A book bag that doubles as a hiking backpack. Durable construction and well thought out organizational features elevate this pack to the head of its class. The North Face Borealis is a large backpack that is equally at home in class or on the trail. As a school book bag the Borealis can accommodate up to a 17” laptop in the universal sleeve while the large compartment boasts enough room for even the largest research project. A secondary compartment has an organizer for the smaller items you need to access easily and a small stash pocket on the front with water-resistant zipper is ideal for protecting precious cargo. As a hiking backpack the universal sleeve can be used to store a 100oz hydration reservoir. The hipbelt and sternum strap offer additional load control when traveling over uneven terrain and the hipbelt can be hidden in a concealed pocket when not in use. The front bungee system is great for keeping an extra layer close at hand, while reflective hits make the night commute a bit safer. Laptop Sizing.

| I commute on foot or by bus and have neck issues so a backpack has worked the best for me (instead of messenger-style or duffel/tote bags). Tried out different styles and brands and so far, this has worked out. The sizing is great; fits my shoulders and the length is just right (I'm 5’3”.) It is large enough to fit all my stuff, distribute the weight well, is sturdy with good zippers, and I don't look like a high school kid. I use this backpack every day to commute to work with my gym stuff (shoes, clothes) and has enough room to fit an extra change of clothes. I don't carry a laptop in it (though it has a deep pocket with a strap to hold it to the back of the pack) so put my gym shoes (sz 8.5) in there. There's 2 mesh pockets on the outside that can hold water bottles. I find it very useful to carry a banana in the outside pocket without the banana getting all brown by the time I get to work. I thought I'd never use the bungee on the outside but it's been great to strap in a light jacket. It's also a handy place to stick your hat in it when you have your pack off while riding the bus and pulling it out when getting off the bus. So far I've only used it while the weather has been nice, we'll see how it does in the wetter and stormier months. Need to comment on the color. Gypsy Pink didn't tell me much but the coloring is awesome. Most of the pack is purpley-red, with a panel of brighter red in the front with accents of bright pink (bungee, and a few strips in the front) and grey. It's a adult girl's pack. :) | |

| Excellent medium sized day pack - Got this to hold a Mac 15" since old TNF pack is for biking and a little small. Loved the helmet holding attachment on the old pack, but the cords on this work fine for that. I'm 5'3" and didn't want a huge pack. Good size, good ventilation design for my back (hate having a pack that sticks to me), and it's nice looking. Overall very happy with the choice. Do wish it opened all the way (the zips down the sides) and that the pockets inside were of a heavier fabric like my old pack. Computer pocket makes up for all that though and also appreciate the cinches on the side pockets since old bag didn't have that and the elastic does go after a while. Straps are a little far apart for my female shoulders, but the chest strap solves that. | |

| I loved this bag! It was exactly as Zappos described it. It arrived very quickly and was just what I was hoping it would be like. I purchased this bag for a trip to Europe in the Fall, so I haven't actually used it yet. I really like the inner utility/media pocket. It has a place for just about anything including: MP3 player, cell phone, journal, calculator, etc. I also like the reflective tabs on the front of the bag, which make it easy to see or be seen in the dark. North Face products are always high quality, so I'm sure it will hold up just fine. I'm looking forward to putting it to the test soon. I would highly recommend this bag, especially the brown/black combo. | |

| Lacking in size for high school students - This is a well constructed backpack. The material, etc. is of high quality but the size of the back is not sufficient for high school students to carry their textbooks and binders in. If you are looking for a backpack that is small and will hold just a couple of books, I would recommend the Borealis. My son took his to school only one day and then changed back to last year's Under Armour backpack because it is much larger. | |

| I ordered the bag for my boyfriend because he carried an old, ugly, back in the day lap top bag. He wanted a backpack that would fit his 17" laptop and this was it. He loves it. He can fit his laptop along with a couple books and materials such as pens can be organized in a separate pocket. It is a sleek design, not bulky, and provides adequate protection and space. | |

| This very stylish backpack is professional-looking enough for me to carry it to work and to MBA classes interchangeably. It seems to have a lot of straps hanging off it at first, but you can easily remove and store the waist belt straps for future use. The bag has good organizational features and I like its ability to carry a couple liters of water. Overall a great bag. | |

| Wonderful - I love wearing backpacks, and this bag did not dissapoint me whatsoever. I got the Spanish Rust color, and it looks great. It's very comfortable, and there is ample space for stuff that you would carry from day to day. I highly recommend this bag, as you will not regret buying it if you decide to make the decision to purchase it. Hope this review helps! | |

| This jacket is lightweight but very warm. It's a great mid-layer in cold months (especially with the monkey thumb cuffs) or can be worn as a jacket when it's chilly out. Looks slick too! There's also a 1/4 zip version of this available too so if you're looking for more of a shirt/pullover than a jacket then that's probably a better option for you... | |

Comfortable and lightweight! | |

| This is a very comfortable and lightweight fleece! This is the first fleece I've owned without a "stuffy" fell while wearing it. The sleeves fit well for my long arms. Other than jogging during our Houston "winters," I'll likely wear it most on my overnight shifts in the ER, when I get my 3am melatonin dip and the a/c is still blowing cold. | |

| I love this bag! I got it for camping this summer and it is great! It has quite a bit of room and is very comfortable. The different pockets and holders are nice. The best part is that it looks great! My boyfriend is thinking about getting one as well. | |

| I don\'t love this bag. Contrary to one review I read, it really is too big for a 5\'4" woman. The pouches are all the wrong size and shape, and there\'s no small internal zipper pouch for a wallet, change, or the various sundries women need to carry around. Everything goes into one of the 3 big pouches and gets lost in the bottom somewhere. I am a grad student and have a lot of books to carry, though, and this bag does have plenty of room, and the shoulder straps (though they are too wide for my frame) are well-padded. If I hadn\'t spent so much on this one I would probably go back to the old Jansport I used in undergrad. | |

| Good fit but a bit thin for a fleece. Good for 50 deg.F & above. I wear as a sweater or under another jacket. Pros: Full Zipper. Cons: Only 1 upper pocket near chest. No NF logo on back like other jackets. | |
