Jaclyn –
My daughter loves her new backpack for high school. So great to have the laptop sleeve to protect her device. The only thing we wish is that the side water bottle pockets were slightly bigger because it is a super tight squeeze to fit a large hydro flask bottle in once her backpack is full. I do have to give North Face a huge shout out for standing by their products, honoring life time warranty and excellent customer service. Her previous backpack had a rip in the side mesh so we sent it back for repair. They let us know that they no longer carry that style backpack and emailed a gift card to purchase a new one! You get what you pay for and we will continue to buy NF for this reason. Thank you!

It’s durable and looks nice, but it doesn’t zip all the way when I store my 15″ laptop in the laptop compartment. Then when I fill the accessory compartment, and put my glasses in the hidden front pocket, it makes the top portion of the pack too “fat”. This top part constricts the whole pack, so I can’t fill the next compartment. Overall the pack feels too tight. I’m a little underwhelmed.

I’m a bit disappointed that the women’s bag is so much smaller than the men’s borealis. I bought this for my daughter to use for school. My son has the same bag but for men. It fits everything perfectly. So we thought this would work for my daughter. I know I should have looked closer at the measurements. But women have just as much stuff if not more than men. We don’t need smaller bags.
Also, the layout of the accessory pickets in the front are not ideal. They are at the top. When full, it impedes placing items in the large main pocket. It also makes the backpack top heavy and bulky-disproportionate to the bottom part of the bag. She already carried it to school or I would return. Overall, I would not recommend and I would not repurchase.

I use this bag for school and it is perfect because it fits all of my textbooks, necessities, and has a protective barrier for my laptop! It is also perfect for hiking, and has a nice pocket that holds my large water bottle!

I use this for school and there is not quite enough room for all of my books, it could be a bit wider.

When it arrived it was deformed on the back & years later they still won’t fix it. Horrible customer service, nobody is willing to help or fix their mistakes. I won’t buy from North Face again!

We purchased this backpack for our daughter who will be starting middle school next year, a school where there are no lockers and the students have to carry all their supplies with them throughout the day. So far, she is using it for travel. Its compact size and extra pockets are perfect for this purpose. We wish there were a few more stylish options to choose from but this is basic enough to coordinate with any outfit.

I came exactly how the one picture looks like.

I purchased this backpack for my daughter who recently entered 7th grade. I purchased the same backpack (different color) for my son when he was entering the 5th grade-he is currently a sophomore in college and still using the same backpack!
Audrey –
Love how there are so many pockets and has a lot of space!
Amber –
I purchased this for back to school for my daughter that is a senior and she loves it! Perfect color and size.
Judy –
My high school daughter wanted a durable and trendy backpack. After looking at multiple “cute” backpacks, she decided on this one. “This is it! It’s super nice, durable, and trendy!”
Tricia –
I use it everyday at work. Its very comfortable
Josie –
Super durable and had a really secure spot for my laptop. Also fell in love with the color!!
Notavailable –
Great quality as expected, comfortable and plenty of room without being extra bulky
Maria –
This backpack will go to OU with my daughter. It is large enough for her laptop and notebooks and has a spot for her water bottle.
Olivia –
Bought this for my daughter and she loves it. Perfect size for all of her books and looks so stylish!

This is a great backpack! I love it, it is so cute and very durable! I use it everyday for college and it works perfectly.
Nikki –
My kiddo uses this as her HS backpack and loves it! Perfectly roomy but not overly large.
Louie –
Lifetime warrant except for a few things. One is the outside mesh water bottle pockets. If one of those rips, it’s not covered. Before you send it back make sure that’s not the only defect. Especially sind you have to pay for the shipping to get it to TNF.

Could have been a bit larger…it was was for a junior girl in high school
Jay –
i love it
Jennifer –
I love the size of this backpack and the organizational compartments it has too. The pack looks deceptively small, and has a lower profile but it holds alot. I find it to be a comfortable pack. It has both a waist strap and a chest strap. The waist strap is not that wide, but it doesn’t irritate me.
Items inside don’t tend to shift around alot- in part because of the elastic cords and adjustable bottom straps. I have taken it many places already. It was a handy carry on size too.
