It’s that time of year when many men think it’s acceptable to downsize from backpacks to little, effete, over-the-shoulder satchels. Our design guy is such a man-bag man. He’s stopped wearing his blazer with screen-printed skulls on it, but has recently acquired an expensive-looking, softened-leather man-purse. We asked him to explain himself…

So, Gareth, what do you put in there? Your tampons?
*Silence*

What made you choose that particular murse?
No comment.

What do you say to people who might think it’s a tad gaylordy?
Please go away. *Cries*

In view of our coworker’s lack of in depth response on the subject, we ask you: Are man-bags ever acceptable?
