The North Face Borealis Back pack

The Borealis Classic removes the need to switch bags when you swap dirt for concrete. With 29 litres of space, it's roomy enough for extra hiking layers and a packed lunch, or gym essentials, books and in a dedicated pocket your laptop. The hip belt and sternum strap offer extra comfort when hiking with a heavy load, but you can stow or remove them when commuting. And a padded, air mesh back panel and foam straps ensure the Borealis Classic is comfortable wherever you're walking. Let's not forget a front stash pocket and two water bottle pockets and a secondary compartment you can't say we didn't give you enough organisation options.
