The North Face Borealis Sling Review and Full Walkthrough
th-cam.com/video/KvmFEEjgkvs/w-d-xo.html
Why not show how it wears? Apart from aesthetics it would give people an idea on how accessible it is when worn.
I've been keeping an eye on this bag for a while now. In fact, this is how I came across your terrific channel. Excellent review on this bag and many others.
Wanted to get myself a sling bag yesterday, checked The North Face website, and there was a deal for the bag for £33. I had to pick it up for that price! I'm so glad I did as they are now out of stock.
what a dope bag, i just got the voyager duffel 32L. This would be a nice companion.
So glad I bought it for only 36,-€ instead of the Borrealis sling bag, which was my second choice.
This bag is really awesome ! I got mine today at The North Face 5th Av. NY and loving it! Thanks for the great review! 👏🏻👏🏻
Awesome! Thank you!
New favorite channel and currently waiting for this in the mail.
Hey thanks Ariel!
i have one of these, i had to get the strap lengthened (strap cut out and sewed in a new one) for it to feel more comfortable when wearing it.. it holds my ipad12.9 plus other bits, very happy with it for travel on planes and just getting around with stuff..
Was it hard to get the strap lengthened? Just take it to a tailor?
I’m loving the side handle
It’s really good! This is a good bag for sure
Found the strap on Amazon and the tailor said it was an easy job to do as it only needed two bits to be sewed together
It went up to $79 three days after this vid was released. Damn, that's a shame. This is definitely one of the better looking slings. Awesome reviews as always!
Wow!!!! They must have seen that I recommended it! 😂
It’s still $59 on REI. Only black and green though.
Ordered two after this review, the TNF black and the Green. Not sure which one I like better but keep putting out quality videos like this man! I got it before the price hike of an additional $20.
Great!!!!
I've been using this bag as my "go bag" for work for about a week. It's awesome. I love the look (ordered the same color combo as shown in the review), and the size, available space, and ease of access is exactly what I was looking for. I do wish there was a left v right shoulder option, but it's not a deal breaker.
Bottom line: this bag is righteous.
Thx for sharing your experience with this one!
Northface should bring the TotePack back with these many compartments + waterproof
Love ❤ your video. Going to order one
Thanks!
How many liters is this bag I can’t find it on the north face site
I eneded uo going for the oeange one. Thanka for the video man
You are very welcome. Thank you for watching!
I really wish they had a second "molle" webbing strip on the front, but may be I can get someone to sew one on for me. That way, you could add real molle accessories like a water bottle holder.
Agreed. This really is decorative.
Hello, thank you for your videos! I'm trying to choose between this bag and Cotopaxi Chasqui 13L . Which one do you recommend? Thanks
this one. I like this slightly better. But be sure to consider the TomToc 9L Compact EDC Sling.
Love your videos! Between this and the 9L TomToc Sling, which would you pick?
Probably the tomtoc as it feels a little less floppy and I like the vertical orientation.
Right shoulder is a deal braker for me
i saw online..they have the red bag ..
Out of stock absolutely everywhere in Europe now :( Klint, have you come across any other 10-ish liter sling bags that open to the side, i.e. the correct way when slid to the front?

Just picked this up for 20% off at moosejaw. This bag is perfect. I’m wishing it was a bit bigger, but that’s me wanting to be able to carry a second laptop on top of the computer and tablet and other gear I have stuffed in there already. So I can’t really complain. Front strap pocket fits my iPhone max, wallet and headphones (it’s packed in there but it fits). Perfect blend of sleek form factor while maximizing utility. The only thing missing here is that aquagaurd on the zippers that you mentioned
Great bag for sure! And fun colors available
What is the orange/brown bag hanging on the left? I’m so curious! Thanks 😊
Nice eye. That's a Jansport Watchtower. If you want one, you'll have to keep an eye on eBay and Poshmark, etc because they are no longer made/discontinued model.
Amazing sling, would work wonders for uni
do you think i can get away with a 363mm x 260mm laptop (talking lenovo legion 5), considering the sling is 267 mm x 380 mm on the website?
Man…I don’t have this one anymore to measure it for you!
Awww man, that's fine
If you had a choice between this sling and the Aer Travel Sling 2 (for EDC/airplane under seat bag), which would you choose? Especially if you are bringing a large 12.9 inch tablet?
For heavy travel the aer
Thanks ive been looking for a cool/laptop bag
👍🏻👍🏻
The bag looks optimal for flatter/small items. Do you think the main compartment fit a 24oz water bottle?
Yes. There’s tons of room in there. Although certainly there is always a risk and carrying a water bottle with other items.
You could always get a molle water bottle holder to attach to the front or one of those flat memo water bottles.
My boyfriend wants this for his diaper bag… he’s so excited!!!
that's an awesome idea! I think it would work well.
Love the video- thanks. I'm a teacher and I know my laptop/tablet will fit. What about a standard folder or a clipboard? Will that fit in the front compartment? Thanks you.
I think so!
