Cloud is not as bright as expected. I'd hoped for a better match to my Ricardo luggage. Cloud is very grey. The colors are not well represented online. This was a swing & a miss.

I just came back from a weekend trip. This was my only carrying bag. Packed it with the clothing and essentials for the trip. It worked wonderfully. Every item got a place. Highly recommended. Ah and this is one of three…

So nice, had to do it twice! They definitely are very comfortable. And they do feel like stepping on grass when you wear them barefooted. Definitely cannot wait for more colors!

I recently received my bag. I have been looking for a sturdy bag for traveling. I love that it is durable and waterproof. The size is great for a few days and most of all I can take it in the plane.

I absolutely love this bag! It fits my huge work laptop and all of my paperwork and it’s not too heavy on my back. Plus I love that it opens up all the way at the top so I can find what I need quickly. So far I’d give it a 10/10.

I love the water-resistant material, large mouth opening at the top, super comfy shoulder straps, and overall design. This is a well made product. I usually hate backpacks because you have to dig deep to find anything, but the large opening at the top is a game changer and my laptop fits perfectly.

Tricia S.Verified

I was looking for a new backpack because the one I had didn’t have enough space for everything I needed and never fit my water bottle. I ordered this on a whim & I couldn’t be happier!! This is the PERFECT bag for my everyday & clinical rotations while I’m in nursing school- tons of load capacity, stands up when you put it down to rummage, the right amont of pockets (love the secret one behind the small front pocket) and FINALLY water bottle holders that fit my 32oz water bottle with room to ...

Tova P.Verified

I love this hat! I am a map nerd and a hat nerd so this is basically perfect. I only wish that the map itself was high-visibility. Great materials - feels really nice on my head. And the interior roses are 💯. Also I love the stretchy, adjustable back - what a good design. Thank you.

Ryan B.Verified

❤️ Love when you open this backpack up you can see everything, even small items all the way down at the bottom!! Holds a lot, easy to pack. Performs great in the rain, really like the look & feel of the material. Super comfortable on you back, straps don’t dig in. Also comfy thrown over one shoulder too. Bit worried about how big the pockets are for water bottles {designed to hold 32oz} I have a regular 24oz, holds it no problem. My only design note would be: zipper pocket on the inside, wou...

I bought this gift T-shift from Portland Gear to my Daughter and she loves it! The cotton material feels soft, high quality-made. Awesome design with "OR" and "PORTLAND" made stylishly - It's phenomenal. Threaded nicely. A Relaxed-fit just right for my Daughter. It's kick ass T-shirt I never regret buying! I would purchase again with Portland Gear <3

Vanessa L.Verified

Gorgeous colour Beautiful design Please reconsider putting a snap rather than Velcro on the inside where the Velcro can catch lots of clothing anything from the scarf to a spare jumper. Anything but denim can be properly ruined by Velcro.!

Amy D.Verified

This bag fits all of my work items plus the little things I like to keep close…essential oils, utensil set and all the charging cords. The bonus is with all of that the bag doesn’t feel heavy while wearing. Great bag!

My favorite new beanie! Material keeps me warm while outside and is lightweight enough to wear indoors. Really well made and the logo is just the right size. Love it! I have a few in different colors. Get yours today!! 😀

Pam C.

The quality of this bag is amazing! I’m so impressed. Portland Gear have thought of everything. I chose the compact backpack because the size is perfect as a personal item on flights. I had no idea it would be so roomy and light to carry! I travel a lot and different airlines have different size allowances for carry on and personal items. I have been caught out before! This will be perfect but I may just have to also buy the backpack…….!

I couldn't love the design of this shirt any more than I already do. But can we talk about the shirt itself? It fits like a dream and is incredibly soft - this company just doesn't miss! Do yourself a favor and buy this ASAP

Love the shirt great fit nice material love the simplicity of the shirt only wish it came in other colors and with black stitching wore it last week for the first time and enjoyed it a lot.

Katie K.Verified

LOVE THIS BAG. It is large enough to fit all the necessities (whether it be diapers and snacks, or an extra shirt and work stuff), but not too big to be a burden and load you down.

I was looking for a simple/sleek trucker style hat that I could wear around in the summer. I found this one and it’s exactly what I was looking for in a hat.

I’ve the original Cascade for over a year & it is my go to bag for extended weekends & personal bag for flights. I love it & debated reordering it for the improved features. Decided in the end to go with the compact size & I’m glad I did. I have an upcoming 2 week trip to South Korea & although I normally only take 1 bag - my plan is to convert my travel backpack to carry & use this as my backpack. Will hold camera equipment, iPad mini and everything else I want under the seat. Now I need the Ca...

Absolutely love this backpack. It is simple, but looks really nice. It don't have a lot of pockets, but it's okay because the bag is big. It is very roomy, and I appreciate how wide the opening is. I put everything in it and since the opening is wide, you can see everything inside . It is waterproof. I really like this bag, comfy and pretty.

Alexandra M.Verified

This was my favorite beanie until I got Portland Gears Black and Red beanie with the pom. BUT this is still my favorite non-pommed beanie. It is so thick, the colors are GORGEOUS in person, and it is insanely comfortable, which is why I've fallen asleep in it many times. I thought I lost it once and I cried.

