I'm a big fan of backpacks - tiny, small, medium or large, depending on conditions and how much you'd like to carry.
I do see the benefits of a "male purse" or a pouch hanging on a belt around the waist. No offense to anyone wearing those, but I'd rather have a small backpack.
In the bush I can wear a waistpack, but those are a drag in urban settings. You have to take them off to sit down on a conventional chair.

I thank you for sharing. I've never heard of Tumi until now. My current leather bag is designed exactly like that $275 Tumi bag. My bag was $40 from Wilson's Leather Outlet in Gilroy, California, (408) 842-7488. I bought two (brown and black) for $80. I've been using the black bag everyday since Christmas, and it's only getting better with wear. Tumi's nylon bag for $195 is way too pricey for a small nylon bag. I'm a little confused. What else does it do besides be a small nylon bag?
