Hey everyone,

It finally feels like spring is settling in here in Portland. With May just around the corner, we’re feeling refreshed, inspired, and looking forward to longer days and more time outdoors. A highlight of spring for me is the return of after work daylight.

Just a quick note that our Earth Day sale is still going strong through May 3rd—use code EARTHDAY22 at checkout if you’ve had your eye on something.

Wishing you a bright and easy rest of your week,

Flight 30 Ultra Running Backpack

"Because of this backpack, I was able to be out hiking/running at Lacamas Lake on a rainy day and ended up sharing the trail with one of the black tailed deer that live in the area. (I'm loving this backpack and am looking forward to more outings with it.)"
