It is definatly not a man bag.



I have been looking for quite some time now for a bag to carry my "stuff" in. I have two Moleskines (planner & reporter) , an MP3 player, pens, markers, the occasional book, etc. I didn't want to have to carry a backpack, or a big messenger bag, in steps the man bag. I have talked to several people and a man bag, no matter the style is still basically a "man purse". The solution is very simple. If the bag in which a man carries is "Military Surplus" then it cannot be feminine. It can only be bad ass. I tried several stores around the area, several being the two stores in the area. Finally I went to Burlington. The Army Store is the best military surplus store that I have ever been to. This place has everything you could want.
The bag I got is classified as a deployment bag. Deployment can be defined as: the distribution of military forces prior to battle. So my new bag helps me to battle life and all the hardships it can muster up.
