Whether you’re heading to a music festival, embracing sportscore during baseball season, or are simply looking for an accessory to complement any summer outfit, there’s one item that’s a must-have: a small, clear bag that allows for hands-free fun.
Many venues, especially major stadiums, now require that any bags brought inside be clear, so the contents can be easily seen by security. Starting a few years ago, this created a frenzy of last-minute Amazon bag purchases and an overall flood of PVC plastic bags on the market. The upside of this demand is that there are actually a lot of cute, clear stadium bags to choose from. From clear crossbody bags and clear fanny packs to tote bags and mini backpacks, these in-demand styles are so trendy that you can wear them beyond game day.
Ahead, we’ve compiled the very best clear purses — with many customizable options coming from Amazon and Etsy — that fit within the typical stadium-approved 12 x 6 x 12-inch dimensions. We even found designer clear bags from brands like Kate Spade Outlet and Tory Burch. While you may think this will be a one-off purchase, you may be surprised that you’ll want to use a clear purse time and time again, whether you’re bringing it to school, out to brunch, or for a stroll in the park.
