Stylish Backpacks: The Hottest Styles for Summer 2022

Backpacks are a must-have for the 2022 trends and are making a major comeback on the world’s most famous fashion runways.

Whether they feature a satin finish, are made of leather, or come in vibrant, youthful colors, the backpacks that are all the rage for the Spring/Summer ’22 season cater to everyone’s tastes and have become an indispensable accessory for all fashion lovers who want to stay on trend.

Trendy backpacks, whether made of leather or fabric, are an excellent alternative to the classic handbag: they’re functional, ultra-spacious, and perfectly blend style with practicality, proving to be a valuable ally for both work and sports.

If you’re looking for the perfect trendy backpack to enhance your summer outfit, keep reading our guide.

Stylish Leather Backpack

Fans of vintage and bon ton styles are sure to love the leather models with flaps and drawstrings—a hallmark of the The Bridge collection—such as the Camilla backpack and the Dante laptop backpack, which remain among the trendiest backpacks of the Spring/Summer 22 season.

These leather The Bridge backpacks stand out for their unique style. Practical and lightweight, they’re perfect for casual-chic daytime looks, thanks to the amber-colored leather that pairs perfectly with denim and the canvas of a pair of sneakers.

These stylish leather backpacks are the perfect companions for spring day trips and busy days, without compromising on style or sophistication.

Trendy "Full Fantasy" Backpacks

One of the most popular items among the trendy backpacks for the S/S '22 season is the “full fantasy” model, where a unique pattern takes center stage!

These trendy backpacks are a hit with anyone who doesn’t want to go unnoticed and can add a pop of flair to any basic outfit.

The standout piece in this category is, without a doubt, the Geo Capri backpack in embossed fabric and leather: the ultra-elegant blue majolica pattern beautifully complements the Geo White fabric characteristic of Alviero Martini 1A Classe’s summer accessories.

This stylish women’s backpack is perfect for showing off on hot summer days, especially when paired with a white linen outfit, creating a classic and timeless island look.

When it comes to full-color patterns, we can’t fail to mention Gabs, which has created a model that immediately claimed a spot at the top of the list of most popular backpacks in our Spring/Summer 22 collection: the Lolita backpack.

The new Gabs backpack is available in four vibrant abstract prints, all inspired by the worlds of travel, photography, and street art, and it easily complements contemporary daytime and evening outfits.

Stylish Backpack Made from Recycled Nylon

Among the new arrivals for the Spring/Summer 22 season, the recycled nylon backpack remains the trendy, fashion-forward choice—especially in urban settings. Everyone knows by now: a backpack adds a touch of character and edge to everyday outfits, and when it’s also sustainable, that’s the winning combination!

One of the trendiest women’s backpacks is the “Borbonese” backpack, made from 100% eco-sustainable, recycled nylon with an OP print. This style features a drawstring closure with a flap, embellished with a ring in a metallic finish—a striking, signature detail that creates a sophisticated and original design. This piece is perfect for adding a playful touch to a more serious look, such as a 1970s pinstripe suit, paired with neon-colored ballet flats!

For sporty men who care about sustainability, we can’t fail to mention the Spike line by Piquadro, made entirely from recycled fabric, featuring work backpacks and models ideal for outdoor activities: one example is the new “Piquadro” Spike backpack, available in black and a vibrant yellow.

Piquadro  has always been one of the industry’s leading brands in the production of backpacks and briefcases, and this model is one of the most popular among this spring season’s fashion offerings. The clean, minimalist design makes it perfect for work settings, especially when paired with black or charcoal gray suits, but it also looks great with jeans for an exceptional casual-business outfit.
