Great backpack for traveling.

I love that I can fit everything I need for a flight in this bag and don't need to also carry a purse. It's also a beautiful color.

Great backpack for traveling.

I bought this for traveling so I didn't need a purse and personal bag. I can fit everything needed for my trip and have it easily accessible. The backpack is comfortable to wear and fits everything I need, including my laptop or tablet.

Nice pack but heavier than I prefer

I purchased this pack for travel. I have a Camelback pack that is still in great shape after 17+ years but wanted a change. I wanted to get the women's Borealis, but the reviews & dimensions made it sound like it would not fit my 15" laptop. I believe the men's Borealis could fit it. I think NF should rethink the design to make the laptop area a bit higher on the women's Borealis. This pack is heavier than my Camelback, which was a concern, but this is likely due to the laptop compartment. I got it for the sections with pockets, as are similar to my Camelback. I can't attest to it being top heavy, as don't plan to over stuff the pocket area. While the pocket area does not go all the way down, it does go more than halfway. Many reviews make it sound like it is very short. The weight is the only part I am not thrilled with, but the separate laptop compartment is a plus. It feels a bit stiff. This is also likely due to the laptop compartment and back padding. I like the front pouch. I can see using that to put my jacket or neck pillow in when flying.

Perfect bag

Obviously it's great, it's a north face bag. Bought this for my daughter, my old bag is like 10 years old and still works great.

The best design attracted to the young generations.

My daughter loves it. It is the trend in private schools, every student owes one or more.

Ehh

It's great quality but the mesh tore easily, also there is no more computer pocket that's separate like my last backpack. I may use for traveling but James Port for school.

Exactly what I was looking for!

I had an older version of this bag. I love the changes made to it-front pockets shallow, separate computer section, removable hip straps. Love the color!

Not getting better over time

Just purchased this bag and not going to use it. Have a prior version and it had a built in sleeve for my laptop and now the laptop can just flop around unsecured. Very disappointed

I love it so much!

I use this backpack for school, it's great for my computer and I can trust that the fabrics won't tear with time. I absolutely love the color choices and it's definitely worth the price. I wouldn't really change much about this product.

Love the color! Love the size! I bought an older version of this bag many years ago, and I like all the changes that have been made to it. It's the perfect size for a carry on bag when I travel.

Good for School

I really like this backpack-it's both stylish and highly functional. The well-designed pockets and straps make organizing my things easy, and despite carrying a lot for school, it never feels too heavy thanks to its supportive design.

Perfect for Hypermobolity Issues!

I have hypermobility and usually have a hard time finding a comfortable backpack that can carry stuff without giving me pain. I tried even hiking backpacks, and the pain was too much; on the other hand, this backpack allows me to carry everything that I need to go to college, and the color is super pretty. 100% recommended!

Couldn't believe the price for the same backpack going for $120 at the store! Perfect quality and great shipment times.

Need larger storage areas.

Would have preferred if the "large storage" areas were a bit bigger. Initially drawn to the colors (told that for a trip I should avoid certain colors). Liked the straps for beverage bottle and to add a jacket at the bottom. But found the other storage areas a bit tight for use.

Good school or work backpack

Like that the water bottle holder is not web design as those tend to stretch out and useless. Good space inside for laptop, lunch, other items. Seems to have high quality construction which is expected from North Face.
