Any men (willing to admit they) carry a murse?

[Wailer]

I lean towards being a minimalist, but I find I'm usually carrying:

- a thin bi-fold wallet that I pare down to about 4 or 5 cards, driver's license and some cash,
- a phone (ultra small palm pixi); and,
- keys, which I try to limit to car key/FOB and house key.

I tend to wear shorts, sweats or occasionally khakis. With pants or board shorts, I can put all 3 in my pocket. But with sweats or athletic shorts, I either don't have pockets or the pockets are tiny and I wind up carrying my wallet and phone in one hand. This hasn't been a problem with the tiny palm pixi.

I'll be "upgrading" to a droid size phone which is much thicker so I'm thinking I may need to start looking for a murse or something else; I can't imagine putting a droid in any pocket ('yes, I'm happy to see you!' ). I don't think I can do the fanny pack thing but maybe there's a satchel or bag that won't make kids point and laugh. I already use a palm pixi, which is arguably the "girliest" phone out there, so I'm comfortable with some level of woman-like appearance.

I'm really worried about carrying a bag than can easily be left behind but I see no other solution. What do all you men with case-covered iphones and headsets, tri-fold wallets with every loyalty card, and janitor-like key rings do? How do you carry all your "junk"? Do your pockets bulge? Belt-clipped phone? Fanny pack or murse?

Wallet in front pocket, lighter in coin pocket, kershaw knife clipped inside front pocket. IPhone and BT headset in other pocket. I've trained myself to carry my car keys in my back pocket.

this time of year i use the pockets of a fleece vest or windbreaker. warmer months i do use a fanny pack.

not all women carry purses.

I frikkin' hate any accessories whatsoever.
I've got my keys split into two and in the wintertime one set stays in a jacket pocket, but the summertime is a problem.

I have canvas Messenger Bag does that count? I can put my iPad
in it along with whatever else I think I might need. I don't carry it much
but I comes in handy.

When I carry my laptop in a briefcase, it makes it very easy to put everything in there. I like empty pockets. The problem is I don't take my computer out often.

For those who put stuff in pockets, I can't imagine if you throw cigarettes, a lighter and a pocket knife/bottle opener into this.

I have a pair of cargo shorts that has huge, deep pockets for stuff. The problem is when you walk with stuff in the pockets, the stuff really swings and pulls my shorts down. Forget even a brisk walk.

My work backpack is referred to as my 'man purse'. It's manly. Weighs damn near 25 lbs when full of whatnot and gizmos and gadgets and papers and half liter of water and Contigo coffee cup.

Nope, don't need one, thank you very much!

I have my iPhone . . . all I need to carry.

It's not a man purse, it's a satchel. Indiana Jones carries one.

I started carrying a knapsack in college in the mid 70s & was never able to give up the habit. Now days it's a low-key black LLBean sling that I've had since 1999.
