The number one item on a student\u2019s back-to-school shopping list is a backpack that is both functional and stylish. Students love to showcase their unique personalities through their backpacks, and we definitely found this to be true at the Community College of Denver. We\u2019re sharing the backpacks we saw around campus that range from sporty to trendy to classic.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Ladies are up first for on-campus backpack trends:<\/strong><\/h1>\n

1. Fun prints and classics<\/strong><\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

These four students went with classic backpacks\u2013you know, the kind with a simple design and washability. But the two on the left found fun floral prints, and the two on the right went with classic Jansport<\/a> backpacks with their own unique colors.<\/span><\/p>\n

2. Sophisticated shoulder bag<\/strong><\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

This student opted for a stylish shoulder bag from <\/span>Madewell<\/span><\/a>. This type of women\u2019s bag is functional for class, but simply looks like a large purse, keeping the look sophisticated. The tan-brown color matches everything, and the leather finish keeps the bag from getting dirty quickly.<\/span><\/p>\n

3. Subtle grunge<\/h2>\n

Vans<\/a> is a notorious \u201cskater brand,\u201d and we saw lots of Vans backpacks all over campus. This student opted for a neutral gray-tone with a unique fabric texture, styling it with a call to vote pin.<\/span><\/p>\n

4. Sporty with feminine print<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

This student opted for an Outdoor Products<\/a> backpack, but went for a feminine, pink and polka-dot pattern. The style blends an outdoor interest and functionality need\u2013note all the pockets\u2013with fun pops of color and pattern.<\/span><\/p>\n

5. Subtley outdoorsy<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Denver is full of <\/span>outdoor enthusiasts<\/span><\/a>, and this student opted for a toned down version of the outdoorsy look. The <\/span>High Sierra<\/span><\/a> backpack is functional for both school and day hikes, perfect for the student who wants to go for a quick hike after class. <\/span><\/p>\n

6. \u201cAll outdoor activities included\u201d backpack<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The <\/span>REI Traverse backpack<\/span><\/a> is great for a hardcore outdoor enthusiast. Whether you\u2019re going climbing, hiking, or even on a short backpacking trip after class, this backpack gets the job done without overdoing it.<\/span><\/p>\n

7. Unique styles and structures\"\"<\/h2>\n

This group of women all carried different backpacks. The student on the left opted for a less structured look and went more fashion-forward with her pack. To her right, a two-toned classic Jansport<\/a> pack makes an appearance. The trans by Jansport backpack adds a pop of color and a vibrant pattern, while the backpack furthest from the right is another High Sierra<\/a> bag that keeps things more subdued and sporty.<\/span><\/p>\n

The men\u2019s backpack range:<\/b><\/h1>\n

1. Boxy<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The boxy look is definitely in, and keeps your laptop and textbooks easily confined to their space. This trendy pack shows great street style and is a unique take on the trend.<\/span><\/p>\n

2. Oversized<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

These oversized bags are trends for all genders, as they are extremely functional for fitting everything you need, but can also be fashion-forward. The boxy style of the men\u2019s Underarmour creates structure, while the woman\u2019s Vans pack gives a more classic look.<\/span><\/p>\n

3. Buckles and clasps<\/strong><\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Ever since the <\/span>Herschel<\/span><\/a> bag started popping up everywhere, we\u2019ve seen plenty of spinoffs of the old-fashioned look. These leather buckles are the focal point of the trend, as they give a unique look to the packs.<\/span><\/p>\n

4. Class to mountains<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Similar to several of the female backpacks we shared, this pack is made by a traditionally outdoor-focused brand, <\/span>Osprey<\/span><\/a>, meaning these packs are made for durability and outdoor recreation functionality. However, the backpack has a traditional school-focused shape, making it the perfect bag for both school and recreation.<\/span><\/p>\n

5. Classic pack with two-toned color<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Classic Jansports<\/a> don\u2019t seem to go out of style, but this student added a touch of creativity with a two-toned neutral pack, allowing it to match everything and give some extra style.<\/span><\/p>\n

When choosing a backpack or bag, keep in mind what your main functions will need to be. Do you have a lot of textbooks you\u2019ll need to carry where you\u2019ll need a bigger bag? What do you like to do after class that your backpack can function for accordingly? And, how do you want to express your unique personality? Have fun with it!<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
