What about Man Bags? are they naff or stylish?

[Katymac]

My DH wants one - but I'm not sure

What's the MN consensus??

TIA

oohhh MrBadger that JL one is lovely! your DH clearly has good taste

agree with the confidence thing....DH is quite arty, wears quite unusual & interesting clothes quite a lot and accessories, so he can carry off a man bag ! wear it with confidence i say!!

Hmmm - I have a better idea now I think

smaller than a briefcase - but quite big really

I really like the one that is from JL it's lovely (but not £129 worth of lovely)

But I think I know where I am going now

Thanks everyone

I told my husband I would get him one to wear.

He said, 'Would I fuck!'

I bought DH a beige fabric satchel/ messenger bag in Gap ages ago. He laughed when I brought it home and said he'd never use it. Now I find it hard to get off him wash it!

Definitely trendy, though correct that the eeny ones (like the one that orange bloke had in Bridget Jones) - they are just too like women's bags.

That would be my dh's reaction too EPIS.

My dh asked for one to keep lunch, ipod, books etc in when he goes to work - he wanted one from Fat Face - but I gave him my Onelife one and he seems happy with it!

Its a messenger bag by the way not changing bag LOL

Fimbo
I also got him a card to commemorate the 300th anniversay of the Union treaty.

He's gonna SO love that!

Haaahaahaaahaaa.

dh has a do-it-yourself bag- the side pocket of an old rucksack, whick he has strung onto a length of webbing, as a kind of bumbag. It looks OK,not stylish, but not naff/ girly either

I bought one for dh a few years ago but it just wasnt' him and he's barely used it. He'd rather stuff his pockets.

He has no style.

dh would rather stuff his stuff in my handbag - and make me carry it

My DH wouldn't have one. The closest he gets to a ManBag is a Tory-boy briefcase.

DH just uses pockets or carries stuff in his hands.
