Making A Case for Carrying a Shoulder Bag

Reluctant to pick up the feminine accessory that is making its way into the man’s world? While a man-bag — or ‘murse’ — seems unnecessary to lug around, it has more than one practical application for the modern man. With the four reasons to wear, get ready to sling on a shoulder bag and include it into your closet.

Show Your Sensitive Side

Catch the eye of that cute clerk at your local organic grocery store, when you carry your own soft tote instead of using a plastic bag. Getting a couple weeks worth of groceries? Totes are easy to scrunch up, so you can pack a few in one bag.

Keep Your Stuff Safe

Travel can be stressful and when you are exploring new territory it’s easy to be distracted. Don’t let the excitement of a new landscape leave you vulnerable to pickpockets preying on tourists. Keep your wallet, phone and other important items out of your pockets and secured in a shoulder bag you can sling across your body.

Get out of the Office

Enjoy a sunny day or a cozy cafe when you take your ‘office’ with you. For a mid-week break from the confines of your cubicle, get a shoulder bag that carries your computer so you can take your work with you. Choose a bag made of durable leather that can handle the heavy workload.

Bring an Overnight Bag

Staying the night at a ‘friends’? Pack a bag that won’t look awkward on a date but won’t leave you hanging when you need a change of briefs for the next day. Don’t take the walk of shame in your smelly clothes from the previous day and pack a shoulder bag that is sleek enough to look inconspicuous but roomy enough to carry the necessities.

Don’t Get Caught Carrying HER Bag

Be it your mom’s or your girlfriend’s, chances are you’ve been left standing alone, holding a woman’s purse. This awkward moment could be avoided if you had your own bag in tow to easily slip hers into. Headed to the mall? Bring a roomy bag just in case an occasion comes up where you need to stow away an extra bag.

Don’t keep packing your pockets or falling back on a bulky wallet. Expand on your accessories with practical bags you can throw over your shoulder and get on your way.
