Gadgetry leads to need. And if you're like me, I hate toting things around in pockets. I agree Robert. Gadgetry leads to need. And if you’re like me, I hate toting things around in pockets.

Cell phones, mp3 players, and other gadgets with their power sources and/or connecting cables really don't fit that well in pockets, unless you have large ones with zippers so things so objects don't fall out.

Indiana completely solidified the ultimate-man'ness of such an item. And well before his time. @Becker: Good point. Indiana completely solidified the ultimate-man’ness of such an item.

You get an A for creativity, organization and humor. First of all I want to congratulate you on your new purchase. You will see very quickly how handy it is and obviously oh-so stylish. Secondly, excellent choice of cough drops and pens to carry around "on your person". Thirdly, the best thing about having such a bag (besides the recycled seat belt strap of course) is that you can carry whatever you want in it and nobody will ever have to know. Lastly, my only suggestion for an additional item to carry would be your wallet. Having a form of identification and form of payment may be needed from time to time, especially if you happen to meet your future girlfriend who wants to put the bag in her rotation of purses and need to purchase a coffee for her.

Indiana Jones DID carry his awesome in his man-bag. Anna, I actually don't have this particular bag. I have a smaller girlier northface one. Just watch out for the "black hole" syndrome when it comes to carrying a bag. This condition tricks your mind into thinking you really can carry your life with you everywhere and justifies nail clippers, advil, gloves, lotions, important documents, jewelry, travel mug WITH lid, pencils and highlighters in addition to the perfect pen, extra set of keys for when you lock yourself out of your car with the engine running, and receipts for everything you have bought in the last two weeks. Or maybe that's just what you'll find in my purse right now. Funniest cleverest post ever. Indiana Jones DID carry his awesome in his man-bag. Anna, I actually don’t have this particular bag.

Which brings me to my second point; I don't know how I feel about the fact that you may now be more likely to be seen with a bag than myself. For those who have books to tote as well, JCrew has plenty of excellent (mantastic) options. Finally, Pentax RSVP pens foreva! First, you may carry more accessories than I do.

I've been carrying mine for almost a year (no purse rotation needed) and I still love it. My favorite comment was a co-worker. "Your purse is so...uhh...industrial." Thank you. I think. Careful with that Tuna Salad in your bag. I don't think mayo + Patagonia is an approved combination.

I find this post mildly disturbing, yet only acceptable because Indiana Jones had one and he was the coolest figure from my childhood... well.. him and Han Solo.
