nevermind, i see the metrosexual sunglass idea isn't going to work for you. no self-loving metro. would ever be caught with such a plain vanilla phone (good for you i say!).

I'm an almost 40 year old in hicks-ville Minnesota and a far cry from metro anything. My jeans are Levi's and are either your basic jeans or the carpenter type. The things on my key ring get me in my office where I spend 6 days a week being an IT geek. My hair is a little spiked today because I just got it cut, but I can't seem to get my sunglasses to balance there all day long.

Ditch the jeans & buy cargo pants.
Plenty of room for keys, cards, phone, and extra ammo.

And the shirt I'm wearing today came from the SPAM museum. Yes, there is a museum just for SPAM in Austin Minnesota.

Senator Craig was married with kids too. LOL. (kidding, of course)

Here's some suggestions for ad copy:

"Here's a black bag. Put your keys, cell phone and Ipod in it."

In that would probably work for most of your product line.

Okay, I need to stop giving Joel (phred) a hard time. I confess that I have carried a man purse at various periods. Usually some sort of small traveller's satchel bought from REI. Big enough for a book, sandwich, small water bottle, etc. Also I have sometimes worn a little zippered pouch with belt loops, to carry glasses, wallet, palmtop computer, etc. I don't think any have been red, but I can't swear to it. So, actually, I am a man-purse user too. There, I'm out of the closet. Give me a hug.

LOL, really. I am literally laughing out loud and the guy in the cube next to me just came over to see what I was laughing about.

Craig was busted in the airport that I usually use, and the St Paul Saints (minor league baseball) just had a bobble foot giveaway.


As Z said, NTTAWWT...

Mose,
I like that second pic (first one is waaay too swish) but where did you find it? Might like one myself but not for every day.

Ooops, I see that the pics I refer to are way back on the first page. Didn't notice that this thread was so long....

Nope. Not gay. Just the thing, if you want to look like an electrican.

But, not a gay electrician.

Exactly! And since I'm not an electrician, I don't own one, but I'm thinking it would be perfect for holding gear while in a river fly fishing.

Why not just use one of those small nylon digi-camera cases you clip on you belt or pants?

[svandamme]

do you mean geekbags or fannypacks?

[Dutchie]

Moderator,, could you please move this thread to the Miata section ??

Why are they called European man bag ? made here maybe, i never seen someone use it here. Oh wait we dont have guns ....

[alf]

I carried one of these in all black for several years, great for totting a laptop, note book, pens and a few small items....compact and light.

Carry this when I need to haul more stuff, hand made in Seattle. Great bag, but kinda heavy.

Just ordered this one as a SLR camera bag in cognito and use as a bicycle pannier....it is a converted Swedish gas mask bag. The silly patch comes off when I get it.

Funny, when I travel I'll often carry a small man bag to carry things like the camera, guidebook, that sort of thing, but i wouldn't be caught dead carrying one around in daily life.

I still can't believe that people carry guns around with them in the USA. I really can't wrap my mind around that one.

Oh, it's pretty easy. I see cops with guns everyday and then I think, "Hey, I have a right to defend myself too and I don't have to wait for a cop to arrive either." Besides, holster technology is way ahead of manbags these days. There's no way to not look gay with a manbag, but you'd never know from looking at me that I'm armed.
