Comfy Feel

My first time trying this type(hiking) of backpacks. I really like all the pockets and space. I also really like its big. What I don't like is that hard part for the laptop. I feel that hard thing does not let the backpack be stretchy, cant fold and have to flip sideways when storing it in a wire rack. Other than That I really love my backpack, best investment because I can use for everything.

Good Quality

Purchased this to replace my last Borealis pack, which lasted about 3 years. Very happy with how long it held up and the new one seems even sturdier.

I Would Buy This Product Again.

I Would Definitely Recommend Buying This

The backpack has a lot of space, is super comfortable, has enough pockets to store anything you bring for a short trip or a hike. I work at a ski resort and this backpack delivers every time I'm on the mountain.

Did Not Meet My Expectations

I was leaving on a long trip and got this bag for that reason. I absolutely can't stand this bag. It looks great, the straps are comfortable, but the bottle holder is the pits! My bottle is constantly falling out and clanking all over which is super embarrassing. The only thing that has helped is tying my water bottle in the bag with a shoe lace which doesn't look good but it functions. Absolutely do not recommend this bag at all. Because I left for an extended time I can't return it either. It also makes me think the next time I buy something I will get it from a place which honors their products more and stands behind it longer, so I will make my next purchase with the competitor. Extremely disappointed here.
