Po Campo Bags

PO CAMPO: Making Bags as Mobile as You

Po Campo designs bags to carry what you need on and off your bike or scooter with style and ease. We meet the needs of the active lifestyle by designing functional, fashionable and transitional bags. With sustainability and customer lifestyle needs at the forefront of every design, Po Campo is geared to be the brand of choice for the emerging micro-mobile lifestyle.

We listen to the people who matter—our intrepid urban mobility kindreds—and design for you. We are familiar with the struggles of carrying what you need and having a bag that can function for more than just one thing. We are a mobile community going from work to play to picnics to the park and more. We need gear that meets our lifestyle needs. We also know safety and visibility is a concern and therefore thoughtfully weave intelligent pocket systems in with visibility detailing. Our slick strap stow pockets make your bag look like every other fashion bag out there rather than a "bike bag" - but we maintain the design details of an every day outdoor bag - weatherproof, sturdy, easy on and off, and more.

Founder Story
Living in Germany during college, founder Maria Boustead came to love biking as her way to get around. It was eco-friendly and affordable, and she got a little exercise and adventure along the way. It was also super fun, reminding her of the magic of being a kid on a bike. Moving to Chicago—one heckuva flat, gridded city—was a pretty excellent biking decision.

Maria had the bike, but now she needed the bag. As a bicyclist and a professional, she had a lot to carry for everything from commuting to working to meeting up with friends. And, there was a need for a bag that could go along for the ride, and look good after.

Po Campo brings Maria's industrial designer background—when there's a problem, why not solve it with a great product?—to her love of cycling. She couldn't find the bag that worked on the bike and off, so she made one. No more sweaty straps, no more distractions, no more drab and dreary colors.

Today, Po Campo is an internationally distributed line of vegan, weatherproof bags with reflective accents and plenty of pockets for storing your devices. Versatility, function, and style are the heart of our "No Compromise" approach. You don't, and shouldn't, have to choose between a mobile, sustainable lifestyle and a bag that you love.

Since May 2013, Po Campo has partnered with World Bicycle Relief, a Chicago nonprofit that provides bicycles to rural African communities, giving them access to healthcare, education and economic opportunities. To date, Po Campo has donated over 168 bikes.
