Our Highsnobiety Fall Style Guide is here to help you bring the heat as the weather cools down. From curated picks to trend forecasting, we have everything you need to season-proof your rotation.
There was a time not too long ago when wearing a "man bag" was considered such a garish fashion choice that laughing at Joey wearing one made up the entire plot for an episode of Friends. However, the universal appreciation of bags in menswear that has since taken place makes that dark time nothing more than a distant memory.
Now, leaving the house without some form of luggage, whether that be a tote, backpack, or crossbody bag, feels like something is missing.
Of all the options, crossbody bags are our favorite bags at the moment. Saving yourself some pocket space by investing in a crossbody bag is as much a practical choice as a stylistic one, stopping you from squeezing everything into your jeans and adding the finishing touch to a look. Pick the correct style, and you can elevate an outfit to a whole other level — especially for the upcoming fall season.
From expertly-crafted designs by Kenzo to the side bags that have become a streetwear essential, we've rounded up the best men's crossbody bags. Whether it be for travel, going to a festival, or just an everyday look, these accessories are about to make carrying your possessions a heck of a lot easier — and more stylish.
