Customer Reviews The North Face Borealis Sling

I gifted this to my fianc and she loved it. She's love how much storage it has on top of it the little front phone pocket very easy to access it

Perfect work bag. Awesome color combo.

Great for small amount of items but the water bottle holder doesn't hold even small standard bottles

I recently had surgery and wasn't able to use one of my hands to grab things easily. Apart from the fact that the sling bag looks amazing and you can style it any way with hoodies and any type of street wear. It helped me so much after my surgery so I absolutely love it! Moreover it has so many small pockets it fits all my essentials!

Great mini version of the original but the one sling design makes the weight distribution uneven and hard to find the right position. Can hold a surprising amount of stuff and webbing on outside helps hold raincoats, umbrellas, etc. I used this as a grab and go diaper bag with just essentials for trips to playground and for travel.

So cool

Perfect for carrying essentials items to work and to farmers market.

I use this small bag for work, running errands, and even hiking. Literally you name it. It's so convenient having it on your back while carrying so much; I should've bought it years ago! Great purchase overall. :)

Excellent product and good for carrying small stuff

Such a convenient bag in my military uniform.

I bought this to use on a trip, but its really small. It probably wouldn't hold more than a purse. And the water bottle pocket is really small! I don't know what water bottle would even fit. I returned

Excellent sling bag for travel!

TNF Borealis Sling great bag to wear around town. Perfect size for all the stuff you carry you normally stick in your pocket. The handy zippered pocket in the strap is great for a small wallet, easy to access when shopping.

Too small!

I use to go around my daily errands. Fits everything I need perfectly without it being too bulky.

I purchased this bag to use to carry my go pro and some accessories. It worked well. It's a little small and that's why I gave it a 4. Other than that, I find it will be a useful bag. I plan on keeping it and not sending it back because I believe I will get some use out of it.

I had initial concerns about the size of the Borealis Sling, but I was pleasantly surprised when I tried it on. The slingback fits my body perfectly, making it comfortable to carry on hikes and other outings.

My husband loves his sling. I got it for him to use on a recent trip overseas. He used it to hold his passport and personal items. It came in very handy. There are several different compartments to hold a variety of things and it's easily accessible when needed. Definitely a great purchase.

This bag securely wraps around my upper body with no issues. The cushions on the back of the bag supports my back and the colors are awesome! I can put a few books in it my phone in the expandable case on the sling part and possibly even a water bottle.

Use for quick errand runs and trail hikes.

This sling bag is stylish and enough to put all of my belongings and the color is great

Loved it

It's so comfortable and spacious great for trips to keep all your essentials

I recently bought this for a trip to UK and Scandinavia. I was using a backpack style luggage (early Tortuga) and wanted something I could wear easily in front when carrying the backpack and as a sling when not to give my shoulders a break. It worked better than expected. I think they must have extended the straps from previous reviews as I'm 5'10 and 155 and had no problem even with layers and a thick coat. I could fit a lot inside and then use the outside straps to carry a jacket, sweater, or tote bag if needed. I often had two books and an iPad mini, an adapter, power bars, chapstick, wallet, and gum. I was able to fit the small size and height hydro flask in the water bottle holder- though did have to work at it initially and then it was fine. Things that were great: when you have it on your back and then bring it forward the openings to the bag face upwards making it really easy to access everything- on your back they are vertical so harder for someone else to access. Two things I would improve: I wish I could have changed the direction of the strap and I wish the inside zipper pocket opened in the opposite direction. It was hard to access without opening the bag widely. Overall it was perfect and left my hands free when carrying both my backpack luggage and it to manage the various environments and necessities of travel.
