Does the Bag Speak of the Man?















Recently in the Spring 2009 Collection of Louis Vuitton, totes for men were sent down the runway carried by African-American models. In today's society African- American men are more open to style and have become comfortable with being labeled "metrosexuals" by the masses. Some men carry them for fashion purposes while others use them as a means of utility for their eventful schedules whether its traveling, transporting client files, gym attire, or a change of clothing for an evening event. These wardrobe additions come in various styles, sizes, and shapes. We have seen some of our current style icons such as Kanye West and Skateboard P, whom loves his custom made Hermes Purple Croc, show off their treasures rather uniquely. Will you carry a man bag? You decide...
