Want a diaper bag that doesn’t look like a diaper bag? Consider a backpack diaper bag. Not only are backpack diaper bags stylish and (mostly) compact, but they can also be convenient for parents who want to share a diaper bag. These are the chicest diaper bag backpacks on the market.

1. Freshly Picked Classic Diaper Bag

Moms rave about the Freshly Picked Diaper Bag, which hardly looks like a diaper bag. This backpack diaper bag features a large interior storage space, plus 10 pockets. A magnetic front flap means you can quickly close the bag when you’re on the go, and metal feet on the bag’s bottom protect it from acquiring dirt on the ground (though the backpack can easily be wiped clean). The Freshly Picked Diaper Bag is available in a wide variety of neutral colors, plus a leopard print and gunmetal (metallic) option. Bonus: You can also wear this backpack as a crossbody bag or purse.
