A great vacation bag has to do double duty: it needs to hold up to a full day of travel, and it needs to actually look like something you chose on purpose. That second part is where a lot of bags fall flat — safe, forgettable, interchangeable with a hundred others at baggage claim. These ten don't have that problem, starting with one of our most talked-about pieces: a genuine leather backpack shaped like a beetle, full carapace and all. Here are 10 trendy vacation bags actually worth packing.
1. Accordion Design Beetle Leather Daypack
Our most-asked-about travel bag, and for good reason: this one-of-a-kind daypack is genuine leather, shaped like a beetle's carapace, and built with an accordion-style gusset that actually expands for a day of sightseeing. It's a conversation starter that still carries your gear.
