My First Designer Manbag

[Brooklyn Zoo]

definatly wouldnt go over here in the states...definatly a european thing

first of all, it's "definitely."

second of all, there are people posting on this board that can pull off a man bag (state side)

go listen to j-hova some more, he'll be rocking one next year if it even takes that long

(thank you kanye...bleh)

on another note now that you mention it, the dior homme duffle does look a lot gym-ly in black. I would go for a silver or gold one if you're buying dior homme, you can probably get a great quality black leather duffle for a lot less from other brands i would think.

i bid on a silver one at ebay ages ago, at the end the winning price is 1500 something. too much for me. the black one i got for 850 shipped...

Are you talking bout the FW05 ones?

I totally agree for the FW05 model that you need to get the flashier ones (gold, silver) as the style and model of the bag is too plain and alot of brands are doing that kinda models too.

But for the AW06 models, i prefer the black or brown ones, as they look better in plain, toned down colors as opposed to silver or gold. As the bag it self with all those pockets, zippers, tassle and clips itself is pretty eye catching already.

Hey guys,the bag i posted is from Barneys New york. It's on their website under mens-leather accesories...Don't buy too many,because i havn't ordered mine yet!

[disasterrrrrrrrr]

I've been using this bag for work for I think the last 5 or so years. It's durable, understated and actually fits quite a fair bit despite it's slim profile.

ugh, this bag is so f'n sexy.

[lacquered]

anyone got the silver or gold duffle bag yet?

[seven.homme]

i really want to grab DH silver duffel bag..

saw those duffs in dior la last friday

great design in person

just a bit bigger than i thought

unless im trippin; pretty fuckin glittery although the pic doesnt look it at all

not my thang

[lacquered]

my rule is always wear something that 'pop out'. But keep it at the minimal side. For example, maybe a toned down basic slim black suit with a black shirt, a white sneak with this DH silver duffle. The duffle will give that extra 'spark' on your overall outfit.

You dont wear something like a napoleon jacket with a silver glittered jeans, and a gold cuban shoes with this bag. Those items are great, but you can only wear one at a time. My 2c.

That bag is gonna make you think "wtf was I thinking" once this silver/gold trend gets played out even more. Then you're gonna wish you bought a black one instead.

[ProfMonnitoff]

A friend has the silver duffle. It's less shiny but more glittery than the pictures above. The straps are elastic and look like they have little bits of glitter in them. He bought it for the retail price in Paris, I have no idea why. I don't think he has ever carried it downtown, always says something about it not going with the outfit. Thing is, that shit is always gonna look out of place unless you're a fairy or one of the dudes from daft punk.

ok, so i was considering getting this filson tote bag to go with what i usually wear, my slim jims/(blk dukes coming), clean tshirt and a jacket, a m65/a cropped peacoat. What do you guys think about it? would it possibly work? im kinda feeling how that looks....however that idea is just my imagination....and we all know how far that can stretch XD, anyways im a college student and i like things that are kinda under the radar.

heres the look at the bag:

[misterpretender]

I would totally get the filson...This is one of the sexiest bags ever made...The duffle version is amazing as well...Also, make sure to check out the destressed versions made by Steven Alan and the Jean Shop...

[MiniW]

get the filson and stop over-analyzing your life

get that within a minute

mrsmartman: Never been fond of the tote bag look on guys, especially in the states, but that bag is pretty ill. I'd definitely rock that.

[seven.homme]

thats look really nice..

im looking something like this...not miu miu for sure. to expensive.

anyone??

[MiniW]

ummm.. the miu miu bag looks pretty feminine imo (is it for women?). reminds me of a bag i bought for my gf. I think it's the slouchiness

[seven.homme]

i think just because of the material..

maybe same model but more matte leather..

btw its mens bag..

[evisu 2000]

the handles (or whatever whatever) make it look like a female's bag.

[keysonawire]

I would be buying an N.D.C. bag if I had the money...

[Mattjay]

Its ridiculously sad how some people are so insecure about their manhood. I personally think that our society's view of what a "real man" is, is so fucked up and distorted, but thats another issue...

Anyway, like anything else "the man bag" is only as good as the style of the one you rock. I don't have one, but I totally understand the function, but I basically have been wearing my shoulder bag or backpack every day since I was in middle school. I got way too much shit I keep with me on a daily basis not to.

I wanted one too until I found out the price of this season's bags.

I'll probably be picking up a washed grey leather margiela duffle.

[RAISED BY WOLVES]

Not one to hype porter, especially since I have never handled their goods (and their American counterpart, Filson, is just as good as I point out whenever I can), but this collab with monocle is looking kind of tempting to me.

i like that miu miu bag a lot, it'd be less feminine if its big enough

not sure of the size tho

[seven.homme]
