I'm tired of having my pockets over-stuffed with all sorts of crap.

Can you recommend any good crossbody bags?
Which shape is most /fa/? Squarish like picrel or more like a croissant-shaped sling?

If you carry your stuff in a bag, what size do you think works well for you?
>>
How much shit do you need as a man? Also, stop wearing skinny jeans.
>>
women have bags because they carry makeup, do you have to touch up ur appearance every few hours?
you don't need to carry random objects
>>
>>18726553
I don't wear skinny jeans. I just don't like stuff in my pockets.

keys, wallet, two phones unfortunately (one for work), sunglasses, knife. It's not really an issue in colder weather when I can put stuff in my jacket pockets, but it's a pain in the neck in summer.
>>
>>18726550
This is gonna be good.

Bags for men have been a thing for nearly ten years. Let's see what recommendations /fa/ can come up with.
>>
>>18726550
I prefer a rectangular camera-bag style. I think wearing a fanny pack-style back across your chest just makes you look like a drug dealer.

When I'm traveling, I'll carry my stuff in a Longchamp Boxford. Passport, phone, maps, camera, sunglasses. I don't like the tacticool look of a lot of crossbody bags marketed to men. Looks very mallninja.

As for recommendations, what's your budget and style?
>>
>>18726550
everyone i see wearing these looks like a faggot. all you need is your phone, keys, and wallet. these days, you dont even need a dedicated wallet. if you cant fit keys and a phone in your pockets youre fucking gay
>>
>>18726642
Which flyover state do you live in?
>>
>>18726550
Just get a gucci one
>>
>>18726565
ditch the wallet for a card holder and money clip, wallets are for retards who think they need to carry a ton of bullshit when you only need driver's license, couple credit cards, insurance card, done. two phones is a bitch though, that might warrant a bag. sunglasses hang on the front of your shirt. knife should be so slim you forget you're carrying
>>
>>18726550
Don't get a bag like that. Just get a nice leather satchel or unstructured briefcase.
>>
>>18726696
>two phones is a bitch though, that might warrant a bag.
That's the thing that's fucking me up. I'd just as soon carry no phone at all, but it's not possible for me right now.

My wallet is already pretty slim. It's got an integrated money clip. It's the least of my problems.

>>18726718
I like the idea of a leather satchel.

Depends on what your day and travel looks like. Traffic is a nightmare in my city, so I usually get the train and pick a bag size based on the day ahead. Crossbody if a short day (carries my stuff and any additional small shopping) or a messenger bag if I need more shit like for work (laptop, documents, lunch etc) and a backpack is the biggest part and that's for if I have a big day planned for various things.

But if you use a car to go everywhere, a crossbody becomes pretty pointless.
>>
>>18726793
Ah yes, DC. "Chocolate City".
>>
>>18726550
How does the strap go under his collar and then out around his back? Surely thats very inconvenient and not as practical as this image would have you believe

It’s funny because you are a gay man.
>>
>>18726980
There’s nothing funny about it. You and your fellow Black Americans are treated terribly. Chronically underfunded schools, for example. Look at the absolute state of your grammar.
>>
>>18726569
>Bags for men have been a thing for nearly ten years
Closer to 15. Once smartphones became commonplace and got larger and larger, they no longer fit into men’s pants pockets.
>>
>>18727002
the fuck kind of tiny pockets you have?

>>18726943
Its not a flyover city and is also a very gay city. I am therefore the authority on whether crossbody bags are gay—IE, worn by faggots. I can tell you that they are
>>
>>18727448
Just like the watch threads
>>
>>18726550
nice purse faggot
>>
>>18727498
It's also a very diverse city, which is why we can all tell you're a highly melanated individual prone to violent crime and possessed of a simian IQ.
>>
>>18727619
This. As soon as he typed out DC you could have safely disregarded anything else Tre’Dontrelle here is saying.
>>
>>18727310
Normal, straight fit jeans. An iPhone does not comfortably fit in the pockets. If it’s in your back pocket it sticks out and you can’t sit down without risking breaking it. If it’s in the front pocket it impedes movement.

In any event, it also looks fucking stupid, like a small paperback book stuffed in your pocket.

What’s the alternative? Cargo shorts? Oh wait, this is /fa/. Some of you probably still wear cargo shorts.
>>
>>18726723
I have two phones for work at my new job and I had already made my own wallet and bought a razor to reduce pocket size. I'm just going to make a tooled cell phone holster this weekend.
>>

Tell me you work in IT without telling me you work in IT.

>>18726550
Briefcase
Small messenger bag
Small backpack (though not one that looks like you stole it from a schoolboy)
Camera bag

These are all good options. Better than wearing a bumbag across your chest.
>>
>>18727664
Extremely gay coded
Just wear a bumbag across your chest. Get a Gucci one
>>
Men who are obsessed with what does and doesn’t look gay are invariably deeply closeted individuals.
>>
>>18727732
This
In a similar vein, the ones screeching all the time about trannies are almost always some sort of closeted queer

This is what I use if I have to carry more than can fit in my trouser pockets.
It’s at least 25 years old. Not too big. (Normal paperback for size comparison)

Mostly I use a big messenger bag for commuting to work on my bike. It fits all my work stuff, plus a change of clothes.
