Re: Ultimate Man Purse
Actually I am very impressed with this bag. I like most of the things he had but I would add a first-aid upgrade.
However I prefer the term "bug-out bag" or "emergency bag" over man purse. (that's just me)
Did he say what this bag was called? They have a lot of options at the website.

Re: Ultimate Man Purse
In all honesty I really like this bag,it's a nice size and looks heavy duty.

Check out the Maxpedition Fat Boy Versapack. It's a little bigger and will carry a pistol.

Mr. Bourne,
The very fact they call it a Man purse makes me wonder about the intelligence of the maker. I mean, why can't they call it a Man's Sack?
Best regards,

That's hilarious.
Funny story,born in LA in 63,lived most my life in the sticks of Southern Missouri then moved to Visalia California (76) and for the first time I heard the term "sack" while at a Jr High school in Visalia.
Us hillbillies called it a 'bag" they would call you a "sack" if you screwed-up or acted like a dumb-^ss.
I really got a kick outta that.
You Californian's have a funny way about'cha.
Sack! I cried I was laughing so hard.
Another funny bit- Visalia was more hillbilly than my home in Missouri.
All the guys had "rings" faded in their back pockets from Skoal and Copenhegan cans and wore huge Cowboy belt buckles.
They really liked me because I was the real deal,they loved my southern accent and the fact I wore cowboy boots.
Come to find out Tulare County and Visalia was big into rodeo and cattle.
Gotta admit I loved those days,Visalia is a neat little town.

Mr. Viking,
If it could hold a bowling ball, then it would be a BALL SACK!
Right Mr. JerrBeer?

Re: Ultimate Man Purse
This guy Craig Shipp who did the video apparently lives in Florida, I'm not american so I don't know if that's got anything to do with it?
Re: Ultimate Man Purse
We are just having a little fun. I liked the bag in the video enough that I would consider buying one and may just do so.Jason Bourne wrote:This guy Craig Shipp who did the video apparently lives in Florida, I'm not american so I don't know if that's got anything to do with it?
I only watched about 12 mins of the 18 min video so I don't know if he covered first aid kits,I would certainly want some kind of first aid even if it were very small and simple.
Southern Missouri has several poisonous snakes such as copperheads,cotton mouth which is downright nasty and at least 3 varieties of rattle snake.
We have lots of thorny trees and shrubs and they are rare but we also have cactus on some of the rocky hillsides,poison ivy and poison oak.
These sound like trivial things but without any kind of tweezers or first aid these things could turn into a big problem on a hike or camping trip.
Some of our thorns (us hillbillies call'em "stickers")
Not sure what this first one is but it is very common here and grows in single stalks or massive clusters and is a nightmare when you find yourself in the middle of a big patch of it.
After you get in it lots of the fine needles stick in your pant legs and drive you nuts,truly one of natures little miseries.
Some of the larger thorns can be dangerous, I have had the honey locust thorns go right through the side of a heavy leather boot like a nail. Very nasty stickers indeed.

Re: Ultimate Man Purse
The guy in the video didn't mention keeping a first aid kit in his bag, but it would be good to have in a bag of that kind.
