Haterade: Backpacks

Can I be the first person that says that this ridiculous backpack obsession needs to stop. We are not eight-years-old anymore, we are grown men. I was looking back on Tommy Ton's NYFW Street Style Coverage, where the backpack bandwagon has fully revealed its ugly face. I live by the simple style rule that a Man should look like a man, a Woman should look like a woman, and Keith Richards can do whatever the hell he wants. A mans bag should be masculine, timeless, age beautifully, and NEVER have two shoulder straps.

I will keep this rant short and sweet. A wise man once told me that a mans bag must be carried with a firm grip at all costs. However, i 'd like to think theres a grey-area for this rule during the "morning coffee/Blackberry shuffle", where shoulder straps are temporarily acceptable.
