My First Manbag

[Frigiliana]

Thought i would post my purchase . l wanted a small to medium bag for everyday use mainly to put my phone, wallet, handkerchief, keys, comb and odds and sods , i didn't want a big bag as i eventually just fill it with crap , this takes me to the bag,i bought a Brady Kent fits the bill perfectly , looks good and well made in my opinion you all can judge , i bought from a UK site for £67 and have seen them for over £80 , they delivered it to Spain at a reasonable price here's some photos , i didn't know if i was allowed to say the name of the company i bought it from so i haven't let me know if i can

I like the bag but their is no way in hell I would/could carry that around. I would get too much beef from my friends/coworkers. If you are able to pull it off than more power to you

Lucky for me, I'm retired. This size bag is quite common in Spain , suppose it's because there are still a lot of smokers here

I used to carry a stylish leather manbag about eight or nine years ago, but got endless amount of **** for it from my friends and so gave it up for many years. I recently started carrying a leather document case that fits my Macbook Air or iPad along with papers, phone, keys, etc. No strap or anything, but it serves as an effective purse.

My wife has an every day bag and it takes her twenty minutes to find the car keys when she gets to the car

Yep. Solution = a jacket with lots of pockets or a full size bag. Perhaps cargo pants on the weekends...

Frigiliana congratulations on your purchase. To the rest of you, If you have friends that would mock you for using a bag this size, then make new friends because the ones you have are ignorant. Man bags or messenger bags have been used by men for thousands of years and will be in use for a long time to come.

They come in a myriad of shapes and materials and there is nothing feminine about them at all.
