Customer Reviews The North Face Borealis Mini Backpack

I purchased this backpack to carry to work. I'm a nurse working 12 hour shifts. It is perfect for holding my money clip, lotion, chapstick, gum, pens, etc. I prefer the backpack instead of a purse for carrying into the hospital.

I have been searching for a long time for a small backpack and finally found one. I use it on a day-to-day basis to carry small things (a couple of items from the grocery store, mail from the post office, etc.) and to make sure that I have certain things with me (a pen, notepaper, breath mints, grocery bag that folds into itself). I sometimes carry a hat or gloves just in case I have miscalculated and need to wear warmer clothes. I also plan to wear it when I travel when it's especially important that I have a rain jacket and maybe a fleece vest. It's great for all of these uses.

I bought this for day hikes in the foothills in LA. It is perfect. So cute, come on. And it has great little pouches for supplies and to keep things organized. Love the weight of it, who needs a pack that is already heavy if you are going to be carrying it full of stuff? So happy with my purchase. I recommend it and would buy it again!

It's very convenient. I like how it's a perfect size and spacious. And the color is perfect I definitely love it and recommend this bag.

good for putting in snacks or small items since it's a smaller backpack. It's lightweight so great for hiking or travel. The pockets on the outer side of the backpack aren't designed well.

Great small backpack but the side pockets are hard to use. My reusable water bottle barely fits in it, so I end up using plastic bottles which are still hard to get into the side. I thought you could put bottles in both sides for the pockets but it's only one. The other side has a pocket with a cover that is hard to open. If the side pockets were made better and were easily expandable it would have been perfect.

Love this backpack for our hikes. Perfect for day trips or over night trips. It's the perfect size to have on for a long strenuous hike and it's the perfect grab and go bag for the weekend. The color is a big plus!

I use this bc as my pocketbook and I love it!! Love the colors and the size!!

Love thee colors and perfect size for a day trip!

Is pretty but is so small for me I wante exchange

Very cute backpack! It's a little smaller in size than a normal backpack, perfectly what I was looking for.

Love my new bag I put everything I need in it Thank you North Face.

Love this mini back pack! I'm short and petite so most back packs are easy to huge on me, but not this one! I use it for school, hiking, and as an extra diaper bag. The backside has great cushioning, and there's plenty of room for such a small bag! Well thought out storage. The only suggestion I'd make is for the straps to be as comfortable as the backside.

perfect size for daily use. couldn't be happier!

Niece uses it for her after school classes. Best gift she could get for this Christmas

Nice size, great for traveling.

This was a gift to replace another mini backpack. It is getting a great deal of use and loved.

I purchased this backpack because it was small, and I'm tired of carrying around a gigantic one when I don't really need to. I actually love it, and having two gives me the kind of option I wanted.

This mini back pack is so cute! Bought this as a gift for my baby sister, she is 3 years old (: wanted her to have a good material backpack to wear to her day care and to store her toys (:

My girlfriend loves it
