When it comes to style, men are really giving a tough competition with women and wardrobe items like men's carrier bag are gaining variety and creating an immense effect among men's style.
Of course, choosing the right bag can often be confusing and intimidating especially since there are plenty of options to choose from out there that come in a variety of colours, materials and sizes. With so much to consider, it can be hard to know where to start. Which leaves most men still bag-less – or settling for the wrong bag.
The most important things to note when choosing the right bag is; if it fits with the occassion you want to use it for and if it defines your personalty. These are contributing factors to selecting the perfect bag.
So with that being said, here are five different types of bag that are both extremely suitable for any aspiring stylish gentleman.
#1. The Duffel Bag
If in doubt, this should really be your go-to. This is because it can perform multiple functions on a daily basis while still retaining an element of style. It's ideal for the gym goer who likes to keep their gear close to hand and the perfect companion for business men who travels on the go.
Pick one that is a medium size (i.e. not too small nor too big) and if possible opt for a leather version in brown or black.
#2. The Briefcase
This bag is ideal for the modern gentleman who only ever needs to carry around his laptop and a hand full of papers.
If you work in an environment that requires you to wear a suit, I’d suggest purchasing one in black leather. Anywhere else, try one in canvas for a more casual look.
#3. The Backpack
As we all know, fashion is in cyles-what goes around comes around and, right now, that is very true for the backpack. This is the ideal choice for students, casual men and also an alternative to your briefcase especially on a less formal occasion. Try out one in a bold colour like cobalt blue or canary yellow to really add a bit of life into your look.
#4. The Messenger Bag
Messenger bags are a stylish alternative to the briefcase. They are designed with a single strap that sits across the chest, and can accommodate laptops, tablets, textbooks, and notebooks easily. They are available in a variety of
sizes with numerous features, so selecting the right style can be a challenge.
For daily use, make sure the strap is comfortable and go for leather material because, it is the most reliable and are the best bet when it comes to carrying all the stuff you need to without appearing as if you are carrying an over filled
sack. For a more formal occasion, opt for traditional and classy colours like black or brown with cool sewing details.
#5. The Tote Bag
Although this is the most underrated of the bunch, it's great because it can carry a huge amount of supplies - laptop, camera, magazines, notepads, spare clothing items, accessories - and virtually anything!
However, it is the most feminine on this list, so in order to avoid any embarrassment, go for one in a rugged, and durable style like canvas or suede and opt for one with handles that are long enough to be carried over your shoulder.
