Man bags


What do you think?
I think they are a really good idea and our chaps should use them, especially in summer (when they've fewer pockets to stow things)
I've threatened my OH I'll give him one for christmas - he likes them when we're abroad, when lots of men use them, but chickens out when we get home!

Re: Man bags


I think they're ever so smart and continental. My Dad used to have one and although I writhed with embarassment at the time, I think they're uber-cool now.

Sadly hubby's just too 'English' to try anything like that. He won't even wear sandals (with OR without socks)

Re: Man bags


Great idea, but what do you think they would keep in them. I mean they normally just use a wallet, whereas for us women they are an extention of our bodies. Any ideas?

Re: Man bags


*bump*
Anyone actually know a source for nice ones (nice and plain and sophisticated)? I can find lots of lap-top/messenger type bags but few smaller ones.

Re: Man bags


Depends how posh you want to go; Aspinalls do nice ones (or they did last time I looked)
