Let’s be real— can we imagine life without bags? Where would you keep your wallet, phone, spare gum pack, or daydreams? Exactly. Bags are no longer just functional items; they’re fashion statements. Forget flowers, gift a designer handbag, and watch happiness bloom!
But here’s where it gets tricky: not all bags are created equal. From smart backpacks to those enigmatic pockets that men sometimes carry (man-purse, anyone?), the world of bags is a minefield, a mystery, and even amusing. So, whether you’re a traveller, a fashionista, or someone just trying to carry stuff without dropping it all over the place—this guide is for you.
1. Backpacks: The MVP of Bags
Ah, the trusty backpack. The lifeline of students, travelers, and anyone who can’t fit their entire life into their pockets. Backpacks are the multitaskers of the bag world. They’ve got two straps, go on your back duh, and come in every size, shape, and colour imaginable. Some are so big you could practically move house with them, while others are sleek enough for a laptop and a sandwich.
Types of Backpacks:
- Travel Backpacks: Built to hold more than just dreams. With space for clothes, toiletries, and even a couple of life crises, these are your go-to for long trips.
- Everyday Backpacks: For those who want to carry essentials like a laptop, lunch, and that novel you swear you’ll finish.
- Smart Backpacks: Keep aside the boring backpacks; Arista Vault’s smart backpacks for men and women, come with fingerprint locks, USB charging ports, and, let’s face it, an ego boost. No more fumbling with zippers—your finger is the only key. Literally.
Backpacks are like that reliable friend who always helps you move—and never complains.
2. Tote Bags: The I-Can-Carry-Everything Bag
Tote bag is the “mom” of the bag world. They may look compact, but somehow manage to fit everything from your groceries to that gym outfit you swore you’d wear after work. Totes are especially popular among moms, busy professionals, and, well, anyone who has no idea what “packing light” means.
Pros of Tote Bags:

3. Crossbody Bags: For the Minimalist on the Go
If travel backpacks are the go-to for carrying your life, crossbody bags are for those days when you just need to carry the essentials: phone, keys, and wallet. These are great for running errands or when you’re out and don’t want to deal with the hassle of lugging around a larger bag.

4. Messenger Bags: For the Intellectual (or So You Think)
Messenger bags are like the crossbody’s older, more sophisticated cousin. Typically worn by professionals, students, or those who want to look like they’re about to attend a poetry reading. They’re structured, functional, and give off that “I read books” vibe. With a flap closure and lots of compartments, messenger bags are perfect for organizing your chaotic life (or at least pretending to). They can be the perfect office laptop bags for men. They’re the perfect balance of cool and nerdy—basically the Ryan Gosling of bags.

5. Duffel Bags: The Gym Buff’s Best Friend

Uses for Duffel Bags:
