    Need a little bit of personal shopping.

    I want/need a 'Man Bag'.

    Must be able to hold a Samsung Q1 Ultra, a pad of A4 (squared rather than lined) and a book.

    Now I'm not longer wearing a suite to work, a breifcase would look to pretentious, so i need a manbag type thing. Anyone know a good place to get one? Anywhere round knightsbridge/victoria would be good.

    Someone here must have some kind of fassion sense!

    Does the squaring make a difference to the size it takes up in a bag?

    Re: Need a little bit of personal shopping.

    I prefer my mansack ... I mean rucksack!

    Anyway, why do they call they "man bags" - surely they're just satchels?
    My only concern is should I hide my true identity? A costume maybe?

    0iD: Plus weeing in it every now & again does it good
    scaryjim: 10" is just a little large to hold comfortably in one hand, which makes it a lot harder to tap, swipe and generally interact with.

    I think madduck might be on the right lines, a quick google shows the type of thing i'm after. Need something thats 'smart casual' ie leather or similar. Budget say ~200 if its well made. Any HELPFUL suggestions?

    Hide design make some really nice ones. They usually have a good range in somewhere like John Lewis. I have one for work and it carries all my stuff inc work lappy, pad, ipod etc without any problems.

    Or perhaps I meant debenhams.

    http://www.debenhams.com/webapp/wcs/...9780_275980_-1

    In fact I even found their website.

    I really must go and do some work...

    I might swing by debenhams on the way home tonight if i get out of the office early enough... hard to find work i can really do today! (Need some licenses for things, the database server to not take 16 mins every time you try to add a just few million rows....)

    Everyone else can burn for their mockery.

    are you carbon-neutral? NOTHING more manly than watching your carbon footprint!

    Went looking for man-bags with a friend last week who is starting self-employment. We found some nice ones in Reiss.
