Customer Reviews The North Face Borealis

Excellent! Perfect size for everyday use!

It is spacious and I can put all my work-related stuff inside it. High quality and beautiful. There is nothing bad about this backpack

Good size and the color is even more beautiful in person!

Bought this backpack after using my father's and falling in love with it. It is practical, comfortable, has many useful pockets, the front straps that allow you to adjust the weight are very good for long walks. It carries a lot of weight and withstands a lot of use.

Great size. Light weight. Love all the pockets. Fits my computer.

Perfect for my college kid! He uses it for school during the week, day hikes and then as a weekend bag! Very versatile bag with the quality you expect from North Face!

Great quality and very spacious .

This bag is awesome! Perfect for school and weekend adventures. I would get every color way if my wife would let me. Seriously this backpack has so many uses, it is so versatile! You gotta get one, you won't regret it

I use the backpack for school although its original intent is for hiking trails. It fits everything I need and has a surprising amount of pockets. Overall good, the dark oak is just like the picture

great back pack

This really is an awesome backpack. It fits everything I need for school, which is a lot, yet it's not too bulky. The design is sleek and comfortable on my back.

Great book bag lots of pockets and space

This is an amazing bag for all use cases. I'm a pilot so I put all of my pilot gear & my tech gear in this bag. I have plenty of space for other things to & it looks great on me. Also I have a video about it on my YouTube channel ronz.y

Purchased this for my son for use in college. He says it's very good quality, like the simple design and holds his contents well. He also says that the material looks and feels like it will hold up well for many years to come.

Super great size, fits everything perfectly

love how much stuff you can put inbuilt very well

Great bag fits alot of my gear with no problem at all

I've had this backpack for about a month now and it's holding up really well! I predominantly use it for commuting to and from work/school, while also using it for travel and short hikes. I really like the layout of the pockets: The laptop sleeve is the perfect size, and the cargo pockets inside the front compartment are just the right size for storing my pencils, cables, earphones, and calculator. The middle pocket is big and roomy for larger things like my raincoat, binoculars, etc. I also like the color choices a lot! At first, I thought the elastic system was ridiculous and that I'd never use it; but now I frequently use it for drying my raincoat or for latching my water bottle with a karabiner to keep it from falling out (not that that's necessary - the side pockets are sturdy and tight enough as it is). We'll see how the zippers hold up. For now, they seem much sturdier than those of backpacks I've had in the past. The only issues I have with the backpack are opportunities for improvement rather than detractors from its utility: The front-most padded zipper compartment is slightly too small to fit anything for me (I think it's meant to be a tablet compartment, but it's way too small for that). Also, if I don't have anything massive in the middle compartment, the stuff I have in the cargo pockets makes the pack top-heavy. But if you find some more stuff to put in the big compartmentor just don't have so many smaller items to keep organizedit's fine.

Great backpack! Heavy duty with lots of pockets. Perfect for a college student and for traveling!

This is a great backpack. Lots of storage. Useful array of pockets. I would recommend as a day pack.

I bought this for use as a school backpack. Works great for that. Have also used as a carryon for travel. Comfortable to wear. Would definitely buy again.

An excellent light commuter bag. Use it every day for work and the occasional dy hike!

Fits a large laptop has large main pocket, good small items pocket and a soft lined electronics pocket. Love the elastic for coats and sweatshirts. Waterbottle holders perfect.

My son uses this bookbag for school. He loves it!
