Great quality and much more space than meets the eye. Great for airport personal item and can hold my headphones, kindle, Passports, and water bottle. Excellent choice for travel essentials.

Excellent quality! Love it!

Great product. Great for carrying your everyday items

The North Face Borealis Sling is a highly versatile and comfortable bag for daily use or urban hikes. Its most notable feature is the ease with which I can access the entire main compartment with a single hand while keeping the other occupied, making it extremely practical. However, its quality is compromised by the external bungee cords: the thread frayed shortly after use, despite only being used to secure gloves or a beanie without applying excessive force. The North Face should urgently improve the quality of this component, as this minor failure significantly cheapens a product that is, in essence, quite good.

I read a LOT of comments before getting this bag, yet, I am still baffled at how almost awesome it is, yet it sucks. Yeah, the water bottle holder is beyond tiny. I thought a normal thin bottle would fit. Nope. It's smaller than a can. The strap is truly short. And the strap is 3/4 wide, vs 1 inch wide. So tiny strap, tiny buckle, crazy short. There are more points. But it feels like the designers made this on a computer, and never made a mockup before sending it out to be mass produced. I can't see how this WAS wanted to make.

Roomier than I expected and super comfy to wear. Looks good too- not cumbersome or bulky..

The inside mesh pocket, which I love to use, makes items difficult to access on the go because when wearing the bag on my front side the zipper zips from the bottom up. If you know you know.

This is the perfect size bag for day trips. Enough space for the essentials in a compact bag. Access to all pockets without having to remove the bag is super handy.

I LOVE IT'S COMFORTABLE AND THE SIZE IS PERFECT. I JUST WOULD'OF LIKED FOR THE INSIDE LINING TO HAVE A DARKER COLOR NOT WHITE. GRAY OR BLACK

Excellent pack for day trips. Has the perfect amount of room for the essentials.

The bottle holder was to tight to put a bottle in . I sent this back

Sent it back the bottle hold as to tight to get a bottle in the holder

I absolutely love this bag. The comfort in the strap and back of the bag is superb! The side is perfect and feels like a backpack which i also love.

Great comfortable pack for light travel days.

The Sling was great for carrying misc items and wallets on a recent trip to Mexico. Was great for bike rides, exploring the resort and even out on the beach to keep sand off of items. I DO wish it was about 1/4 larger all around and the water bottle pocket could most certainly be larger along with the strap pouch.

Great gift for my wife! She loved it!

Needs to be a tad larger, Water bottle pouch needs to be larger. Was great to keep items in while staying at a resort.

I love it! It's a perfect size for when I go skiing in Switzerland in December. Just wanted something outdoorsy and small, but still offers a lot of room.

I love my bag! although I would have loved the larger one. I highly recommend it. It is high quality. I took it on a day trip and it was a great idea.

My Borealis slign is perfectly sized for me--larger than a 3L but not as bulky as 7L, otherwise I would have just stuck to my backpack. It fits all my EDC gear and the sturdy strap gives me an extra sense of security.
