Spacious

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought it for my boyfriend who is a nurse. He is able to put all his medical stuff inside the bag along with his food and cables. He just wishes that it was wider.

Going 16 years strong

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got my borealis backpack 16 years ago in the navy. It still looks and functions like it's brand new. You literally can lift it with full confidence, by the main compartment zipper, with it packed full! This backpack is BEYOND military grade, built to last!!!

excellent but not very spacious

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The backpack is quite nice, the problem is space, it has 2 pockets that practically nothing fits. I think the space could be optimized better since smaller backpacks fit more things than this one.

Love this product. Would buy again.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My 11 year old daughter loves this new backpack. She likes the padded section for her school iPad and all the pockets to keep her organized.

No

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I don't feel easy to pack items in the bag, kind of not user friendly. I feel more tightness to fill in the bag.
