The Battle of the Man Bags: Satchel or Backpack?

Post by Cal » Wed Aug 21, 2013 3:20 pm

Since this divisive yet vital topic of discussion has resurfaced recently, I've decided that it is time that we settled it once and for all. Satchel or backpack?

Satchel for me, unless I need a gym bag. Less bulky, doesn't make your back sweat in the summer and the shape keeps papers flat.

Satchels are for cunts, backpacks are far more versatile.

EDIT: These bags are the worst and anyone who wears them is a knob.

I have this (in black leather). Is this classified as a satchel?

I'd class that as 'other'. I have similar. <roll>

Hold it in your hands. Or use a carrier bag.

Is that your sneaky way of saying "I have one of these, please don't hate me Ramone"? If so, it's OK, I do hate you.

I've just bought a new satchel/messenger bag <diva>

I find them quite good for work as I don't have to take much with me. Just my lunch, a book, tampons and some anti-diarrhea tablets.
