Just our ‘type’ of bag…

Christmas shopping can have pleasant side effects sometimes, as we found whilst perusing John Lewis recently. This quirky ‘play on pictures’ laptop sleeve by Ted Baker features a cool vintage typewriter image, and would make an ideal prezzie for the geeky guy (or gal) in your life. The laptop sleeve costs £30, and other bags [...]

Tasty Ted Baker leather bag

The new range at Ted Baker is out, and amongst the range of quality fashion clothing and accessories we have come to expect we discovered this rather nice ‘distressed’ messenger bag in soft grain leather. The tan coloured bag has classic vintage styling with the double pockets on the front of the bag, and is [...]

Mywalit messenger bag: too cool for school

The Italian designed and made Mywalit range of leather bags and purses has taken the UK by storm. The cool design combination of funky colours and classic lines is making them a firm favourite with guys and dolls, and we think they’re good value too for a luxury leather bag. Shown below is one of [...]

A cool canvas messenger bag for the London life

Hoxton, one of London’s trendiest cultural and artistic districts, is also home to a messenger bag shop that is such a part of the capital’s culture that even the name of the company is inspired by cockney rhyming slang. Tintac (which is slang for ‘sack’) makes a range of funky messenger bags including the Bloomsbury [...]

If there’s one thing that Fossil do well it’s getting the vintage look right, and their messenger bags are no exception with lots of antiqued [...]

A messenger bag that never felt better, despite the weird name.

Having a nose around the Ducti website and came across this very reasonably priced industrial felt messenger bag. We like the vintage styling and subdued colours but a little concerned about the durability of the felt. Can’t imagine it would be be very resilient in a traditional British downpour. Also, why did they call it [...]

5 Leather messenger bags for men with a sub £100 price tag

With a virtual budget of £100, we thought we’d have a look around some of the UK online and high street retailers to see what’s hot and what’s not in the world of leather messenger bags for men. Starting over at Debenhams, we didn’t expect to find anything particularly inspiring. We’ve always thought of Debenhams as a bit of [...]

Spartan military canvas man bag. Grunt.

Big enough for an A4 pad and at a squeeze a subnotebook or small laptop, this French military issue satchel is a steal at just under £11. No it’s not a typo, we said £11. I mean OK, it’s not the most luxurious item in the world, but it’s made from strong khaki canvas with a fully [...]

When it comes to messenger bag style for men, we generally think less is more.

There are two exposed side pockets either side [...]
