I recently bought the standard in Cloud. The features are exactly as advertised. The top opens wide, items are accessible and will hold everything I need for my upcoming trips to Hawaii and Europe. I love that it is waterproof since I will be in Europe in the rainy winter. The extra security of the snaps on the handles are a nice feature also. My husband liked mine so much I purchased one in black for him.

When You live in Oregon, it rains. You can tell when people aren't from Oregon...they used umbrellas. Oregonian's wear a lot of hoody's, jeans, sweat pants. We are pretty casual, making rain resisted hoody...brilliant. Love the way they fit, a and look 👏👏👏 Design Team! I'm 70, love the backpack, always use a backpack, they keep me balanced. Looking forward to more! XJody

Just returned from Tokyo over the New Year. Travel was very fast paced but my Portland Gear backpack streamlined and simplified my packing and unpacking from location to location! It was the “perfect” travel companion! Love it, now own both sizes; best purchases for travel in a long time

Perfect size. Quality craftsmanship. Love the color. Love the way the bag opens so you can see everything and organize with ease. For me it will be the perfect carry on for trips where I have a checked bag as well. It will hold my travel essentials and then some.

I used this recently as a toiletry bag for my trip. If you're trying to pack full size bottles they won't fit, but my electric toothbrush, my soap dish that has my solid shampoo and conditioner bars, full size toothpaste, deodorant, face wash, lotions etc all fit great. Put a few make up items in thr side with the elastic straps and a few in the other outside zipper case along with my reusable cotton facial pads. Everything fit and it worked great. It can be used for many different things. Would...

I love the color, design, and wide opening when you open the zipper as well as the sturdy waterproof material. I have purchased both sizes (black, capers) and compact size was enough for my work. my mac book fits in the sleeve perfectly with couple of notepads. compartment has good enough space for my stuff including lunch and water bottle. One downside: if you want to take anything from the bag, you have to open the zipper all the way otherwise you cannot even put your hand in (which is great ...

I absolutely LOVE the Cascade Backpacks and would buy one in every color if I could afford it. My favorite is the pink one. However, I just ran into a problem with mine. Is there any type of warranty on the Cascade Backpacks? My daughter bought me one for my birthday this past July 2024 and I absolutely love it. I've been trying to keep it clean and was told to use clorox wipes. However, I recently noticed that the color or outer layer of the bag is starting to peel off at the corners and ...

I gave this to my daughter's boyfriend for Christmas this year. He loved the feel of the hat and especially loved the "P" logo. I have purchased from Portland Gear before and have always been impressed with the selection, price and easy shipping.

I received a Portland Gear Cascade backpack about a year ago and absolutely love it! When it came time to purchase some customized swag for our business, I immediately thought of the Cascade backpack. I got in touch with Portland Gear and Eli was incredible to work with! We had a typical non-profit budget, and Portland Gear was able to accommodate us and we received our incredible bags in record time, just before Christmas! The bags are strong, convenient, beautiful, and made with such high ...

I typically wear a women's M in most clothes and in my PG items I'm usually a L as the unisex items are more boxy so I prefer a baggier fit. This quote is absolutely fire and makes me feel like I LOVE Portland even more (if that's even possible.) But I secretly (pspspsps) am hoping for a light pink and red one in a women's cut!

Love these packs. I received the original pack from the TedX conference and loved it. This pack is even better with the luggage strap! Love the material, the size, and how light weight it is. Perfect pack for work + travel!

This Portland Gear cascade backpack is INCREDIBLE!!! It has everything I need in a backpack. It is water resistant, nice and roomy! You can open it and set it down and see everything you have in this backpack. It will be great for my summer trip to Ecuador. This is a WINNER!

I've never owned a backpack before. So when I needed one for a special trip I looked at so many before choosing this one. I love it! It is lightweight with lots of compartments and the opening is perfection! Makes it so easy to see what's inside. Highly recommend it!!

So far, it’s perfect!! I just ordered the smaller size as well!! I do have to say, the “off gassing” odor is very strong still after several days. Not liking that at all!!

I bought this as a Christmas gift for a friend. She had been looking at it on line and wanted to buy it. It arrived at my PO the day I was going to visit her so I did not get to open it before I gave it to her. She was so excited to open it Christmas day! It had so many features she was looking for in this style-fits her laptop, drink carrier, strap for placing over luggage hande when traveIing and the quaity of craftsmanship-sturdy construction, heavy duty zippers, waterproof exterior, extra po...

My backpack just arrived and I already love how lightweight it is, and how easy to access. My 14" laptop in a protective sleeve fits perfectly. I loaded it up and wore it for a short walk and it is super comfortable to wear. I think it's a winner!

My husband loves his new compact backpack in Tan. Yea him for getting the tan one. I have the YELLOW one, and love mine ,too. He uses his new compact backpack for everyday use. He is a minister and takes loads of heavy Bibles and resources to church. The backpack makes his task of coming and going more manageable and I might add, a bit more stylish.... He loves the the handles. He loves that it opens conveniently. We are going on a cross country adventure on Amtrak in May. Excited to use our Po...

