Borealis Sling Bag combines compact versatility with adventure-ready features
What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:
"The Borealis Sling Bag is my favorite grab-and-go option for short hikes or urban adventures. It’s lightweight but still fits everything I need, from a tablet to a water bottle. The padded strap and fleece-lined pocket are nice touches that make it comfortable and functional for everyday use."
For quick outings or streamlined adventures, the The North Face Borealis Sling Bag packs a punch in a compact package. Inspired by the iconic Borealis backpack, this sling offers the same beloved bungee storage system but in a smaller, more portable design. Its main compartment features a mesh pocket and key hook for easy organization, while a padded sleeve fits a tablet or large phone securely.
Thoughtfully designed for modern explorers, the Borealis Sling Bag includes a fleece-lined pocket for delicate essentials, like sunglasses or electronics, and a side water bottle holder for easy hydration on the go. The adjustable, padded shoulder strap ensures all-day comfort and even includes a secure-zip pocket for quick access to your phone or other necessities. Built with 210D recycled nylon ripstop and finished with a durable, water-repellent coating, this bag can handle spontaneous rain showers or everyday wear and tear with ease.

Yes
.Exactly what I needed. The small compartment easily fits an iPad Mini, and the side pocket can hold a 16oz water bottle without issue. The strap pocket has a tight fit for bigger phones A flashlight and pepper spray fit perfectly with extra room to spare. There's also a dedicated sunglasses pouch lined with soft microfiber fabric to prevent scratching.

Its a nice little pack but it is little.
I thought I would use this for hiking and I love the sling. However, I would have difficulty fitting two bottles of water, snacks, and a mini first aid kit in this. There really is not much room.

My forever sling bag
I used this bag for my New Work trip. I have never been one to use sling bags or fanny packs. But WOW was this bag simply useful for the whole week in NYC. It carried everything I needed and MORE. After that experience with it I can honestly say if any damage happens to the sling bag I bought I would 1000% buy it again.

Extremely useful. Took it to New York and absolutely convenient. I've never used a sling bag/fanny pack but loved how it could fit all my belongings and some extra stuff I bought at New York. 100/10 would recommend.

Best sling bag ever
Awesome bag! I just switched from a Diesel sling bag to the North Face Borealis and couldn't be happier. The size is perfect, not to big on your chest but has the room to carrie my essentials. The purple color is great.
