Customer Reviews The North Face Borealis

My teenage daughter loves this backpack. Lots of room, Feels lightweight and comfortable for her all her stuff!

It was exactly what she wanted

I gave this to my 17 year old grandson. He loved it and started using it immediately.

Beautiful backpack

Use this backpack as a carry on when traveling. Fits a laptop/ iPad comfortably with room for clothes or other souvenirs

Quality materials - Spot on fit and finish - You wont be disaapointed.. Although to my personal taste if they can make the same product a size bigger it would be a killer product.

Love the bag, nice classic design.

Bought for my son to use. He's a freshman in HS. He lives it but hasn't gotten to use it yet since they have been on break.

This bag was on my Son Christmas list. He wanted for traveling. He said it's perfect and loves the color

Use it for school. My back no longer hurts and there's room for everything

Great for my daughter heading back to school. Comfortable and lots of useful pockets.

Super cute and lightweight. I was worried it would be too small or compact but it fits all of my high school age daughter's school items, her lunchbox, as well as her water bottle in the side pocket, (Even her large bottles fit great.) There are small pockets to organize personal items as well. We like this better than her JanSport, (She had a large size version,) because it's streamlined and light but can hold it all. Hoping that it's durable because we really like it!

Awesome colors!

Great

It was such a good gift! I use it for school and it fits all of my stuff perfectly. Love the two small zip pockets to use for miscellaneous things. Love this backpack so much!! Ten out of ten!

Great backpack for laptop. Carries everything I need.

I purchased this for my sons in high school. Very durable. Holds a laptop as well as a binder. Multiple pockets for pens, water bottle, and chargers.

Well-designed backpack and is ideal for travel.

Gave it as a gift, but it looks great and seems very sturdy. A little heavier than I expected but it's for school so I think it will be fine. I love that the water bottle holders will actually hold water bottles without them falling out!

Use for camping. Good

Great quality

I've had the same Borealis since early 2017. This backpack has been with me every day for half of undergrad, working full time, my master's degree, and now my doctorate. I've traveled all over the country with this backpack and have had it carry everything from heavy and dense to bulky and lightweight. Its design is beautiful and it's extremely spacious. The only wear it has from 7 years of consistent use is that some of the padding on the back has started to wear and the water bottle holders have started to rip. This backpack is what got me hooked on North Face; their quality really speaks for itself, and while this backpack was an investment for my college-aged self, I'm so glad I made it. I intend on using my Borealis until it completely falls apart and I'm forced to buy a new one.

Improvement over last year's design. Mesh holder has not torn despite heavy use by highschool teen boy.

Really seems comfortable and functional as a bag for my laptop and gym clothes

Great backpck, plenty of space and I really like the materials
