Whether it's back to school or a workplace with a metal detector, you may be looking for a stylish clear backpack or tote. Across the U.S., schools are requiring clear backpacks. I also know that many who work in security, retail, and for the government must use transparent work bags. Is it possible to have a cool looking clear bookbag? I researched to find the most stylish clear backpacks and totes for school and work.
My focus is on larger transparent totes and backpacks appropriate for middle and high school students. However, I have a mix of styles and price points below for kids and adults, as well as a mix of aesthetics, colors, and interests of the bag owner.
Teen-Approved Stylish Clear Backpacks and Totes for School and Work
Please realize that while there are some broad teen trends regarding popular brands, styles, and themes, each school has its own culture.
A safe bet is a clear backpack with black trim. My high school student says that's the "cool" option at her school, and only those who have a certain "aesthetic" go for the colorful bags. Athletic logos are always acceptable, and if you want to be colorful, it's usually with a tote bag instead of a backpack.
Different school systems also have different requirements for clear bookbags. Some only allow backpacks and not totes, and some allow a tint and/or an attached opaque pouch. Check your school system's bag policy to ensure the bag you are getting is permitted.
Some schools offer free clear backpacks to students; check with the office before purchasing. Finally, schools that require clear backpacks usually offer a grace period during the first week of school to get a bag, so you don't always have to be ready on the first day. In case you're in a rush, I also share highly-rated clear backpacks with swift shipping policies, including one I purchased that survived the school year and summer without breaking.
Quality Clear Backpacks Delivered in Less than Three Days
The bag breaks, it's a new school policy, there are a lot of reasons why you may be rushing to get a clear backpack. These all have swift shipping policies as well as high grades for durability and functionality.
Feminine Clear Backpacks and Totes
Pastel colors, holographic tint, there are a lot of fun and feminine clear totes and backpacks on the market and are really popular with teens as well as adults. A lot of these would also make for a fantastic waterproof beach bag!
Designer Logo Backpacks
The name on the bag is sometimes more important than the bag design. If you or your teen are a fan of a certain brand, designer, or shop, check out these stylish clear backpacks and totes. Please note, not all of these bags are what a parent would consider reasonable for their middle schooler or high schooler. However, we grown-ass women have the right to spend where we want on what we want!
Athletic-inspired Clear Backpacks and Totes
I know athletic brand clear backpacks are popular at my gym; they are also popular at my kid's high school. I see them at the mall and on the street on folks of all ages. These are deemed "cool" athletic brands and get good reviews for durability.
