The Women's Borealis Backpack is the women's-cut version of The North Face's longest-running classic daypack — the same external bungee-cord system and stand-up structure as the men's Borealis, in a women-specific suspension cut for shorter torsos and narrower shoulders. It's been a staple on campus and on the trail across multiple generations.
At its core is the women-specific FlexVent™ suspension: articulated shoulder straps, a rounded back panel, comfortable stitch lines, and soft-touch chemise fabric, certified by the American Chiropractic Association. A dedicated protective laptop compartment, a large main compartment for books and binders, and a front compartment with secure-zip pockets and a padded tablet sleeve handle organization. The external bungee-compression system, side bungee cords, and bottom compression lash and stabilize loads, a stand-up design keeps the pack upright for one-handed loading, and 360-degree reflectivity keeps you visible on early or after-dark commutes.
