FAQs

What is the capacity of the North Face Borealis Backpack?

The Borealis Backpack has a capacity of approximately 28 liters.

Does this backpack have a specific compartment for a water bottle?

Yes, it features side bungee cords that can hold a water bottle securely. It does not have dedicated external mesh pockets.

Is this backpack suitable for hiking?

It is suitable for light hiking and day trips, but it is not specifically designed as a technical hiking pack. The bungee system can be useful for carrying extra gear.

What are the dimensions of the laptop compartment?

The laptop compartment is designed to fit most 15-inch laptops. Specific internal dimensions are not provided, but it's a dedicated protective sleeve.

How do I adjust the sternum strap?

The sternum strap has adjustable webbing that can slide up or down on the shoulder straps and can be tightened or loosened using its buckle mechanism.

Is the 'Cone Orange' color reflective?

The product information does not specify if the 'Cone Orange' color has reflective properties. It is a high-visibility color.

Can I fit a 17-inch laptop in this backpack?

The backpack is designed for laptops up to 15 inches. A 17-inch laptop is unlikely to fit comfortably or safely in the dedicated compartment.

Troubleshooting

Backpack straps feel uncomfortable or uneven.

Adjust the shoulder straps to ensure they are evenly tightened. Use the sternum strap to secure the backpack closer to your body for better weight distribution.

Laptop compartment feels too tight.

Ensure you are using the correct compartment; it is specifically designed for laptops. Check the dimensions of your laptop against the backpack's specifications if possible. Forcing a laptop may damage it or the backpack.

Contents are getting slightly damp after light rain.

While the backpack is not fully waterproof, consider using a waterproof sleeve for electronics or a dry bag for sensitive items. Ensure all zippers are fully closed.
