The North Face Borealis Sling Backpack

{"reviews":[{"id":7571875,"locale":"en_US","rating":3,"title":"Did the designers look at the bag?","text":"I read a LOT of comments before getting this bag, yet, I am still baffled at how almost awesome it is, yet it sucks. \n\nYeah, the water bottle holder is beyond tiny. I thought a normal thin bottle would fit. Nope. It's smaller than a can.\n\nThe strap is truly short. And the strap is 3/4 wide, vs 1 inch wide. So tiny strap, tiny buckle, crazy short. \n\nThere are more points. But it feels like the designers made this on a computer, and never made a mockup before sending it out to be mass produced. I can't see how this WAS wanted to make.","textLength":538,"csFlag":false,"inappropriateFlag":false,"reviewedFlag":false,"autoModerated":false,"published":true,"incentivized":false,"upVotes":0,"downVotes":0,"orderId":null,"dimensions":[],"responses":[],"tags":[],"media":{"photo":[],"video":[],"audio":[]},"user":{"nickName":"AV","firstName":null,"lastName":null,"emailAddress":null,"externalId":null,"city":"Denver, CO","state":null,"country":null,"ageRange":null,"badge":null,"shopperProfiles":[]},"reviewedDate":null,"purchaseDate":null,"dateCreated":"2025-11-30T00:00:00-05:00","customData":[],"incentiveType":null,"campaign":null,"deviceFingerprint":null,"topics":[{"name":"shoulder strap","score":0.48},{"name":"water bottle holder","score":0.72}],"syndication":{"sourceName":"The North Face","siteUrl":"https://www.thenorthface.com/","logoUrl":"https://images.turnto.com/site/syndicationlogos/3480_LH48.png"},"catalogItems":[{"sku":"1486-NF0A52UP","title":"The North Face Borealis Green/Blue","url":"https://www.scheels.com/p/1486-NF0A52UP","category":"accessories-sling-drawstring-bags","reviewCount":625,"ratingCount":625,"averageRating":4.5,"ratingBreakdown":{"1":17,"2":25,"3":41,"4":69,"5":473},"active":true,"attributes":[]}]},{"id":7560055,"locale":"en_US","rating":5,"title":"Great for a day hike or day to day!","text":"Roomier than I expected and super comfy to wear.
