Wow! Backpacks are EVERYWHERE...more than in an average year. Since it is the back to school season (no matter how much we'd like to deny it), we've pulled some of our favorites and there seems to be some clear themes: Suede, leather, nylon and, of course, metallics....mainly in solids but also in classic patterns such as plaid, floral, camo, dot and cheetah. So many backpacks and so little time to sport them all...
