# Beach Bum Backpacks The Porter and Saturdays Surf Bag is Ready to Hold Some Summer Fun By Michael Hines | Published 2010-04-11 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/porter-and-saturdays References: [highsnobiety](http://www.highsnobiety.com/news/2010/04/11/porter-x-saturdays-surf-bag/) & [bloomingdales](http://www.bloomingdales.com/) I wish I had had the Porter and Saturdays Surf Bag when I was in high school. This backpack has some sleek styling and a cool color scheme, which is all any backpack really needs. Functionality be damned. This backpack is begging to be worn on my back. If only I could somehow make my way to Bloomingdales, where this backpack is being sold. I suppose I would have to hustle up the $295 that the Porter and Saturdays Surf Bag goes for, but that shouldn't be a problem. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.4/10 - Popularity: 30% | Activity: 63% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Hip Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/hipfashion) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Summer Backpacks:** Opportunity to develop functional and stylish backpacks for beach-goers and summer travelers. - **Fashionable Functionality:** Opportunity to create products that combine sleek design with practical features. - **Luxury Backpacks:** Opportunity to tap into the high-end backpack market with premium materials and unique design features. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Fashion & Accessories:** Opportunity for fashion brands to develop their own line of stylish and functional summer backpacks. - **Travel & Leisure:** Opportunity for travel gear companies to create backpacks specifically designed for beach and summertime adventures. - **Luxury Goods:** Opportunity for luxury goods manufacturers to create high-end backpacks for fashion-conscious consumers. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Optimized Airline Travel Bags](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/air-porter-backpack.md) - [Street-Informed Grocery Bags](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/busanexclusive-grocery-bag.md) - [Collaborative Floral-Detailed Nylon Bags](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cecilie-bahnsen-3.md) - [QSR Cafe-Themed Luxe Bags](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/porter-and-starbucks.md) - [Chic Adventure-Ready Backpacks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/long-weekend-morro-convertible-backpack.md) - [Everyday Opulence Backpacks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/151-stealth-backpack.md) - [Contemporary Travel Backpacks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bis-classic-backpack.md) - [Cargo Pocket-Adorned Backpacks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/general-research-parasite-bag.md) - [Celebrity-Coveted Travel Bags](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sprayground-offers.md)
