I was in search of a nice LSU Gameday shirt for my father's birthday, and my boss recommended checking out the line here. Walking in, I was immediately greeted by Maddie, and she pointed me directly to where i needed to go. They have a really great selection of nice performance material and some great button down shirts. There are a lot good pullovers as well. They have LSU logos, Sailor Mikes, Tigers, and Louisianas. Maddie was very helpful and I was happy with my quick check out and getting on my way. While I was there, it was fun to people watch the regulars and watch the interaction they were having with them. It is clear they value their customers. I look forward to going back to grab more gifts for the special men in my life. An added bonus, Dad LOVED the shirt! Thanks, Carriages!

My review is not so much about the store or their merchandise, but more about their helpful…read moreemployees. The other night I had got a flat tire on my way home from work and I was able to make it into the Perlis parking lot. I ended up having to leave my car in their parking lot over night but first thing the next morning I called to let them know that I would be there shortly to pick it up. The lady that I spoke to, Rachel, was very friendly and understanding. When my dad and I arrived a few hours later to get my car we were greeted by who I assume was the manager of the store. He offered my dad and I a can of Fix-A-Flat, no charge. A little while later, because my dad and I were out there for quite a while, another man came outside and offered us some bottles of water. I didn't get a chance to look around their store before leaving but I would definitely recommend this store to others based on the employees' personalities alone. If any of the employees read this, thank you again!

I'm in Baton Rouge from the Houston area on business for a couple of days. It's raining and I'm…read morebetween meetings with time on my hands. I've been looking for a roof rack loader for my Pescador Perception so, since Thule and Yakima accessories are pretty much interchangeable, I Google search Thule and Yakima dealers in the area. Two popped up and The Backpacker was one of them. It's a dreary rainy day and lunch time. I managed to find the shop in spite of the lunch traffic on Jefferson Hwy. I parked and walked inside. I was immediately received with a friendly greeting by several of the staff with offers to help me. I told them I was "just looking around" and they left me to myself with me knowing if I needed any help they'd be there. I like that. I wandered around for about 30 minutes and I managed to find a few things. Some I needed and some I didn't know I needed. So, I carried my bounty to the register and was checking out. I asked the young man if they had a THule or Yakima kayak loader. He replied, " We don't have any T-hule loaders or Yakima loaders in stock." I always find it amusing when the folks in the outfitting shops do that. I'm not "Sveedish" so I'll continue to say "THule" LOL. In all seriousness, the shop is very comfortable and friendly. The staff are extremely helpful and not overbearing/pushy. I travel to BR often on business and I'll continue to stop by "The Backpacker" to find things I didn't know I needed. I'm convinced that if they don't have it, you don't really need it. Kudos to The Backpacker and the wonderful staff. - Rain Man "And into the forest I go, to lose my mind and find my soul." - John Muir

Prices weren't cheap, but clothing was well sorted and all items were special pieces that packed a punch; nothing boring here. Although my usual clothing selections are a bit more timeless and less bright (so I didn't buy clothing here), I thoroughly enjoyed poking around and making friends with the staff. Bought a couple vintage-reproduction pairs of glasses that I will thoroughly enjoy- quite stylish. A really fun experience.
