Why We Like The Borealis Mini 10L Backpack

The Borealis Mini saves us from juggling our coffee mug, lunch, snacks, books, and all the other little things we might need throughout the day. The compact size fits those essentials without bulking our look, while the rugged build stands its own against bustling sidewalks and crowded subways rides.

The backpack is compact and lightweight, with a comfortable design and roomy main compartment. It is praised for its versatility as an everyday bag or for short trips.

Love!

I use this as my purse! As my shoulders were hurting from my purse strap bc I carry a lot of things. This fit everything I keep in my bag. The "water bottle" pockets don't fit water bottles, however I stash electrolyte packets on one side and phone on the other. The main compartment does fit both 32oz and 40oz owala water bottles. I use a carabiner to carry my water bottle on the daisy chain. I grabbed this one and bunch of similar bags/slinga at Scheels dumped out my purse and chose the bag that fit everything.

The perfect size and comfort level.

I bought this specifically for Disneyland visits as I recently started my first annual pass so know I'll be going often. It's roomy enough and easy to organize in the pockets all the essentials to take plus more. And is small and light for my small older frame.

No

I ordered the bigger bag which is shown in the picture. The bag I received is so small, like a pocket book. Completely misleading picture. Disappointed.

Love the color and quality

Great size for my seeds. Holds a wallet, glasses, phone, etc. I use it rather than a purse.

Love, love the Mini Me bag!

My granddaughter loves this bag. She has volleyball first thing each morning so she uses this small bag to take her change of clothes! Plus it matches her larger North Face bag! It's a mini me! Thank you for giving us so many choices!

Water bottle, ha!

Great bag but if you carry an actual tumbler, like a 16oz Stanley. It takes all your strength to get in the pocket.

Perfect size for day excursions and hikes!

Just traveled to Scotland and this pack was perfect for day city excursions and for long day hikes throughout Scotland. I love it! It's a perfect size! It fit in my carry on easily. As I had my carry on and a larger backpack to take all I needed for the trip without checking any bags.

Best small backpack

It's probably the best miniature back pack out there. Even over small 5.11, and Oakley bags, and I have a ton of all these.
