Following the new popular designer trend of [translucent accessories](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/reflected-bag), [Eastpak](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/trompe-loeil-bags) created a new [see-though backpack and fanny pack](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/eastpak-launched) with a PVC finish. Each bag is available in either a clear color or a black-tinted color, made in 100% pure polyester.

The backpack features multiple pockets, with individual compartments for specific items such as a laptop case, as well as a smaller compartment on the front. Both new bags were made with the same material, with one large main compartment, adjustable straps and the iconic Eastpak logo.

Both the see-through backpack and fanny pack by Eastpak are available online now from $56 to $118 and are finished with a one of a kind shimmering glass effect.
