EXCEPTIONAL CRAFTMANSHIP & PERFECT SIZE - A BACKPACK THAT DELIVERS! I recently purchased a backpack by Portland Gear. I couldn't be more thrilled with my purchase as it's often a challenge to find a backpack that strikes the perfect balance between my 5’4” stature and spacious enough to hold all my essentials while maintaining a sleek and manageable profile. This backpack accomplishes that effortlessly. It boasts ample storage space, allowing me to comfortably fit everything I need for my d...

Got this just in time for my trip to Costa Rica! It’s the perfect oversized shirt to wear while exploring or to use as a swim suit cover up. I always love repping Portland Gear wherever I go.

Bought this backpack as a birthday gift for my son's girlfriend who is a high school math teacher in Harrisburg, PA. She loves everything about this backpack...color, size, compartments. This has become her "school bag" and holds everything she needs for her day as a teacher. This company was a pleasure to order from and I appreciated all the small touches they apply when ordering from. Would highly recommend to anyone!

I absolutely love this jacket. It gets a lot of positive attention and seems to be well made. I like how light and breathable it is too. I think it looks best when combined with a hoodie. Thanks Portland Gear!

Absolutely LOVE my Cascade travel kit. It's bug enough to fit all my stuff without being crowded, but not so big it takes up too much space. I also love that the top stays open, that's been my issue with all my travel kits. A keeper

I could not be happier with my purchases from Portland Gear - the standard and compact Cascade backpacks & 2 cascade kits. The kits (one for personal items, one for electronics) make it very easy to switch between the compact Cascade backpack for day trip and the standard Cascade backpack for travel.

Amazing quality Love all your products! The smaller Bag is perfect for my work. Also the sling bag is cool! I like it but could need an updated design maybe less mesh and add another hidden pocket or two. Thanks guys keep up the good work.

Bought this two nights before a two week Europe trip, and absolutely love it! Sturdy, holds a ton, waterproof (and you can just wipe it down), useful pockets, padded straps, and fit under the seat of 4 different airlines perfectly. I love that it stands up when you’re getting items out of it, the exterior pockets are great for easy grabs. The trolley sleeve makes it a perfect add to your suitcase. Worth every penny… backed by a lifetime guarantee. Treat yourself!

Love, love, love this backpack! My first trip with it and it has proven to work for everything I need. Rain just wipes off, it fits perfectly on top of my bag and doesn't fall off or tip over, it fits under the seat, it holds everything I need including a blanket, the side water bottle holders are big enough to actually use! The opening is wide enough that it makes finding things a snap. I can't believe I struggled with so many other bags for so long.

I am so happy I ordered this backpack & can’t wait to use it on our upcoming trips! Love the color, all the pockets & that it’s waterproof! The Standard size will be perfect for me! Getting ready to order a second one in black! Great products at Portland Gear! An extra bonus is the “P” is also our initial!!

As a teacher, I am always carrying books, supplies, clothes, food. I've tried every bag and backpack on the market and this is the best bag ever. Today, I was able to put all of my files, my laptop and hard drive, my sneakers, my extra shirt, my food, and my wallet in the bag. Awesome!!

I purchased this bag at a street fair in Portland last weekend. I love this bag and can confirm it works well since I ditched my old backpack and started using this one right away. It's very comfortable on my back, has excellent and well thought out pockets and is water proof. I have a lifetime guarantee on the product too! I highly recommend buying this backpack.

Have been waiting for a backpack that works as hard as I do. I found it in this Portland Gear gem. First day out I was caught in a downpour here in Northern Calif carrying groceries and PG bag inside my work wagon. Rain never got through the bag. Comfy to carry even when loaded down with purse inside and laptop. Looking forward to buying one for my husband. This Hospitality Coordinator is VERY happy! Thank you

LOVE is not a strong enough word for the Cascade backpack. I have 3. One OG with out the luggage strap, new one with and then the compact. Even bought a compact Cascade for my bestie! The quality is great, I get asked about them when I travel or just out and about. The Portland Gear brand is phenomenal!

I had fallen out of love with my former, backpack from a different company. I admit, it was a superficial relationship - more about appearance than function. After a couple of significant water-related fails, I became obsessed with finding a backpack that really works for me. I order several different ones and evaluated carefully. I was determined that this was going to be a longterm relationship. I landed on Portland Gear Cascade. Just a few days ago my partner asked, “still loving your backpa...

OMG I've gone from Chrome to Fjallraven to Lululemon, looking for thee perfect bag. Finally. I use this bag every day. From driving to public transportation, this is an awesome bag. So glad I walked by the store in Portland.

A must have for work travel, it fits my 15 inch corporate laptop and spare monitor perfectly with plenty of room for all my necessities. It’s easy to open for TSA and fits under your seat as a personal item. The straps are comfortable but not too bulky and the luggage strap is super convenient. I’ve tried so many bags & backpacks for travel, this one is elite. 🔥

Love this backpack! The way that it opens allows you to fit stuff into it in a better way than traditional backpacks with multiple compartments. I got the tan color because the salesperson told me that the black color shows more smudges and fingerprints.

