Men's purses for a belt: how to choose and wear it correctly?

The convenience of waist bags has been tested since antiquity. Subsequently, they have repeatedly gained popularity, underwent many changes and in the last couple of years have become an absolute trend. Since belt bags can be carried by everyone, they may well replace traditional men's handbags in functionality and beauty.

All bags with a strap that can be fastened to the belt were created primarily for comfort (they are also called belt bags). Many people find it annoying to have to carry a purse by hand or on the shoulder. Backpacks are not suitable for everyone due to size, load, overheating in summer and other minor inconveniences.

Belt purses have many advantages:

• they leave their hands free (this is convenient not only for people associated with manual labor, but also for absolutely everyone);
• fixed in position in front and at hand level, which will save you from unnecessary movements;
• depending on their size, they can be used as a wallet or storage for larger things;
• do not put a lot of stress on the shoulders and back;
• allow you to keep all valuable things in sight;
• a variety of models look good with any outfit.

Such bags are indispensable for any activity: at work, walking, playing sports, traveling. They like to use them in everyday life, in order not only to keep everything you need at hand, but also to complement your image with a stylish thing.

Despite the fact that the range of handbags for men is not too wide, there is still variety in this matter. To choose the right option, you need to decide on the style, while you can focus on the wardrobe and the type of main activity. Several types of accessories should be distinguished here.

• Classic... Rectangular or square purses that hold their shape well and do not sag, even when half full. Most often they are made from leather and its imitation. They are appreciated by fans of business style. This also includes models of envelopes and clutches.

• Everyday (informal)... Their shape may deviate slightly from the correct geometric, with a flap or zippers. They sew from both expensive and simpler materials. Examples of these are pocket bags or wallets.

• Sports. This includes soft bags that are ergonomically and designed for sports or outdoor activities. They can be both elongated and close in shape to an oval or triangle.

• Of course, in a man's arsenal there should not be only one purse, but the most universal option is considered casual... In addition, depending on the situation, their size may be different. There are very compact handbags that can hold only keys or a phone, and there are also more capacious ones.

When choosing a material for a purse, its appearance, wear resistance, strength, resistance to manifestations of the external environment and availability are of great importance. Most often, belt bags are made from several materials.

• Leather. Among the obvious advantages of a leather purse are its aesthetic appearance, naturalness and durability. With proper care, all these qualities can be preserved for several years.
• Artificial leather cheaper and less capricious in care than natural. You can even find bags that are difficult to distinguish by their appearance, but they are noticeably inferior in quality.
• Suede leather in any processing it looks expensive and original. In order for the purse to retain its gloss for a long time, you need to follow it. For everyday wear, it is better to choose an imitation with less hairiness.
• Polyester - lightweight material, resistant to cold and heat, does not fade, easy to wash. It is one of the most popular materials for making sports belt bags. Cloak fabric is similar to it.
• Rubberized PVC Film - a novelty in the bag market. It can be transparent or colored. The manufacturer promises a long service life and protection of the contents from rain and snow.

The most popular colors for men's handbags are black and brown. This is quite explainable by their practicality and versatility - dark accessories will suit almost any clothing... And if you start shopping, then it is with these flowers.

Slightly less in demand are gray bags, as well as any shades of brown, including burgundy.

Colored purses, in terms of their decorative qualities, may well replace an accessory such as a belt. Therefore, you can safely choose any bright option. Of the more familiar ones - blue, green, olive, terracotta. They can complement a casual or sporty look by making it brighter.

Red, orange and purple purses are less common. Confident, energetic men choose bright accessories. A similar effect is produced by handbags with inscriptions or prints. Camouflage is a favorite pattern for all men. Geometric patterns are also common - such a bag can be safely borrowed from your other half or worn in turn.

There are only two ways to wear a waist purse.

• At the waist. This way you can emphasize a slender figure, but if it is far from ideal, it is better to lower the purse a little lower - to the level of the hips. The bag itself can be positioned in front or on the side.
• Over shoulder. Here, the bag can be on the chest, under the arm or on the back. This is suitable for those who want to stand out.

The waist purse can be worn all year round. She looks great with long down jackets and parkas. It can also be placed under outer clothing if it is rather wide. A belted short jacket can bulge a little, so it is better to throw the bag over your shoulder.

Men's purse with a belt at the waist goes well with any casual wear - jeans, sweaters, T-shirts. In order for it to look appropriate, its color and texture of the material should overlap with any item of clothing, shoes or other accessories.

For a business suit, you can also find a suitable strict and laconic model. But only a belt bag with a flashy design and a lot of decor will fit into a bright image.
