  • Holds a decent amount and well made
Size: One Size Color: Tnf Black/Tnf White-npf
I got this for my daugher to take to dual enrollment classes at a local college. It has a little more space than the Jester, which was too skinny if she needed to take more than just a few things. This one seems a little better quality, although the other one is really nice quality too. It fits her laptop, cord, headphones, calculator, notebooks, lunch, and some other things, with some space leftover. She also keeps a waterbottle in one outside pocket and can put an umbrella in the other, but that fits in the bag too. I like that the side pockets are adjustable with a cord. I also like that there is one sturdy handle on the top to pick up the bag, rather than two of them on the Jester, which makes no sense to me and kind of gets in the way of the zipper. The black is really nice and sleek looking too. ... show more

  • ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Gorgeous color, excellent quality, and a total high school favorite!
Size: One Size Color: Blue Eclipse Light Heather/Blue Eclipse
My teen daughter absolutely loves The North Face bags for school, it is always her go-to brand every single year, and this Borealis model definitely didn't disappoint! First off, the color of this bag is really pretty in person. Beyond the great look, the backpack itself is extremely well made and feels very durable. There are plenty of useful pockets and compartments to keep everything organized, too. If you're looking for a stylish, high-quality, and reliable school bag that holds up to daily use, this is a winner. Highly recommend! ... show more

  • In a world of cheap packs, this is the holy grail. TNF ages like fine wine.
Size: One Size Color: Lavender Fog/Tnf Black/
I got the lavender fog with black accents and its SO PERFECT. It was like christmas when I got this bag. I have wider shoulder, 5’2” and 110lbs, and this bag wasnt at all too big. I am a bag and backpack fanatic. All the details in the construction of the borealis is really well thought out down to the zippers and how you access your things. The only edit I would make, and this is so tiny, is that the keyring be on the left side where it zips up. Thats it. Very happy and this is just the right price for the value. Backpacks are just not made well these days. Thats why The North Face is still in business! They didnt compromise on quality. ... show more

  • Very pleased - but research sub-model dimensions.
Size: One Size Color: Pink Moss Dark Heather/Gardenia White-npf
My daughter wanted a North Face backpack for this school year. Apparently they’re the thing to have this year. We had to do some research on sizing to make sure it would accommodate her Chromebook and binders - several models vary depending on sub-model. But this one has the perfect storage capacity for the average middle school student. The quality of the material was surprisingly robust. And it cleans up easily too. ... show more

  • Good bag, some small faults
Size: One Size Color: Canyon Dust Dark Heather
The bag is great, I’ve used it for one full year of college so far, walking to and from classes every day. The color is as shown in the photos and everything. The only issue is that the elastic strings around the front as well as the cup holders fall out of the holes they are tied into very easily and are difficult to get back in place. Additionally, heat gets trapped on your back and you will start sweating after walking 10 minutes. It goes well on planes and is very safe for my laptop and iPad with good storage space. It says waterproof, but your stuff will still get wet if it’s raining. ... show more

  • Good backpack
Size: One Size Color: Tnf Black/Tnf White-npf
This backpack is really cute and I’m going to use it for many years I hope because of how versatile it looks and it’s aesthetically pleasing to look at. I was expecting it to be a certain way and it definitely meets my standards. I only have had it for a day so I can’t say much but I will update this if I have any problems. So far it looks good quality and stores things well but the front pocket zippers won’t really go all the way don’t so you have to reach but I like the adjustable straps so you can choose the length. One thing I have to add is that there are multiple versions so this one is a women’s one so it’s a bit smaller than the men’s one I didn’t know that when I bought it but it doesn’t bother me because I like the size. ... show more

  • Great everyday bag
Size: One Size Color: Clay Grey/Cavern Grey
This backpack is very well made and great for everyday use. It feels strong and durable but not too heavy. The size is perfect for commuting, school or work, and it fits all the basics easily. There are plenty of pockets to stay organized, including space for a laptop and smaller items. The straps are comfortable and don’t dig into your shoulders, even when the bag is full. It also sits nicely on the back and doesn’t feel bulky. The design is simple and clean and it goes with everything. Overall, this is a reliable backpack with good quality, and it’s worth the price. I would definitely recommend it. ... show more

  • Too small for 3 1in binders and a chromebook
Size: One Size Color: Blue Eclipse Light Heather/Blue Eclipse
The backpack is a great color and the quality is great, but it is small. I thought it would be bigger than the jester version but it is not. If your kid has to carry 3 binders plus a chromebook I would would look for something bigger.
