With women’s fashion, it’s an easy one with pockets and for some probably less sheer/thin or tight-fitting clothing depending on their preferences, but for men…? What would you like to see done differently in men’s fashion?

I'm not a dude, but I think guys should embrace the purse( or manbag if you prefer). I love carrying all my shit with me.
Hmm, I feel like the unisex backpack/slingbag may be what more folks are converging on. Purses increasingly only make sense for formal occasions, imo. Regardless, whatever one calls them, I tend to agree!
Plus, if cargo pants are so loathed, only makes sense to make some kinda bag to lug odds & ends the norm.
I bought a sling backpack a few years ago and love it. I wanted to carry my keys, phone charger, wallet, cell phone, extra batteries for my hearing aid, band-aids, tissues, etc, but pockets only give you so much storage. Cram them full of too much stuff and they tend to bulge in very unsightly ways.
With my sling, I can carry everything I need without stuffing my pockets. It's very convenient.
The only downside is that my wife insists on calling it my "purse." Why can't men carry around a bag to contain things? Women get purses. Why are men confined to whatever we can cram into our pockets?
Do you have a slingbag you recommend? I saw someone mention one either here or in one of the cross-posts of this but it was a way pricy brand.
This is the one I bought for myself: https://a.co/d/bqpNGrw
It's $19 and, while it's small, it can hold a decent amount of items. It's lated me 4 years ago far with no discernable wear
Recently, my son needed one, but he needed the ability to carry a water bottle as well. I bought him this one: https://a.co/d/3pS2W0F
This one is $23 and bigger. Plus, it has a water bottle holder. My son has only used it for a two weeks so I can't attest to how well it holds up.
Oh nice! The first is more in line with an in-between of decent storage & compactness that I've been kind of interested in since learning of this type of bag. Thanks!
Yeah, the unisex bag is fine. Timbuk2 messenger bags have been my go-to for years. I'm not sure I even own an actual purse! 😂
We've been that way in UK for a while now! It's very common in Europe too. People of all genders carry tote bags or wear cross body bags!
Why do you think we have cargo pants? Why carry around a heavy thing when you can distribute the weight between a bunch of pockets.
My guy, have you tried carrying a power bank in the leg pocket of your cargos?! It is far less comfortable than having it in a cross body bag or fanny pack
Power bank as in a portable battery for charging your phone? If so yes, the only problem is that if I dont have a belt it will start pulling my pants down. If you mean something larger than a 7 inch x 3 inch black brick then I would probably just not keep it on my person.
