Top 5 Fall Man Bags: Man Up Already

Top 5 Fall Man Bags

I get a lot of my guy friends asking me for bag recommendations. They’re always looking for fully functional bags that won’t give their manhood a hit (if you ask me, that fear itself is an instant hit to one’s manhood, but no judgments here). I have no idea why it’s not socially acceptable for a man to carry a bag – they have to stuff to carry, too. I see some guys walking around with that giant version of the Galaxy phone, and I seriously wonder how they carry it with no bag. You need to be wearing True Religion jeans for it to fit in your back pocket, and just as a side warning, that is the worst place to keep a phone (just ask mine, who recently had a bungled meeting with the bottom of a toilet).

I love these man bags here – so much, in fact, I would carry them myself. Especially the rugged ones with polished details, a la Marni and Mismo. There is something so cool about a girl who’s not afraid of masculine edge – and guys who aren’t afraid to carry a bag, for that matter.
