7 stylish man bags that combine form and function

When it comes to dressing up their outfits, men often find their options limited. Bags however, remain as one of the easiest accessories that a guy can incorporate into his everyday style.

From backpacks to totes, duffels and more, there are a multitude of styles to choose from. Each one speaks to a different personality – or fits a different lifestyle and occasion.

Here’s a look at some of the key designs of the season.

High Shine

Dior’s nylon messenger bag combines practicality and panache. Not a fanny pack, it is meant to be slung casually over the shoulder and across the chest.

---

Camo Cool

If you are opting for a backpack, do make sure to choose one that is a little “dressed up”. Tumi’s design comes decorated with a bold camo print.

Boardroom Bold

For the cool creative, a slim folio case would be the best bet. But, the usual black won’t do. This graphic leather one from Montblanc will draw all eyes.

Stylish On The Shoulder

A messenger bag is just the thing for those who commute to work. Gucci’s features a whimsy print of leaping tigers.

---

Sleek And Chic

You may think that duffel bags are only for the gym. Saint Laurent believes otherwise, with a street-wise, all-black design.

---

Form To Function

A tote is not something all men can pull off. But with the right attitude, a roomy carry-all – like this one from Burberry – can add flair to your dressing.

Fashionably Versatile

If you want a different iteration to the backpack, there is the sling bag. Louis Vuitton has one with a strap that can be adjusted for left- or right-side carry.
