Tackle trails and commutes with the Borealis Trail Backpack—versatile, technical, and comfortable

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:


"I’ve used the Borealis Trail for everything from quick hikes to commuting. The FlexVent suspension makes it really comfortable, and I love that it has a laptop sleeve that doubles as a hydration pocket. The bungee system is perfect for stashing a layer when I’m on the move."


Some packs are built for one purpose, but the North Face Borealis Trail Backpack does it all with effortless style. Designed to transition seamlessly from trail adventures to daily life, this pack combines technical features with thoughtful organization. The FlexVent™ suspension system, certified by the American Chiropractic Association, provides all-day comfort with articulated shoulder straps, a supportive back panel, and soft-touch fabrics that feel great against the skin.


Inside the spacious main compartment, you’ll find a versatile sleeve that holds a laptop or hydration bladder, making it easy to pivot from workdays to weekend hikes. The front bungee system secures extra layers, while multiple pockets—including quick-access phone storage on the shoulder strap—keep essentials organized. With durable recycled materials, tool loops, and reflective details for low-light visibility, the Borealis Trail is ready to keep pace with every adventure.
