"Why does PJ make me wear this d*mn purse??"

Stuff has spent the long summer shoved miserably in the pockets of my blue jeans and khakis.
Stuff like my wallet. It presses against my backside when I sit. My keys scratch my thighs with every step. When my reading glasses or sunglasses aren't clattering to the ground, they are hooked through the top of my shirt; if I cross my arms with abandon, I could break the frames. My iPhone tugs me down, and if I'm sitting when it chirps, I panic: How will I fish it out of my pocket in time?
As we approach September, with every hint of chilled air I dream of jackets. Jackets have pockets in the lining for a wallet or cellphone, and side pockets for keys and earbuds and little slips of pockets on the chest that are perfect for glasses.
Jackets have space for all of this stuff that has become part of my daily armor, stuff I didn't used to own, like an iPhone and earbuds and reading glasses.
But maybe I — and you too, dude — should be thinking about more than blazers and sport coats and ski parkas.
Bags. Maybe it's finally time for men to start carrying them. And not just to work. A bag to the coffee shop. To the bar. To the ballgame and the cage-fighting extravaganza and a bag to the monster truck show.
You know, guy bags.
"Just don't call it a 'man purse,' " said Courtney Colavita, fashion editor for Details magazine. "Don't approach it as fashion for guys. Approach it as making your life easier. Even if you wear a blazer in the winter, there is a risk. It could get weighed down. I embrace a bag for guys."

brainbleach.....STAT!

That commercial looks like a take-off of a Seinfeld episode.
“It’s not a purse! It’s European!”
Not just no - H%&* NO!
To hold his 2 of 1 coupons for free range abalone.
Sure..if you’re a guy who likes eyeliner, facials and lip gloss.
Faggotry is the perfect description of this gabage.
If it makes you feel better, get an OD green one and call it a ruck sack. (”Alice Pack” probably wouldn’t be much better than “backpack” LOL)
Been carrying a backpack everywhere for more than 20 years. Was essential in China.
That includes church, restaurants, dentist, . . .
I have an ID pouch round my neck and I keep a couple of things in there.
Anything else goes in pockets.
LOL! - I’m so saving that picture!!
INDEED. And shirts with 8 pockets
I have a bag, but it is busy carrying my balls, anything else can fit in my pockets or holster{s}.
I utilize a black safari vest in the summer, its great for concealed carry with a shoulder holster, plenty of pockets for things like extra magazines. Much easier to draw whether standing or sitting. I’ve found black to be more discreet than either the OD Green or Tan vests.
I see you were here first and even got a better picture!
Backpacks for men.
