Will you wear a man purse?

So I was at Hermes today with my fam. We were picking up a birkin for the wife which means I have to buy something too... I have too many sneakers and shoes so we went with a bag for me... I ultimately decided on a Hermes Kelly men’s briefcase....

But before I decided our sales person kept trying to get me to buy a man purse...




So how many of you guys would sport this? Or a Man purse


I ended up buying this

This will not end well.

Not a chance for me. Messenger bag or backpack. All tumi.

I have a Hermès belt and wallet. But that’s where I draw the line. And only those because no one knows they are Hermès.

Ninja...a man purse? For what? A laptop bag is for your laptop, a briefcase for your documents. What are you carrying everywhere with you that you need a man purse?

Briefcase looks great. Purse, not at my age. I would see myself in the mirror and give myself a heart attack.

This is my belt.

Now, to be clear, I’m not an under the radar guy. Not one bit.

But for some reason with this brand, I’m less obvious.

And to be super clear, I like your style. We are simply on different levels.

All this travel is killing me tho.

Was in LA all last week.

Back and forth from time zones messes with my equilibrium.

Purse too feminine. Briefcase passable lol.

Hermes overall has a feminine vibe. I'm not talking about the guys who wear Hermes I mean the way the products appear and are designed as a whole (compared to more masculine design language like say Stefano Ricci)

The exception being a few of their belts which are decent.

Manbags aren't my style but if you want to rock it, I say "go for it".

Whether or not someone can flex a fashion statement is more a function of how confidently they can roll rather than how they believe others might perceive them.

If manbags were my style, I'd step out boldly.

Fair enough.

But it’s 8 trips in 3 months. It’s a lot. I don’t enjoy travel.

And I like your ridiculous outfit. It’s says you don’t give a
