Customer Reviews The North Face Borealis

This backpack exceeded our expectations. My son is using it for college. He was using a crossbody bag and it started hurting his shoulder so we bought this and it took the pain away. He also has enough room on side to carry his stanley water bottle. You can tell its built to last. Highly recommend.

This bag is comfortable and has lots of pockets. I use it for school and I love it.

Great looking backpack, I get many compliments on this. It's large enough to hold my heavy college books and extra supplies, very sturdy and nicely made.

Great material. Doesn't make my shirt go up if I wear it. Great compartment size and space

My old borealis back used to have a mesh back plate which would sometimes damage my clothing. This bag has a comfortable padding instead, which I really liked. The pockets for the water bottles are also very firm and keep it from falling out.

Great backpack for an everyday use

I use this backpack for school. My water bottle fits perfectly in the side pockets, and there seems to be a place just right for everything! I'm a huge fan of this backpack, and I would totally recommend it to anyone.

Great backpack, good quality, comfortable and looks nice.

Lots of pockets, distributes weight well and holds multiple giant waterbottles.

Used for high school. Not bulky has a sleek look to it. And like that it's rain tolerant. My son likes how easy it is.

Very good backpack, I've been taking it to school and I like how convenient it makes holding everything!!

My son finds it comfortable and good

Amazing. I love this bag!

Super impressed with materials, build quality, and capacity. Feeling very organized using it for work travel as well as hiking. Fits my 36oz Yeti tumbler in the side pocket as well.

I bought this for my son - a brand new college student. He loves the color and the functionality. I love the warranty!

It is used as a backpack for school. It is very functional and love all the pockets and how durable it is.

Well built, perfect size for school or work commute.

Was fast to receive the backpack

I've seen these bags my whole life but I always ignored them because I wanted to be different. I recently started college and I've been getting into the outdoors more so I finally decided I'd finally try the borealis out. Immediately I was blown away by how comfortable the bag is. When walking on campus you need a bag that has good support for heavy books. The borealis had room for all the books can support the weight and is still comfortable when full. I love that some pockets are lined with a soft material to keep electronics scratch free. The hydration pack/computer pocket feels extremely safe I don't worry about my Mac at all when it's in my bag. Now that I own the bag I can see exactly why they're so popular.

My daughter loves it purples her favorite color

My son loves this backpack. Uses it everyday to carry around everything he needs in middle school. Very durable and holds everything he needs.

Great bag, roomy without being bulky

The product is great. The durability, and the comfort are both two things I was looking for in a new backpack.

Use this as my college backpack and it's great for when I am carrying my heavy textbooks.

Plenty of space for our high schooler, stylish design, good protection for a laptop, plenty of compartments for organization. It's totally worth the price!
