BAG IT MEN

First post,2011 and its for my brothers..

A man bag is definitely making its rounds in the city.Am sure you've seen several men having one of these.Put your laptop in it,your sweater,a spare tie,your presentation materials.Its a very stylish addition to your wardrobe.

   Now there are several types of man bags,and we'll start with the most obvious

1.Briefcase

Most men carry this for their documents,going to the office,interview maybe...remember this :

 now they've re branded and repackaged briefcases into more statement pieces :very formal,business.

2.Duffel bag,gym bag.very popular especially In the music scene.we have musicians singing about them,putting money in them and so forth.They are used to put equipment in,gym items.you can literally carry anything in these bags.This is very casual.weekends

3.Newsboy bag. Back in the day when newsboys delivered papers(and we didn't have newspaper stands at every corner of the street) they carried one of these bags.However,they've become more of a casual item for the Now man...something that even the ladies are in on.they are popular for school,college...

4.Hold on bag.This i first saw with a man who inspired men's fashion wear for me from a while back.He carried this from his trips.it would hold his shades,lip balm,nail cutter..a sweater or scarf.It works for a casual weekend,semi-business meetings.They've become quite an item,you will not miss a man on any street without one of these.i love their simplicity,and class.

They are mostly made of leather and can work either for casual of official depending on the color that you have,black,grey,brown or like the LV bag and  lamb signature Eton above.

5.messenger bag.Messengers ideally go to the post office,for mails,deliver checks,pick up forms,the works,well this particular bag was pretty much made for that kind of thing.Its long,has a sling.Very simple to carry.Idea for the weekend,casual wear..or even office again its at your disposal

Here are a few extra shots to show you how its done.I personally love Kanye.















The next time you're out will all these things you need to carry,pop into a shop and get yourself a man bag,I've explained what you might need,go out there and make me proud.
