Shop men's bags from your favorite brands including Michael Kors, Kenneth Cole Reaction, COACH and more. 

How To Choose The Perfect Men’s Messenger Bag: 

Size. If you’re carrying around a mobile office, you’ll want to ensure that your messenger bag is large enough to accommodate your laptop, tablet, files and other business necessities. Before you make your purchase, remember to check out the dimensions of your new bag. 

Laptop Compartment. To better ensure the safety of your laptop, you’ll want to consider a laptop compartment that’s padded. Some even feature a waterproof finish. Again, remember to double-check the dimensions of your laptop versus the compartment.

Pockets. Besides the main compartment, you’ll want to have plenty of pockets to place your phone, chargers, cables, passport, wallet and such. Handy pockets make sure these important items are easily accessible. 

Shoulder Strap. Since you’ll be carrying around a lot, check out messenger bags with a wide, padded shoulder strap. To help distribute the weight, these styles can be worn as crossbody bags. 

Fabric. If you’re looking for a sophisticated feel, leather messenger bags are the ones for you. These bags are ideal for corporate settings. For a more casual vibe, nylon styles are the ones to tote.

Color. Most men’s messenger bags are available in the standard hues of black or brown. If you want to deviate from this norm and take a stylish chance, we suggest buying a cognac bag. This rich tan color is the neutral of the moment.
