Yesterday I fell for and bought one of these on a whim

I love it, its smells awesome 🙂
that's not a man bag, it's a satchel 🙂
No its not, its a courier bag, in soft luxurious leather.
Nah, its definitely a satchel.

Guess you'll soon be needing a bike to match, then...
100% satchel op.
No teasel, this is for the stylish executive about town walking casually between tube stops...

CFH will be here soon to back me up...
I have something similar in black. I needed something a little classier than my pannier bag for taking the laptop to business meetings. It has that well worn, 'I'm a busy man' look that you can only get by buying things from a charity shop.
Why have you posted a picture of a man with a satchel in your own defence?
It's a satchel.
This is a man bag:

How do you 'fall for' a satchel?
Are those buckles real? They'll get annoying after a while.
Are those buckles real?
Yes, but I find that in the best possible Sales personality type display, the length of time spent opening it allows my customer plenty of "look at my posh [b]courier [/b] bag" opportunity 😀
I ended up with a small Timbuk2 man-bag. Similar to a courier bag, but not!

... all the while the customer's thinking "isn't he a bit old for a satchel?"

FTFY
Nice! I had a similar one and loved it.
I had just started school and it was perfect for carrying my pumps and gym skirt.

About what exactly. Its not my fault that you lack the class and subtle approval of the silent majority that appreciate my new bag.
So you're aiming for fakenger???? Don't forget to wear your little sister's jeans and get some knuckle tats. But do it "ironically".

Missed the 'I've just had a Phall thread' then? plenty of feelings being discussed in there.
Kryton. I think you're on your own in the appreciation club.
For goodness sake ,keep it stylish.

Dont listen to them, nice blazer and a pair of clarks commandos and you'll be set for the day!.
The Phall thread was about his intestinal track dissolving, the satchel on the other hand might prevoke thoughts about kittens.
Don't worry Kryton,I am sure you can carry it off 😉

An insight into Kryton's minds eye?

I've made myself feel bad now.
I've got this mental image of kryton57 walking down the road with his [s]satchel[/s] man bag worrying that everyone's thinking 'It's a satchel'.
Perhaps Jamie could do a little sign for him to print and attach to the bag;
"No, it's a man bag, actually"
?

I have a low-alpine man bag for wallet keys passport phone cables and power booster and a rucksack for shopping and spare underwear, baby wipes, nappy bags etc. With that nice satchel I could combine the two . How much shopping does it hold?
Our Man receptionist brought this the other day. Personally I think it's awful and a terrible waste of money but he was squealing with excitement as he stroked it. I found the whole thing very uncomfortable.
Kryton. I think you're on your own in the appreciation club.
He's not. It's a satchel for sure, but a very nice satchel.
teadrinker - I hope you told him he could have bought a bike for that!
Did it come with unlimited free shandy? 😉

I will concede that according to the O.E.D. its a satchel.
Crankboy I reckon everything you mention goes in there. Without using the front pockets I have and LT and its PSU, several Apple cables and sundry items (pens, hayfever tablets) and an ipad mini. I haven't put anything in the document section either yet. 🙂
Bah! This is a proper man bag!

Pockets for magazines, smoke and frag, space for link and claymores
For the price of the Louis vuitton bag he could have 40.6 of my hand bag and rucksack combo and carry a lot more.
