Face Borealis

Both of my kids have been carrying Borealis backpacks for years. They are the perfect backpack - sturdy and roomy enough to hold their books and laptop yet comfortably designed so as not to be bulky. My oldest is a senior and will be graduating in May. So...one last time! I bought him a new one to give to him for graduation as he heads to college!

i use this product to commute and carry all my office belongings including my laptop and files. Also great to use for any trip if you need quick access.

I use it for travel and work!

Best pack I've ever had.

The backpack has a lot of space and is very fashionable.

This is a nice backpack for school, camping, hiking etc. Has a nice sturdy feel to it. Comfortable and stylish!

Bought for two week trip to Europe for train travel and lots of walking and carry on. Lots of room, comfort, loved how it looked. Bought the womens and the mens backpack. Loved the design. Very well made. Will get lots of use as we also have family in Colorado.

This backpack is versatile for travel, camping trips and light hiking. I wish the laptop compartment could be a little roomy to accommodate other large items. Overall, the backpack is great. I will probably buy another in the near future for my daughter schooling.

For school

It looks very slick and it is very comfortable.

Bought this backpack for my son after his broke after only 5 months of use. He loves it. Stylish, comfortable and roomy enough for his books, gym clothes and lunchbox.

This is both my school bag and my adventure bag. It conveniently has pockets for my laptop and notebooks or my hammock and water bottles. Similarly, in the front pocket area I have compartments to place loose coins, my wallet, and phone, etc. The organizational detail makes it super easy to grab objects that I need without rummaging through other things or exposing my laptop to the elements.

I use this backpack for my work and for traveling and for everyday walking!!! It's the best for me!!!

This bag has great space and comfort. Very customizable for a great fit, and very lightweight. Many pockets for small stuff, cell phone (padded), water bottle, shoes, laptop/tablet. And with great durability, this bag is a steal for the price.

I wanted a pack that was relatively lightweight and versatile so I could use this on trips. Big enough to fit a good amount of stuff but not so big and bulky that I couldn't bring it with me on day trips hiking or walking around a city. It strikes a nice balance of that and is durable for wherever I want to go!

Everything is good

What can I say, it's just a amazing product. I'm a student and the multiple sturdy compartments makes it great to carry everything you could need in it. Feels great on the back and that makes it easier to travel around campus. Loved the backpack right away and would definitely recommend to a friend.

The Borealis backpack is great! There are so many pockets with different features. I love the overall look of the backpack as well. Perfect for carrying all my school supplies.

Great service and product

I used this on my duty everyday and it's very comfortable especially on my back and more compartments I would recommend this and buy it again thank you north face

First of all, it looks so good and much better than my old backpack. Also, the price is quite friendly.

Really nice backpack, room distribution is great. It holds a laptop, a binder, and 3 notebooks with no difficulty and lots of room to spare. However, the front most compartment with the pockets/zippers is a bit tight and isn't the most practical. Wish that section could've extended a little deeper. Overall, the padding is superb and feels very light on my back!

Nice and simple design. Durable with a lot of pockets.

From hiking to commuting this bag is a must carry. This is my second borealis. I bought my first 20 years ago.

I got this backpack for school but have since used it for hiking and traveling the world. It is incredibly comfortable, very efficient with space and has pockets for everything you need. Frequent use wore out the side water bottle pockets but The North Face was true to their warranty and promptly replaced it, no questions asked. I am very satisfied with this product and will use this backpack for the rest of my life.
