Men Need Handbags Too: This Is Why

By Alyssa Martinez @ItsMariaAlyssa

As times change, you may have noticed many men, especially younger men, carrying around luxury bags. They can come in lots of different styles, maybe you've seen a sling bag, a messenger bag, or even a more classic briefcase, but is there a specific reason why more men are investing in a trendy men's bag?

When it comes down to it, the most likely reason for men to use bags is that they are a functional tool, but there are other benefits, as follows:

Keep The Basics Out of Clothing

Listen, pockets are great. But they can't carry everything. The idea of men putting things in their pockets was a great idea back when men only ever carried around their wallets, and maybe their car keys. But things have changed these days. Now men want to carry their masks, hand sanitiser, a phone, sunglasses and more. I'm sure your pockets can fit all these accessories, but do you really want to be stuffing your pockets? Opt for a bag, to just carry things with ease.

Space For Larger Phones

As we all know, phones are getting bigger and heavier. Men often say that current phones are uncomfortable to put in their pockets when they're sitting down. On top of that, you also have to fit your keys as well. This is where bags have all the space in the world.

Space For More Important Stuff

If you use a bag, not only will your trousers look much better, but you will also be able to carry some important stuff with you on the way. This includes hand sanitiser, sunglasses (with a case), your phone, its charger, some lip balm, water...I could go on. The point is, that you can actually carry things you need, and not take the minimal route every single day.

Things Don't Fall Out

We've all been there, we take the train, get off and find out that we've dropped our card somewhere, or that our sunglasses have come unhooked from our polo shirt tops. The days of things falling out of your pockets are gone. Buy a classic, stylish luxury bag from the Louis Vuitton boutique and hit the town without worrying over your pockets.

Bags Are Safe

Pickpocketing is a common issue for men, especially in larger cities, or when travelling. If you want to keep your possessions safe, and not have to worry about things getting stolen while you're out and about, a quality bag is a fantastic option. They aren't foolproof, but they are a hell of a lot better than open pant pockets.

Keep Accessories Safe

If you want your accessories to actually last, they shouldn't be kept in your pocket. In your pocket, as you walk, your glasses can be bent, your leather wallet will wear from constant rubbing, and your keys can scratch your phone. It makes no sense to invest in a really nice wallet or sunglasses, just to ruin them in your pant pocket, so a bag becomes a fantastic choice.

Bags Improve Style

There's one last thing a bag does that can't be understated. It makes your style improve overall. When you pick a great designer handbag that suits your personal style, already goes with most of your clothes and is made from quality materials, you instantly look better. This means you can take less time and energy on putting together your outfit and just use the bag to bring it all together.

Now that you know how great a bag can be for men, and how much they can make life easier, all you need to do is remember that luxury bags are investments, so take the time to find a great brand, like Louis Vuitton, and get shopping!
