Eco-Friendly Materials

The North Face Borealis 28L Urban Backpack black/black/npf is made from recycled materials, highlighting the brand's commitment to the environment. The product is free from harmful PFC compounds, making it more planet-friendly. The use of a DWR coating increases moisture resistance, which is beneficial in changing weather conditions.

The North Face Borealis 28L Urban Backpack - Features:

  • 28-litre capacity allowing the carrying of daily items;
  • Dedicated laptop compartment providing protection for electronic devices;
  • FlexVent™ carrying system enhancing wearing comfort;
  • Adjustable shoulder straps allowing for personalisation to individual needs;
  • Hip belt and chest strap stabilising the backpack while in motion;
  • Reflective elements increasing visibility in low-light conditions;
  • Reliable and smooth-operating YKK® zippers;
  • Construction from recycled materials underlining environmental care;
  • DWR coating enhancing moisture resistance;
  • Free from harmful PFC compounds in the materials used for production.
DWR
The DWR coating makes the fabric water repellent, so that water forms droplets on its surface and runs off instead of soaking in. This protects the fabric from getting wet quickly, providing greater comfort in wet conditions, but does not guarantee full water repellency.
YKK®
Designation of the reliable zippers of the Japanese brand YKK®, used in high-end sportswear and accessories.
FlexVent™
Carrying system used in The North Face brand backpacks. The lumbar panel provides air circulation and the padded back panel ensures comfort on long hikes. The shoulder straps are lined with foam, moulded under high pressure. They sit well on the shoulders without causing pressure and relieving pressure on the collarbone.

    The colour does not match

    In reality the colour is much lighter. In the photos it looks almost black and in fact it is a medium grey

    Practical and useful

    I've only used it in the city/metropolis, at the office, but also daily when I walk and/or cycle a lot.
    It has many compartments to put devices, bike lock, water, clothes and many other odds and ends. The back padding and straps are comfortable and a big plus.
    I haven't used it for hiking yet, but will soon.
    Overall, I am very happy with the product.

    Practical, durable and useful

    I use this rucksack for metropolis city life, especially when walking or cycling, and in the office. It has several useful compartments for devices, bike lock, water, small change, etc.
    It is 100% synthetics/plastics, which is why I recommend you burn the remaining tin ends with a lighter. I haven't taken it hiking yet, but I will soon. The good thing is that it also comes with a whistle which is useful for bears and/or other emergency situations.