What size was your laptop that you put inside the bag to try out? Thank you 😊
13.5" microsoft surface laptop 4
Nice video. Can you tell me which you like better between this Northface Base Camp sling vs the Alpaka Bravo Max xpac sling?
Bravo max….because it holds its shape better
Metromonger better than both.
@ThePerfectBag
Trying to decide between the base Camp voyager Sling and the Metromonger…
I am unsure because metromonger can hold a capacity of 9 Liters versus the Base Camp voyager Slings 11 Liters. Is it a noticeable difference? I have a Kid and usually carry a Backpack with Snacks, water Bottles for 2, some Kleenex, altoids Tin, Osmo Pocket Camera, charging cables, Power Bank etc. But dont Need a diaper Bag anymore, but a little leftover Space would not be wrong for everyday things.
Does the Metromonger have a more efficient use of the inside Space?
Where did you get the green, followed the link but no green colour option.
I have no idea why they stopped selling the green. It looks like the blue and yellow is the next coolest color way, but I really have no idea why they stopped the green.
Just letting you know that this video uploaded at 360P again
Thx should be fixed and I figured out what I was doing wrong. :)
Hmmmm…or maybe not. Certain videos are giving me a “your video processing is taking longer” message. I time these out to go live after HD processes. I’ll research it
Will it fit a 14” MacBook Pro❓😮 I think it’s only .5 inches bigger than your surface 4 but MacBook is thicker too. Totally want this bag
Yes I think no problem
In case anyone is wondering I was able to fit a 14” MacBook Pro
@@damonremy3568 Was it super snug or still a little wiggle room left?
@@alexr.8397 it had a very small amount of room, anything larger may be a tight fit.
@@damonremy3568 thanks, my laptop is slightly larger than a 14" MacBook. Hopefully it'll work out.
Can you carry it on your chest ? Like a tactical chest pack ?
Yes - you certainly could….but it is a little large/bulky for that compared to most chest bags.
Guys i am finding trouble for something:Should i change the Borealis sling for this??
Thank you very much
This is about 5x bigger than the Borealis
I don't need another sling..... just watched this video and order one lol
Right?
Are you able to wear this across the front? I heard you say it wasn’t reversible
You can! I meant that it’s built for a particular shoulder and you can’t wear it on the other - but you can swing it to your front for sure
Was that a 13.5" or 15" surface?
13.5
@@ThePerfectBag thank you
Can you fit a 13,6 inch Macbook in it comfortably?
Shouldn’t be a problem
Only disclaimer is that I no longer own this bag to test - but I believe a 13 inch laptop will fit without incident
What is the max size of laptop can fit?
Tablet Sleeve:
14.5'' x 10'' (36.8 cm x 25.4 cm)
Would a 15” laptop fit in this sling?
I think it caps out at 13” unless maybe it’s a an xps15 from dell
I would say likely not. I can fit my Asus Zephyrus G14 and it is almost where the zipper would have to be forced around the corners of the laptop. I just barely get away with it. Dimensions of my laptop: 12.28" x 8.94"
How many liters is it?
Listed as 11 liters.
Hands up, who else says BOOOM out loud at the start of the videos 🤣
🙌🏻
Is it going to fit my macbook?
nvm, you hadnt gotten to the laptop sleeve lol. but still i have a 14 inch mbp. Will it fit?
Surface Laptop 4 13.5”: 12.1” x 8.8” x 0.57” (308 mm x 223 mm x 14.5 mm) - that's the dimensions of the laptop I tested.
This bag can fit a MacBook 13” ?
Yes
Is it waterproof?
nope.
Is this good on water proofing?
I don’t think I would pick this up for its waterproof qualities. The material will be OK, but I think the zippers would be a failure point for a heavy rain.
Como hago para adquirirla desde Milano , Italia,
I’m sorry - I’m not sure how to purchase this bag from Italy.
i have to much bags..i love t.n.f i think the price should drop down to $25 lol..
I agree lol
Does this sling have long enough shoulder strap for a 90kg / 180cm male?
Judging from your video, the shoulder strap is way to shortl - when you put the sling on the back, the strap jumps right under your armpit and I'd say it's very unconfortable!
And majority of the pictures you can google about it show mainly females use this sling...
Not to mention, when I bought The North face Borealis 6L Sling it was so damn small - to small even for my wife and it ended up as a sling for my 8 years old song!
So now I'm in doubt about this Base Camp Voyager as well...
P.S. It's not a claim, just a question....
Cause I've faced the same issue with too short shoulder strap with Thule Tact 8L sling as well...
At the same time, Patagonia Atom 8L Sling has NO problem and could fit even the really big guy
I reviewed the borealis, and I totally agree. That sling is comically small. I didn’t find that THIS sling was too small or too uncomfortable. If you hit me up on Instagram, I’ll send you some pictures of how the sling rides on me when I’m wearing it. @bitofawander
One year later and its $20 more, ugh
Ouch
That looks nothing like a sling bag. More like a full-size backpack. Not even a water bottle carrier and why would you need a laptop on a sling bag? Absolute trash.
