FAQs

What is the capacity of the Borealis Classic 28L Backpack?

The backpack has a capacity of 28 liters, providing ample space for daily essentials and gear.

Is the backpack suitable for carrying a laptop?

While it has a padded compartment for a tablet, it is not specifically designed as a dedicated laptop backpack. However, many 13-15 inch laptops may fit in the main compartment or the padded compartment if dimensions allow. We recommend checking the specific dimensions if a laptop is a primary requirement.

Can I use this backpack for hiking?

Yes, the comfortable carrying system and durable construction make it suitable for day hikes. The external bungee and water bottle pockets add to its utility for outdoor activities.

How do I clean the backpack?

Spot clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. Allow it to air dry completely. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.

Is the backpack waterproof?

The backpack is made from durable materials and offers some water resistance, but it is not fully waterproof. Contents may be compromised in heavy or prolonged rain.

What are the dimensions of the padded tablet compartment?

The exact dimensions are not specified, but it is designed to fit most standard tablets. It's best to measure your tablet and compare it with the approximate internal dimensions if possible.

What is the warranty on this product?

The North Face typically offers a limited lifetime warranty on their products against defects in materials and workmanship. Please refer to The North Face's official warranty policy for full details.

Troubleshooting

Shoulder straps feel uncomfortable.

Adjust the shoulder straps to ensure they are properly positioned on your shoulders. Use the sternum strap (if equipped) to help distribute weight evenly. Ensure the backpack is not overstuffed, which can cause discomfort.

Front compartment organization is difficult.

Utilize the internal zippered pockets for smaller items like pens, keys, and chargers. For larger items, consider using a small pouch or organizer within the compartment.

Water bottle falling out of side pocket.

Ensure the water bottle is of a standard size that fits snugly. For extra security, use the side bungee cords to cinch down around the bottle.

Zipper is stuck.

Gently try to move the zipper back and forth. Apply a small amount of graphite pencil lead or wax to the zipper teeth and try again. Avoid forcing the zipper.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
