It’s football season, which doesn’t mean too much to me. However, if you’re a Swiftie who went as far as buying NFL tickets in the hopes of seeing the pop star…I get it. And if you prefer concerts and music festivals to sports, you, too, need a clear stadium bag.
Several years ago, many venues, especially stadiums, updated their policies to require that any bags brought inside must be clear so the contents can be easily seen by security. 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 there are actually a lot of cute clear stadium bags to choose from now. From elevated clear purses and the popular crossbody variety to funky fanny packs and mini backpacks, they’re so cute and trendy that you can wear them every day.
So 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. 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 lunch, or for a stroll at the park.
At Refinery29, we’re here to help you navigate this overwhelming world of stuff. All of our market picks are independently selected and curated by the editorial team. If you buy or click on something we link to on our site, Refinery29 may earn commission.
