The 11 Best High-Street Bowling Bags

Those with a keen eye for accessories will have noticed the recent rise of one particular bag shape—the bowling bag.

Stylish people across the globe have been reaching for this fresh silhouette for the past few months, and for 2025, the adoration is only getting stronger. As a handbag-obsessed editor, I’ve been following the rise of this particular bag style avidly, and whilst I’ve already sung the praises of various investment offerings, now I’m here to highlight the best high-street bowling bags.

The bowling bag can be identified by its silhouette. Often featuring rounded double handles, a tote-like shape and a flat base, the style is often finished with a zip that runs all the way from one end to another. In the finer details, you can also spot tabs attaching the handles to the body of the bag. The silhouette was last in favour in the early ’00s thanks to iconic styles from Dior, Prada and Louis Vuitton cementing it as the shape to have and to hold.
