A leather backpack is a classic bag that's timeless and always fashionable.

The best backpacks should be made from luxurious full grain leather, as alternatives are less durable and unappealing.

If using the backpack for work, it should have enough room for a laptop, and for traveling, it must have enough pockets to store travel essentials.
