Stop me if you’ve heard this before: the bucket bag is a bonafide thing, and it’s not going anywhere soon. Although the simple, casual bags have their detractors, Mansur Gavriel’s ultra-minimal, perpetually sold-out spin on the shape helped usher them back to popularity among fashion people. Even more so than last spring, it seems like every brand under the sun has released its own version.
I’ve carried various versions of Mansur’s bucket nearly every day for the better part of two years; I used to be a bucket naysayer, but I’ve been converted. At their best, the bags are lightweight, roomy, modern and casual without being sloppy. Below, we’ve found a bunch of the best buckets the Internet has to offer, starting as low as $88.
