The
Best
Leather
Backpacks

The Dolce backpack by Bosca ($635), a super-organized bag engineered for travel with built-in RFID blocking technology.

Backpacks are back in a big way these days. We've written about them before, but this is a little more specific roundup. Here, we're focusing on the more streamlined styles cut from leather. Because once you get yourself one of these, you're never gonna want to put it down. Why? Because it's an office-friendly bag that has all the comfort and ease of the same bag you used in high school. Because the sleek, streamlined style of these leather carryalls instantly elevates everything you wear it with, from a proper shirt and cardigan to a simple hoodie and jeans. Not to mention it's the kind of bag that you can wear at any age and only gets better as the years go on. And while it's certainly an investment piece, we were surprised to find so many well-made options at reasonable prices.
