I use my pockets because manbags make a straight man look like a queer.

I have a Hellsing 'manbag' I got free with a DVD order that gets occasional use, mainly when I'm going somewhere for the day without the car and need to carry snacks/camera/ebook etc, or sometimes I'll throw my PC toolkit (which if i'm trying to sort out internet problems can include an old router and spare network cables/cable tester) and restore discs etc in it.
It's actually quite handy as it's even the right size for a 17" laptop...

It's not a man bag; its simply a bag, you may pass without being mocked.

Get a jacket with lots of pockets, carry stuff like a boss. A good jacket will have pockets disguised enough to look tardis-esque .

There's nothing that cheers me up as much as fashion accessory advice from GD. It's just such a blatant and wonderful oxymoron

Anything that cannot fit into your jean pockets can be left in the car, there is no excuse for man bags...

i make an exception for work when i need to carry things, they go in my daysack.

It does indeed seem to be the fashion to look gay. Skinny jeans, men with straightened hair and moisturised skin?!

How can you find those bags comfy? They are not and never will. Ruck sacks are the best !!!

(I know its an ebay photo, really not light enough to use my iPhone to get a picture)

Set me back around £35

If you are Indiana Jones then yes, but with most men it looks dorky and/or camp.

From Jaffa Far's posts, I always thought he was mentally ill. That has confirmed it.

Bags are fine if you need to carry books, folders, laptop, big things like that. You do not need a bag to carry your wallet, cigarettes, mints, and other little things like that.

I am not

. I like to carry a book to read and CV's. I also used to take work no matter the weather, got my dinner in there and sat-nav and other bits.