This beanie is so thick and high quality, it is my new favorite! I literally slept in it last night. Very roomy and comfortable but not too tight or too loose.

I love sharing my Portland pride. It's been a unique decoration for my office. It's beautiful, colorful and reminds me of the first time I came to the city. Cheers!

Serena D.Verified

I highly recommend this backpack! Good quality, secret pockets, and bigger than expected. The waterproof zipper clasps and fabric look really professional and clean. The waterbottle pockets and straps for the backpack could be improved. I find the straps are kind of narrow for the size of the pack and are constantly slipping so that the pack isn't fitting in the way I would like.

Collin S.Verified

This is the most comfortable sweatshirt I've ever owned, and I'm not exaggerating when I say that. The color is amazing, the fit of the sweatshirt is perfect, and the warmth is spot on. I've never been happier with a purchase before!

Caitlin M.Verified

Bought this just in time for the latest Northern California storm. I’m obsessed with it. I love, love, love how easy it is to find everything because of the way the backpack opens at the top. The straps are comfy. Everything I need fits in there easily without making the backpack itself huge. All of my stuff has stayed dry throughout the rainstorms. I’m really kinda obsessed with it. I don’t think I’ve ever been so excited about a backpack purchase.

Neal F.Verified

The White Stag Sign is my favorite landmark in Portland, so when I saw this, I just had to get it. I absolutely love it! It's bigger than I expected it to be, and it comes with a remote and multiple settings. This is a great addition for anyone who loves Portland.

Christian M.Verified

I was looking for a backpack with more room, and a very large main compartment. This is it! Large side pockets, straps that are padded and don’t slip. Bonus that it’s water resistant!

Mc L.Verified

Awesome back pack! I have been traveling lately and always have issues finding bags that can handle what I end up carrying with me… this back pack was able to fit 3 computers (yes I need to bring that many sometimes on work trips), papers, passport, water bottle, chargers, travel toiletries and it even fit my purse on top…. I can’t wait to bring it in its first trip… no more bring a rolling bag and backpack on weekend trips. Everything will fit in this bag … Yay! Thank you Portland Gear!

no regrets with this purchase. trumps my other northface backpack by 100x , considering they are comparable in price. i love the fact that this bag keeps the structure and frame really well - especially if you plan on carrying around textbooks and whatnot for school. the material is very portland suited and repels water/rain pretty well.

Theresa Q.Verified

Absolutely love this backpack. Waterproof, heavy duty zipper, wide mouth opening for easy access to everything. I can carry everything I need for work each day in the compact size, including lunch! Nice pockets on the inside. The only issue is the exterior side pockets for water bottles are pretty loose, so be careful if you put in keys or a phone. I have shown the pack to all my friends and they want one.

Debra F.Verified

I LOVE this—part briefcase, yet all backpack, I can carry my entire portable studio with me. I have added some zip bags inside but I especially like how everything stays upright with the flat bottom. And no more digging around—the wide, stay-open “mouth” makes it easy to find things. (BTW: Really good idea with the light interior lining). I never leave reviews but this backpack has taken my heart. I’ve used a lot of packs in my (long) life but this is my fav. (Debra Frasier, Author & Illustrato...

I am a teacher and got tired of hauling my tote bag and decided to give this backpack a try to keep my hands free. This bag is really well-made. I love that it is water resistant and has the wide opening. The olive color is really pretty. I’m definitely getting another one.

Michelle H.Verified

I absolutely love this backpack! It has so much room inside but still fits nicely under an airplane seat (an essential need for me). I was actually complimented by fellow travelers a few times during my very first trip using it. This backpack really is everything I was looking for - from the exceptional fabric and durability to the overall style. I am thrilled with my purchase!

Took it to Tahoe for a ski trip, couldn’t believe how much I could pack in it and still carry it. Was great on the plane - fit really well under the seat. Was snowing when walking around and stayed dry. Very happy with my purchase!

I actually bought three; the first one just completed a road trip to Baja with our daughter. She loves it! Jon and I are traveling with these bags — and they are not only a joy to use, they attract attention. Now my DIL wants one.

Steve M.Verified

I have to be honest, I was a bit surprised. The design, materials and craftsmanship are not what we have come to expect. Although 21 liters, not unwieldy very roomy yet, ergonomically compact, forming comfortable carrying positions and conveniently able to stand up while packing. I’ve come to understand, this is not a student or outdoorsy backpack - it is an “adult” backpack where you appreciate the thoughtful design and well executed aesthetics. Portland Gear is great for travel, work or ...

I love this bag so much ! It makes me so happy. The way the top opens and the fact that it sits flat is awesome. It definitely checks all the boxes. I have the standard in Olive. It is nice and roomy. I use it as my briefcase hauling all essentials back and forth from my office. Plenty of room for laptop, lunch and a little purse. Outside pockets are a good size and the back secret pocket is perfect for my cords, mouse etc. Can't wait to travel with it in the Fall. In fact, I liked it so m...