This has worked great as my pumping bag going back to work post baby! It fits my pump, small cooler bag, plenty of water/drinks and my lunch/snacks. I've also been impressed that the side pockets will hold a 48 oz water bottle.

I need a waterproof backpack. Being a native Oregonian who now lives in SE Alaska, I have several friends who are most likely responsible for Portland Gear popping up on the one social media platform that I check in on. But in this case, it is a good thing. I zipped the regular-size backpack closed, sat it backpack outside for about two hours, empty of course, to test it out. Even the zipper "cloth" edges didn't leak water inside. Getting over 108 inches of rain last year, I wanted to make sure...

My daughter introduced me to this bag, while in town on my way to LA stopped into the store and brought one. I quickly transferred my stuff for a 5 day trip into this backpack. Everything fit! I just love this bag, it will be my go to travel bag from now on.

You can’t find a better backpack! TSA agent was so impressed, they asked me to step over during the check. I assumed there was an issue but they wanted to know where I got it because it was the best backpack they’d ever seen (and they see a lot!). Told him Portland Gear and he planned to order one that day. Best backpack I’ve ever owned and apparently TSA approves too!

So glad I found this bag! It is currently experiencing a 6 week tour of the Mediterranean with me, starting in Barcelona. Perfect size and received compliments on it at the airport.

I have bought 3 standard size and 1 compact size and I couldn’t be more pleased with each purchase. I have it in olive, and the black is for my daughter. This bag is the most comfortable to carry, holds so much and is turning into my “go to” bag! I’m tempted to buy another one for myself that is compact because I like the bag so much!!

This will be a great travel bag with plenty of room for meds, first aid stuff, bug spray, misc personal needs and sun screen etc. as you can see, there is plenty of room inside as well as two additional outside pockets. I love that it stands open so is easy to see inside. Will be using this often for weekend trips and a cruise trip later this year. Thumbs up for another great Portland Gear product!!

So far I really like this bag. It fits everything I need on a day basis plus some room for more. So far the only thing I would add would be a key leash of some sort. Right now I have my keys on a lanyard looped around the bottom loop and stuffed into a bottle pocket. The bag is solidly constructed and will stand up on its own. The wide opening at the top and lighter lining makes it easy to see and get things in and out of the bag. I'm still in the process of adjusting to a new bag, I bought thi...

I bought this hat in pink, and instantly fell in love with it. I have a tiny head, and since it’s adjustable it fits perfectly on my peanut. I went back a day later and bought the light grey. So cute!

Where can I begin to express how much I love this backpack?? Not only the fact that we, as proud Washingtonians, like to support local businesses, but the design and the quality of this product are absolutely fantastic!! Just beautifully built, very practical and very well appealing to the eye overall. Taking it out now for its first ride to Italy and can't wait to come back to the US to order another one for myself as my husband already stole it from me!!

After I purchased the Portland Gear compact backpack and found the most perfect travel bag, I decided it was time to get organized and replace my jumbled plastic bag - that I use for all my small bits and pieces - with this Cascade kit. I’m thrilled. Same excellent quality and they have thought of everything! Compact, spacious, practical and extremely well made.

This backpack is everything I wanted and needed for my hiking girl’s trip to Utah. It is incredibly roomy, fits under an airplane seat, is comfortable and looks great. The way it opens is genius! Thank you, Portland Gear— I can’t wait to let the matching toiletries kit!

Love this backpack! I am so happy with the quality of it. The price point is way lower than it could be. Was in the fence for a while with it because so many bags have left me down so I figured just stick with being marginally unhappy —- glad I pulled the trigger. Should have got this long ago! Would be a great gift too

Only had it one day, but it’s the perfect backpack for my mobile office as I travel from school to school. It’s so spacious, and I’m already getting tons of compliments. I hope it holds up and I can keep this beautiful color clean. The waterproof material is awesome. The wide opening makes transitioning so easy.

I was waiting for the Cloud color to be back in stock, but I've been looking at this bag for almost a year. I love it! It's the perfect size for work or to carry on a flight. Super comfortable straps. The material isn't slick but has a little texture. It's great. I had a knockoff version of this for a while that didn't last. I'm so excited to have this one for years.

Really great backpack. It’s comfortable on your back or 1strap shoulder carry. Holds a ton of stuff. I took it to Europe for a meeting and it easily held laptop, iPad, second screen, headset, snacks, water bottle and had so much more room that I threw in an extra pair of work slacks too. It could only be better with a few more pockets on the inside. I looked around a long time before I got this and I’m so glad I did. And completely filled, it fit under the seat. The top opening is PERFECT.

This t-shirt is super comfortable, it's clearly 100% cotton! I love it. I just moved to Denver and having Portland gear makes me feel closer to home. One of the best parts is the phrase. But it's definitely a great quality. I'm usually size S and this is M. But it feels more comfortable and relaxed.
