Men With Baggage

Yesterday the NY Daily News ran a photo essay titled Murses & The Dudes Who Dig Them, capturing various men with their man-bags around Manhattan. Some of the guys are total fashion victims, bragging about their $2000 designer murses which they must update every season. Oy vey.

When I first got to NYC, I was informed that I too would become a murse-man, because “everything that used to live on the front seat of your car now has to be carried everywhere.” So far I’ve resisted, relying on a regular old backpack, but lately I’ve been eyeballing those cool Freitag messenger bags that are made out old tires or whatever. Today’s question: Are you a murse-man? What do you carry?
