I appreciate these comparison videos, especially when it is about products that can be used for city life/commutes/school and can be converted into a travel pack.

@tacticalmoose7783 2 года назад

Thank you so much for the Borealis review, you’re legit the only channel to do one.

I guess this is the only video about 2021 Borealis. Thank you so much for detailed review and comparison. Just ordered my backpack after this video. Greetings from Russia!🙋‍♂️

Thank you so so much for the the north face borealis review. Your the first person to do the first review

@PackHacker2 2 года назад

Glad it was helpful!

@shima2756 2 года назад

Just got mine I immediately felt the need (and also acted on the impulse) to cut the fleece on the outmost compartment (where you put the iPhone) so that you can reach all the way down and quickly store a thinner jacket or thicker scarf, without having to go into the main compartment. Putting only soft things there will still allow for a lot of room in the main compartment. I’m happy I did this, now it’s more fit for my needs

what is this hack?

I really like comparison videos, they are very helpful in researching new gear. Thanks!!

@michaelmackintosh5167 2 года назад

Thanks for the video. I was looking up reviews of the borealis just to find out what each little strap etc are used for and you described them all great.

@PackHacker2 2 года назад

Thanks for checking it out, Michael! -Eric

@victormorecoloma2123 2 года назад

Super informative video, thanks! It would be awesome if you could compare the new 2021 Borealis with Patagonia's Black Hole 32l backpack! 🙂

@PackHacker2 2 года назад

Noted! Thanks for the support - glad you liked it! - Austin

Ranger bands on Amazon if you need to have something to hold down those straps.

Thanks for the tip! - Tom

On one hand the Jester is a great backpack, especially at its price, but for the same price there are much better backapcks from different brands. However, when it comes down to the Jester or the Borealis, I'd get the Borealis backpack. Mostly because of the separate laptop compartment, which becomes a plus when traveling.

@PackHacker2 10 месяцев назад

Thanks for sharing your insights! 🤙

@KevObispo 2 года назад

i like jester when laptop is not needed. Space would be simply recoverable when there's no dedicated laptop zippered compartment

Is borealis to big for everyday use ( work, college, etc)?

@clipside2 2 года назад

Wondering the same

@erripetalas9352 2 года назад

No I think the borealis is pretty good for everyday use

@Skywing452 11 месяцев назад

how likely is the borealis strap to tear, that’s all you see on amazon reviews and to my knowledge all TNFs higher end models have them

@okioktamiyuda3205 2 года назад

I like jester because its more small than borealis that can fit with my small body, but side pocket on borealis its my point to have backpack

@VEVOJavier Год назад

I love how the borealis in the thumbnail is different from the one in the video

@alexostrem 2 года назад

I like the borealis but don’t like the random straps that nobody uses and how the volume is mostly in the main pocket

@DeeEllEff 2 года назад

While I know from observation that most people don’t use a backpack waist strap (why TNF made it removable on Borealis) or even the padded hip belts on larger bags, I’m the “nobody” who does use them. Being a bit “pack crazy,” I own 6 backpacks ranging in capacity from 15L to 40L and every one has either a waist belt (incl. the 15!) or a padded hip belt (the 36L & 40). That said, every one of the four waist straps on my bags has a strap keeper to retain danglers. So I won’t defend TNF for that.

@jaredharris1970 Год назад

I always get back packs with side compression straps that way i can secure water bottles with loop handles with a carabiner and clip them to compression straps that way they won’t fall out water bottle pockets

Great video! Was thinking about getting the borealis but I've already got the borealis classic..... Is it worth upgrading?

@istvantoth7431 Год назад

No.

@cafe100mph6 Год назад

Yes the new heather grey color looks like cube fiber very nice

@p0y_poin315 Год назад

Hi, I'm in France and I can't find the exact color of the borealis, could you give me the name of the color, the model of the backpack? Thanks

@varunkanna9566 2 года назад

Hello, How has the watter bottle bungee held up on the Borealis? You mentioned it could get loosened up in the future and if you had an update on it that would be great. I have a 40 oz water bottle and want to secure it. Good content btw!

@PackHacker2 2 года назад

No issues to report at this time! 😃 We could fit a 32 oz without a problem-and there was room to spare. -Eric

@woutermakkinje4777 2 года назад

@rashadhilou4815 Год назад

How to clean these bags? Especially the bright ones, like light grey, gravel, etc…

@lastnamefirstname8843 2 года назад

Ugh the one thing I wanted to know about was the fasteners on the bottom of the borealis. You touched them at 2:38, are those a third set of straps to hold a ground pad(shoulder, waist, bottom) or is that just how you hid the waist straps?

@cafe100mph6 Год назад

You could easily use the bottom 2 straps for anything. I cut mine off. Also I removed the plastic back panel for weight.

@groberti Год назад

Does mesh help with breathability at all? I have had and still have some backpacks with mesh but I sweat basically the same amount in the summer. Even with Osprey's Airscape I sweat without any problems in the summer and I don't see a big difference in the amount really

what color did you get for the jester

@milespalero 2 года назад

Thank you for this! I am torn between the 2. I like the Borealis but my husband likes the Jester for me. I need a backpack for my Blackhills trip this Sept.

@PackHacker2 2 года назад

They’re both great packs 😀 It might be worth going into the store to try them on! -Eric

@cafe100mph6 Год назад

Borealis is a lot more heavy duty, better features, but does weigh more.

@milespalero Год назад

@@cafe100mph6 i got the borealis and don't regret it. I got 2 actually. I also got the mini for my day hike

@abbystephens9766 2 года назад

I have heard that the borealis holds more, is that actually true ?

@JordanAppleby 4 месяца назад

I know this is old but i didnt click this video for the longest time due to the wrong Borealis being shown in the thumbnail. Cheers

@littlerosewood9312 2 года назад

Can the borealis fit a 1 and 1/2 inch binder that’s almost filled all the way? I have a class for school that requires me to have a pretty thick handbook and want to make sure if I invest in a new north face it’s going to be worth my money :)

@PackHacker2 2 года назад

Hey there! You shouldn't have a problem fitting a binder in the pack unless it has weird dimensions. If you're worried about the size, check the return policy or go check it out in person. - Austin

@k0umara28 2 года назад

can fit a 17 inch laptop on borealis ?

@PackHacker2 2 года назад

Hey there! The laptop compartment will most likely be too small to accommodate a 17" laptop. You can find more info on our website: packhacker.com/travel-gear/the-north-face/borealis-backpack/ - Austin

@mitchpapontos5612 2 года назад
