Default Man Bags

Listening to Radio 1 this am, the Chris Moyles show. He was saying he had so much stuff to carry about it was time for a man bag … them trying to show that it is still masculine and picking one that doesn’t look girly etc etc … its all funny as you might imagine …

So, who would feel ok owning a man bag?

Forget about practicality right now … like personally I only have call for rucksacks … but speaking hypothetically here would you have a man-bag??

The only time you need anything like that it's because your missus is trying to palm off her stuff to you! Sorry, love her dearly, but if she wants it then she can carry it!!!

As the MIGHTY Hovi5 said Keys, wallet, money and phone...

Nick,

Where's the "Already got one" option ?

Ok, so I haven't used it in ages (bike jackets tend to have enough pockets for it all) - but, back in the early 80's when I was working abroad EVERYBODY was using them so I thought 'What the hell'.
One of the most useful things I've ever bought.
Used to get some strange looks from time to time in this country - but not enough to bother me.

Would I buy another one ?

If I needed one - a definite YES !!

The compulsory record bag is the man bag of the last deacde and will remain so for the forseable future i think. Cool, groovy and big enough to carry a fair bit of junk about in.

Thats if ruchsacks are just not cool enough...or you have a beard and drak hair/eyes and dont wanna get stopped every few mins by the filth.

Option 1 for me. But then, for option 1 to apply, it's really got to be a rugsack, or tankbag.
