Full Description

The North Face Borealis Backpack is a classic everyday pack built for school days, work routines, travel, day hikes, and family outings that move from sidewalks to trailheads with ease.

With a 28-liter capacity, protective dedicated 16" laptop compartment, large main compartment, front organization pocket, and the iconic external bungee-compression system, this backpack helps keep daily gear sorted and ready for the next adventure.

The FlexVent™ suspension system, certified by the American Chiropractic Association, includes articulated shoulder straps, a rounded back panel, comfortable stitch lines, and soft-touch chemise fabric for supportive everyday carry.

Why Parents Love It

  • Room for busy days: The 28L capacity offers space for books, binders, layers, snacks, and everyday essentials.
  • Laptop-ready design: A protective dedicated laptop compartment fits devices up to 16".
  • Smart organization: The front compartment includes secure-zip pockets and a padded tablet sleeve for smaller items.

  • Quick-access storage: Two durable water bottle pockets can also be used as multi-use pockets, with quick-draw smartphone access on one side.

Built for Real Outdoor Use

The Borealis is made for real daily movement: school mornings, campus walks, outdoor classes, weekend errands, road trips, and after-school trail time. Its stand-up design makes packing and unpacking easier, while external bungee compression, side bungee cords, and bottom compression help manage changing loads throughout the day.

Details like YKK® zippers, a padded top grab handle, sternum strap with whistle buckle, removable waist belt, reflective details, and coated abrasion-resistant recycled polyester boot fabric add practical function for everyday family routines and longer days outside.

Fun
Color: Multicolor
A little smaller than we'd hoped but all in all he's pretty cool and our dogs loved him.

Worth it!
Color: Llama
Wanted to keep this for myself! Made well, size is perfect for a 90 pound pup, durable enough for a non chewer (she cleans their fur but doesn’t chew anymore). Durable enough that has been left outside during Summer storms and washed/dryed a couple times already (I use a laundry bag) and still has its adorable shape. Great value for the money, though I might need to buy another one for myself! *^_^*

Our Doodle's Fav Toy
Color: Multicolor
The first slothicorn toy that we received had a broken squeaker. We were able to quickly and easily get a replacement and send the broken one back. This is one of my pup's favorite toys, although I don't think the horn will last long-- it's the part she likes to chew on the most! At 5lbs, the toy is the same size as my Goldendoodle puppy. I think the toy is overpriced when not on sale (I got on Black Friday promo), so I would encourage waiting for a price drop before purchasing or locating another option that's affordable.

Not very durable if your dog likes to play aggressively with his toys.
Color: Shello There
My yorkie loves it. However he removed the rope tail tail on day one. Within a couple of days it came loose at the seem from chewing and he started pulling the stuffing out. I won't give back to him until I am able to mend it.

Puppy Crack!
Color: Pollen for You
Because its her only toy that crackels and the daisy (as in DaisyMae) flower moves up and down on the rope. DaisyMae loves it! Bee squeaks, flower dont, both do crinkle. But if you have a jaws of life puppy always going for your feet, its a great leg workout too. Well buit rope is nice to place in between your toes. Great buy. Super cute! Win Win! Toys are on the smaller size, perfect for a baby puppy learning a squeaker toy. Maybe 6 to 8 inches each. A nice buy for 13bucks.
