THE MAN BAG QUESTION?

Man bags, do you, or don’t you? Or does you do, or does you don’t?  There’s no doubting the fact that the man bag question is very divisive, I mean can you still be a proper geezer whilst bouncing around with a small leather bag over your shoulder, or mincing as the case maybe?

Now I don’t mind using one when I am on holiday, after all they are very practical when all said and done, you can stash your Factor 35, Sunglasses and Cash all in one safe handy place which eliminates the risk of losing any of your stuff out of those loose pockets that we normally have on our shorts.

It’s also worth pointing out that a decent man bag can compliment a nice outfit really well, on the continent men don’t seem to have a problem accommodating one so why should we Brits be so anal about it?  There are some really nice man bags on the market at the moment and with summer just around the corner buying one could prove to be a very shrewd purchase indeed, so for those of you who are interested we have selected a couple for you to have look at.

EMPORIO ARMANI CROSS BODY BAG WITH ALL OVER LOG PRINT

I really love this, a fine, contemporary and stylish bag from Emporio Armani which is ideal for the casual urban traveller.  This cross body bag in printed bovine leather features an all-over logo design.  It also has an adjustable shoulder strap and inner and outer pockets.

HUGO BOSS CROSS BODY BAG IN TECHNICAL FABRIC

Now how about this sporty little number from Hugo Boss which has been built to last from a hardwearing nylon fabric, it also features waterproof zips and the brands iconic logo in a shiny silicone finish.  This splendid little bag is both practical and stylish, it also has a rather nifty adjustable strap and branded internal lining, just what you need to compliment a nice short set when you’re off to spend a lazy day down at the beach.
