by Colin Summers

With the end of summer quickly approaching—whether or not we would like to admit it—it’s time to start thinking about the school year ahead—even if you are not actually going back to school. To better help make the transition from beach bags stuffed with towels and your favorite Rosé, we have gathered 23 great backpacks to get you back in the mood for the new season ahead. From vintage finds to classic staples, like the nylon Prada backpack that revived the house back in the early 90’s, to new classics such as the crisp white Calvin Klein backpack to a Balenciaga piece with just the right amount of political humor. Ease out of the post-summer blues with these fashion-forward backpacks to help get your year off to a chic start.
