Backpacks are all the rage because they create a sense of nostalgia for people wanting to reminisce about their childhoods. However, the backpacks that carry some books on the shelf and school supplies are long gone because the ones people have these days are more elevated in style, with designs that are perfect for adults without them looking like a lost child. Not only that, but they're also interchangeable with other bags, making them a staple accessory in anyone's wardrobe or even Lady Gaga's insane wardrobe.
Additionally, more and more upscale designers are releasing backpacks that use sophisticated fabrics, leather, and intricate accessories to elevate their bags' style without compromising their function. These designer backpacks have deep pockets and sturdy casings to ensure their contents' safety. That being said, they also come with a very hefty price tag. Curious to see which designer backpacks made it to the list? Read more below to find out!
Brunello Cucinelli Leisure Backpack
The Brunello Cucinelli Leisure Backpack is starting this list strong, which costs an incredible $3,995. Although it's designed to carry stuff, its lightweight material and design came from cotton and linen canvas, combined with vintage calfskin leather and water-resistant coating to help protect the backpack from usual wear-and-tear scenarios. Made in the Italian hamlet of Solomeo, and with the expensive price tag, people might want to choose another backpack to take with them if they plan to go hiking or take their kids on regular field trips.
Chanel Calfskin & Silver-Tone Metal Backpack
Chanel is a brand known for crafting some of the most beautiful designer stuff in the world. With a track record of creating apparel, shoes, handbags, and perfume, it's no secret that they're making their version of the designer backpack. The Chanel Calfskin & Silver-Tone Metal Backpack is made entirely from calfskin and stitched together to create the ribbed texture. Although it is not as expensive as some of the most expensive Hermes bags ever sold, it is still priced high at $4,500. In addition, the bag is lined with waterproof fabric that helps protect the things inside from moisture. This backpack was made for lounging around and sitting still for a high price.
Chanel Grained Calfskin & Gold-Tone Metal Backpack
Another backpack included on this list is from Chanel but costs a little more than the previous item.

But, of course, keeping this backpack out of rowdy children's reach would be best given the expensive price tag.
Santiago Gonzalez Caiman Crocodile Backpack
The Santiago Gonzalez Caiman Crocodile Backpack isn't the most expensive item on this list, but it is quite a luxury item. If the price tag of over $5,550 isn't enough to make it stand out, then knowing that it's made out of actual Colombian crocodile skin might make it more appealing.
