In case you haven’t heard, we’ve reached the conclusion that backpacks are inescapably cringe. They’re boxy, they get in the way, they make everyone and everything look uncool and that’s just their destiny. That being said, we still love them and will continue to carry them because they’re practical and comfortable and because not everything in our life should be cool.

If it’s for your everyday commute to work or you’re in your travel-influencer-era, there’s millions of options out there for every style and personality.

‍

These options are not only cool(ish), you’ll also be taking some of the planet’s weight off its back and carrying it in your sustainable backpack!