A little darker than it appeared, I’d call it a dove gray, which is great as I was a little worried about marks. All that to say it very easily wipes clean. Love the amount of room, I carry a wireless keyboard with me and able to fit a ton of things in this bag. Love that it stands. The two side pockets are really roomy. Just an awesome bag.

Best backpack! Love the convenient top opening to make it so much easier to pack and find stuff compared to a standard backpack! It’s durable and beautiful and with a lifetime warranty what’s not to love?!

I had looked for the perfect bag/backpack for work for several months. This backpack is exactly what I had in mind! I work at a hospital, so carry my purse, water and my meals, among a few other things. Everything fits, it is comfortable and saves my shoulder and back. I am so happy with this product! And it’s rainproof. It’s well made. I have a bit of a hike from the parking lot to my office, so I needed to have something that held all the items i need throughout the day. I highly reco...

The most unique thing about this piece of travel luggage is it's opening! It completely opens at the top for ease of access and ability to survey the bag's contents. Love it!

I bought this sign as a graduation gift last year for my son to use in his college dorm room. He loved it! Unfortunately, the sign began to flicker after several months. However, I can't say enough about the customer service we received to help us. They replaced the sign (including postage) with no questions asked. This level of customer service is rare and it definitely makes me a believer in this brand. Thank you so much!!!

Fantastic backpack - took it to Europe and it was perfect for carry on. Also loved it for daily use on vacation - plenty of space for sunglasses/jacket/water and could fit our daily market purchases in as well. LOVED the waterproof fabric, stay-open top and that there are plenty of pockets that are thoughtfully placed. I vacillated between the larger and compact and so happy I chose the compact - plenty of space without being too large. Well constructed and excellent quality. I would absolutely ...

hands down the best carry all backpack ever! I bought 2 for myself, sent one to a friend for her birthday and she loves it. Stylish enough to use as a work bag and great for travel. After seeing my bags my sister bought 4 to give as gifts.

I'm preparing for a trip to Alaska. I'll have 7 days on land and 7 days on ship. During the land days, I'm only allowed a backpack and carry on size luggage and this looks like the perfect backpack!

This was a replacement for a bag that I bought in November. The zipper failed and Jennifer was quick to remedy the situation. I am a flight attendant and use this bag every single trip. I get multiple compliments daily and have even purchased a bag for a friend of mine. Thank you again!!

I orieingally bought the compact backpack. I loved it! But, I thought it might be good to get a larger version for traveling nd I'm so glad I did. Let's just say these backpacks are very well made. I love the storage options and that I can carry what I need when I travel, plus I can easily place it under the seat in front of me, regardless of which seat I'm sitting in.

This has been a great bag to travel with. It holds a lot, stands up and stays open when packing it, fits under the seat in an airplane, loops over the handle on a suitcase for easy transport through airports and hotel lobbies and is rugged and attractive. I bought one for my husband and one for my son for their birthdays. Then I was envious of them, so bought one for myself. Loving it!

Honestly, I wasn't sure about this purchase. My son had to have them so we went for it. To my surprise, they are unbelievably cool. They hit at the perfect length. He said they are comfortable, and the compliments are rapid fire. What a fun and unexpected surprise!

Best backpack I’ve purchased! I absolutely love how it opens from the top and I can easily find whatever I need without having to removed everything. Plenty of zipper pockets to keep small items.

Love the way the top opens and makes it easy to see and get to everything in the bag. Also like the front snap to keep straps from falling off shoulder. Plenty of compartments.

LOVING this bag! I spent several weeks looking at every backpack and bag I could find online. The style and features of this one made it perfect for my needs. I’ve been using it a couple of weeks and have flown with it twice- and it is the perfect underwear bag for me. Tons of room, keeps things organized, and looks great.

Love it as much as I love my standard size backpack! The compact backpack works well for everyday use while I can use my standard size one for weekend and 2-3 day trips. The color Cloud is beautiful! Thanks for creating a great backpack.

We love this bag. Love that it stands up to the weather here. Love that when the zipper broke you replaced the bag for us. Actually, loved it so much bought one for our daughter, and there are so many cute colors this season.

Isobel S.Verified
It's just a really simple and practical bag. It has my essential requirements: it holds everything, it has some pockets but isn't fussy, it stands up by itself, it has two water bottle holders, the inside is bright so stuff is easy to see, it's rugged but not ugly, and it's not another boring black backpack.

Cheyenne K.Verified
So cute and extremely comfortable. I haven't worn them in the rain yet and didn't see anything in the description about water resistance. Im guessing these are more of a summer shoe. But, Living in Portland, it would be nice of that was a feature.

Denae S.Verified
It is very durable, high quality, and weather resistant. I wore it in the rain (here in the rainy RIPCITY) and there was not even marks after the water dried/ rolled off. There is so much space for my laptop, smaller tech accessories, notebook, a pencil pouch, a few personal items, and 2 shirts (at once).

I am so pleased with my "B grade" Cascade backpack! I already have a full-priced one, but it was the previous version without the luggage sleeve. Now I have the luggage sleeve, and I honestly can't find what makes this "B grade!" Thank you, P Gear for your attention to quality and detail that I can't even tell the difference!
