The Portland Webfeet were a Minor League Baseball team in the Pacific Northwest League. They were located in Portland, Oregon and played at Columbia Park. They were active from 1890 to 1892.

In 1891, the Webfeet, also known as the Gladiators, won the league championship,[1][2] even playing teams from the California League, including Sacramento, San Francisco, and San Jose. The Pacific Northwest League folded in the second half of the 1892 season due to the Panic of 1893.[3]
