I love it!
Very well designed backpack. It has everything right and in the right place. I'm a designer and I love climbing and hiking, and maybe except the bottom of the backpack that makes it fall to the front when put on the ground, it's my favorite one. It looks smart, it doesn't look too big, but you will be surprised how much you can put in there! The additional two straps in the front make the most heavy load to be cared effortlessly. This one was made of nylon (black with blue stretch), and much stronger than any other backpacks, even within the same type

Spacious and comfy
This is a super duper backpack for women. It's very comfortable. It takes all my stuff, from a spare coat to my lunch. Scarf, gloves, hat, umbrella, water bottle, laptop, widgets, chargers, notebooks, pens, I could probably fit my cat in there, if she wanted to come! It's expandable. It doesn't stand up by itself but who cares. Most of all, it fits my hourglass figure, and the straps don't squash my boobs. One very happy bunny!🐰

Comfortable but not as big as it looks
It’s not a big inside as I would have liked, the straps at the front are a little restrictive. The overall bag is nice and good hight. It’s comfortable but but not as big as I need.

... the years and the bags are starting to become useful again. I have had three North Face Borealis ...
The design and inner dimensions of the borealis have changed over the years and the bags are starting to become useful again. I have had three North Face Borealis bags and the original 2003 one was amazing so when that became too wrecked after 6 years of everyday cycling walking and working I replaced it with the same. Except it wasnt the same, my 2009 Borealis was designed for a laptop and not much else. That and the build was poor with the inner lining ripping and coming apart all over place. I have stuck with the brand though, having faith(!!?) and my 2015 replacement despite being a bit more tablet/smartphone friendly with some fleece lined pouches for screen protection is back up to being a descent internal size(they were all sold as the same internal volume but the 2009 was just wrong). We will see how hideous the internal fleece pockets get with wear but its an improvement on the 2009. As always lots of other features, bottle holders and straps and of a size that makes it carry on luggage friendly on planes. I like it.Combine it with a ten litre dry bags for clothes to keep stuff completely dry inside and maybe a small rucksac cover to guarantee its storm proof appearance

Unstitching
Rubbish the strap came unstitched after 6 months, not what I would expect from £120 bag

This is THE Bag
Purhcased to replace my tired Berghaus, this was much more expensive but you can see why. Strong material and the zippers are premium with an easy glide open and close. Loads of pockets too, but not too many that you can't remember where stuff is!! Took it recently to Tenerife and had my DSLR and other bits in and was very comfortable.

Awesome backpack for my daughter that has back problems. It has a lot of support that will help her back. It doesn't hang down when it's loaded up with stuff like all the others. For any child that has scoliosis with back pain this is definitely a good choice.

I've been traveling with a Swiss Gear computer backpack and it was much too heavy. I knew it couldn't be what was in it since I've only been carrying a small tablet and a change of clothes and snacks recently. I finally emptied it out and was stunned at how heavy the darned thing was. I decided to try this one out since it was my favorite color and North Face is a good brand. So much lighter seems to be well made and has a decent amount of storage and pockets. Love the chest strap that keeps the shoulder straps from slipping off.
