Hi /fa/

Going to be starting college next week, and am on the lookout for a trendy new bag.

Not a backpack, like one of those over the shoulder ones, sort of like pic related but not so very plain. I'm a male.

Any recommendations on some nice ones?

Thanks!

Sorry to bump, but are leather satchels in?

Was about to buy one and would like to know aswell. They're kind of a classic though so I figure you can't go wrong with them.

Just an fyi- they're technically out of style right now, but if you like em, you can definitely rock em. Just make sure that you're a more preppy/smart dresser.

Here's an infographic. The one you posted looks bad childish, imo. What are you even looking for? Leather? Canvas?

Cheers for that! Honestly I screwed up that OP picture. I rushed it without thinking, so it's a bit misleading. Just took the first picture on google image search I found.

I didn't know they were called Messenger Bags. Yes I was definitely looking more towards leather ones.

If that's really you, go for a backpack instead.
Seeing some built /fit/ guy walking around with a messenger bag could look odd as opposed to a skinny/ottermode guy.

Nice chest btw ;_;

Well, I don't really know of any messenger bags, sorry :\

These guys are just elitist. You can wear a messenger bag, it will look good, not as good as it does on skinny people, but still decent

Excellent thanks for that. Was worried there for a second, seeing as I'm not the most fashionable person around. Canadian, mostly just wear lumberjack shirts and jeans, so didn't know if a bag that goes over the shoulder would be appropriate.

I'd probably agree tho that a backpack is still best. I just told you how to find a messenger bag if that's your hearts desire. Generally, a more built guy like you would look caricatured carrying around a messenger bag, and not dressing preppy would add to that.

Sounds good to me. You're probably right. So in that case, are there many trendy backpacks, or should I just stick with the old faithful DC backpack I've had since I was in grade 10.

A backpack on a huge guy, especially if it's a small simplistic one will make him look like a 5 year old.
A Canvas/Leather messenger bag is always nice.

Yeah... I'm not really sure what to suggest for a larger frame. I've been hoping for someone else to jump in.

>>6849285
Basically, just don't get something small. A larger messenger bag could be good. Don't get a fancier one like that fossil I linked you to. That was basically just to show you another design. All my advice is really vague, sorry :\

maybe get some techy looking backpack, like a military one, or if as you said you wear jeans and flannels maybe something leathery
