The North Face Borealis Sling Bag - Black

The Borealis Sling Backpack features a non-PFC durable water-repellent (DWR) finish, which helps protect against light moisture. It is not fully waterproof, so for heavy rain, consider additional waterproofing for sensitive items.

The dedicated tablet sleeve is designed to accommodate most standard tablets and larger smartphones. For exact dimensions, measure your device and compare it to the bag's internal capacity, or test it at a retail location if possible.

Hand wash only with a mild detergent and cool water. Do not machine wash, tumble dry, iron, or bleach. Air dry thoroughly in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat or sunlight.

The external bungee compression system is perfect for stashing items you need quick access to, such as a light jacket, hat, gloves, or a small blanket. It helps to compress bulky items securely against the bag.

Yes, the shoulder strap is fully adjustable to accommodate a wide range of body types and preferences, ensuring a comfortable and secure fit.

Adjust the padded shoulder strap to distribute weight more evenly across your body. Ensure heavier items are positioned closer to your back for better balance.

While the bag features a durable water-repellent (DWR) finish, it is not fully waterproof. For heavy rain or extremely sensitive items like electronics, consider using additional internal dry bags for protection.

Ensure the item is correctly placed under all bungee cords. Check if the bungee cord has sufficient tension; if it feels loose, try adjusting how the item is folded or placed to provide a tighter compression.
