It’s that time of year when we are reminded by Cupid (or some other commercial venture 😉) to gift the one you love. And if you struggled at Christmas to buy for the man in your life, don’t despair, Bagwhispers is coming to the rescue with 10 bags for any man in your life. From a corporate boss to a street style king. And no, you don’t need to go bankrupt investing in Pharrell Williams’ latest creations at Louis Vuitton. Let’s go!
It’s a man’s world
For the man in your life that keeps himself sharp in the corporate world.
From Smythson (Bond Street) London, the Portman Bag in Panama, £850. For the man who likes a long strap on his work bag.
For the man who likes to wear brown around town, the Spin briefcase from Bally is a business bag form £1450.
The budget option is from Tommy Hilfiger, the textured Slim Pique laptop bag an it has a strap on reverse that fits over the handles of a trolley luggage bag. Price £130.
For backpack lovers
For those who need to carry a bit more whilst keeping mobile, and still want some designer vibes, how about these two backpacks:
From the Boss collection by Hugo Boss, there’s the coated-velour backpack with a subtle outline logo for £239.
For the budget option, head to ASOS.com for the Lyle & Scott Tote backpack, priced £50. Ideal for anyone who has nostalgia for their father’s love of golf in the 1980’s and a lovely v-neck wool jumper.
Street Smarts
For the more casual looks and the man in your life that keeps a street style edge to his wardrobe.
From Dior, the house has put its brand codes front and centre in the men’s Spring ’24 collection. Check out these two bags; The 8 bag and the Safari North-South mini tote bag.
For a more budget friendly designer brand name and for the mod fan in your life, head to Fred Perry, for the Tonal Barrel Bag, price £90.
Too hot to handle?
For those who want to go all out, and get a weekend bag that is unique or ahead of the curve, may I introduce to you some heavy weights in men’s fashion; Prada, Emporio Armani and Paul Smith.
For Prada, you will need to include a city break to Paris to soak up iconic weekend bag inspiration. Head to Galeries Lafayette Haussmann to the 1978 Pop Up and be inspired.
For Giorgio Armani fans, you will need to contact the brand to get notifications on the Autumn/Winter ’24 collection availability for this soft boxy weekender.
And finally, from Paul Smith who shows us that it isn’t just the hairdressers who rock the waist pouch bag. Straight from the runway and in different colours. Reference looks 13 and 29 when contacting the brand.
For the keen eyed readers amongst you, will you notice I couldn’t keep my shortlist just to 10 men’s bags. I had to squeeze in one more to make 11 due to the fabulous options out there. May Valentine’s Day gift shopping for the main man in your life be a bit less daunting. Maybe consider a new bag for his wardrobe.
With love ❤️ this February, from the Bagwhispers team.
