The Problem With Luxury Bags for Men

Look, I'm not a bag guy. But I want to be. There's something about carrying around a bag as an accessory that's appealing, even if I don't really functionally use one. So maybe if I got a bag it would force me to be a bag guy. Either that or I'm using it as a justification for buying luxury goods I don't need. But no, I would never... This is not an exhaustive list of bags for men by any means. Just bags I like and think are cool, and I could see myself wearing. Also some discussion about carrying bags as a trend in general and what fits into our lives vs what's just an affectation. Plenty of bags on here I don't like too, so there's that! What kind of bags are you guys carrying? Could you see yourself with a top-handle, shoulder, or strictly cross-body? What did I miss, put me on to your favs. Carl Friedrik Weekender: https://www.carlfriedrik.com/products/leather-weekend-bag-palissy?colour=cognac Aest Studios Capture Super Tote: https://aeststudios.com/products/capture-super-tote-bag 00:00 - Intro 01:24 - Julius Bags 04:02 - Rick Owens 05:47 - Balenciaga 07:38 - Bags for the Gym 08:23 - Louis Vuitton and Pharrell's Genius Marketing 13:23 - Rimowa (& Why I can't Justify It) 15:24 - Carl Friedrik Luggage and Weekender Bags 16:08 - Celine 17:39 - Yves Saint Laurent Briefcases 18:59 - My Love/Hate Relationship With Amiri 20:52 - Dolce & Gabbana Vittoria Bag 21:25 - Aest Studios Capture Super Tote 22:26 - Acne Studios Camero Bag 22:54 - Lacoste Reporter Bag 23
