Shoulder bags?

[Bugbear]

I cary a backpack over one shoulder quite a bit, but usually leave it in the car if I'm going in a store or something. I'm not sure that it really goes well with a kilt or anything else for that matter. A big rectangular shoulder pouch made of leather or stif canvas like everyone else is talking about would go over alright. It seems like letter cariers used to have those a lot and they looked alright...

I have an olive drab messenger bag that I quite like.

If something a little smaller would do you could get a Mark VII bag. If it was manly enough for Indiana Jones it should work for you.

Not sure if this is large enough:

That seems pretty functional and looks nothing like a purse.

I use a simple green swissgear messenger bag from Target that was $25. It's rectangular shape and the swiss army logo make it masculine looking.

I have a canvas messenger bag in olive and it works quite well.
But the link you posted, wow, that's a very nice bag. Perhaps I should order one

I never had that 'un-manly' feeling when using my 8 year old messenger bag from Dakine. It is an excellent bag, as it was made with ballistic nylon and it is water resistant. The bag is very versatile. I use it for bike riding, motorcycling, carrying lunch to work, and carrying my stuff when around town.

That 'un-manly' feeling may have something that you don't see lots of guys using a bag like that. Lot of guys use shoulder/messenger bags because not every one drives and they need something to haul their stuff. Shoulder/messenger bags offer easy access.

Just get one ans use it daily. you just may start a new trend in your neighbourhood.

I carry one just like this, except mine has a side view skull with a mohawk on it.
They called it the rocker skull, don't seem to have it anymore.

It isn't real big, but I just wanted something to carry my wallet, phone, keys and other odds and ends with me.
I carry it even when kilted, but I am past the point of being terribly concerned with what anyone else thinks of how I look or what I carry.
I am comfortable in the kilt, and have all my stuff in the bag.
Call it a skirt and purse if you like, I just smile and move on.
