I've been looking around metrotown for a murse but couldn't find one. I want something brand name but not expensive stuff like LV and not something that looks like LV with the pattern, except those black satchel ones and the pouch looks pretty nice.
Or even a belt bag, something I can use to carry my keys and stuff. Something masculine.

There are murse that doesn't even look like a purse, it's more like a pouch you strap around your chest, like a chest pouch.
The ones with LV patterns and hangs over your shoulder are feminine. I'm looking for ones that people bring to when they travel to hold their wallet, keys, phone, smokes, sunglass/eyeglass with the case.

I guess we shouldn't wear northface and kappa because they're nammerism. What about affliction and ed hardy? They are for gangsters right? Versace and gucci are for homos and people with crude cut and mohawk are gangsters wannabe /endsarcasm. Stop labeling specific things to specific cultures and style, nobody is unique and nobody is different. Fashion trend are past down from one to another, if you label them because one race of people who wears/uses them, then which one did you adapt your style from?

I actually asked about them in my original post, but I call them belt bags. I've seen some people wear them and they look pretty cool. Not the flashy ones with neon yellow and green of course.

its funny you say that. such a naive egalitarian aspect you hold. i wear clothes which look good, not items that are plastered with foils, skulls, and such. and i will label people, just like you unknowingly do so yourself. it's like having a tattoo. sure, not everyone who has a tattoo is thugged out or gangster wanna-be or having a stint of rebelism, just like not everyone who wears ed hardy or a gucci murse is a complete fag (though most are). but when you see someone with a tattoo, first thing that comes to mind are the negative connotations. whose gonna see someone with a full arm sleeve, dragons and phoenixes wrapped around eachother, and think "oh wow, this guy must be a really nice, successful, charismatic, proper gentlemen". Same thing goes for Ed Hardy and murses. People see them and right away, they paint you in a stereotypical light regardless of whether you truly belong in the group you've been labeled into.

Also, a lot of Europeans are still rocking the murse, case in point...

The first bolded line: So your clothes look good, but the ones with skulls and tin foil does not? That's clearly your own opinion and your own fashion trend, you cannot speak for everyone.
The second bolded line: You judge people by their looks, and believe me, I know people who have sleeves of tattoo that are gentlemen who have a conscience when it comes down to harming another. And no, the first thing that comes to my mind is, he is just another person who follows the tattoo trend.
The third bolded line: You are as stereotypical as these people, and you speak for part of our society, not everyone.
You clearly know people label and stereotype, yet you still hop on the bandwagon and do the labeling yourself. I think deep down inside, subconsciously, you refuse to wear a murse or clothing with skulls and tin foil because you are afraid to be labeled yourself. But me, I accept fashion for what it is, not because some race/culture/nammer-gangster-wannabe wears them.
To summarize all of this, you are prejudice and stereotypical yet I am open-minded.
On a side note, look up on the word "egalitarian" before using it in an argument about fashion. You try to make your post sound educated and smart, but your grammar and punctuations are horrible.

i used egalitarian to describe your quoted words of "nobody is different, nobody is unique", guess I'm too damn familiar with the word's meaning after all. yup, i do label and stereotype. i live by a rule of probability. for every tatted up person who has proper etiquette, he has 9 counterpart thugs. I used to be just like you, thinking how open minded and politically inclined i was. Then I took a few psychology classes, and realized how much of a judgemental bastard I and everyone around me happened to be.
hahahahha, trust me, my opinion speaks for the general public when it comes down to foils and skulls. from your relativist POV, everyone, every country or culture, has an inalienable right to dictate it's own set of morals and customs, and in this case it's fashion standard. but think about it, if everyone is right, on what grounds are we able to argue about something being wrong? sure it's my opinion, but there's good opinions and bad opinions. i speak for the well educated public, (which i assume you will disagree with due to my "inaccurate use of grammar" lol) not the punks.
yes, i am afraid to be labeled myself. but aren't you? would you ever want to be considered a rapist, a murderer, a child molestor? Would you ever dress like a girl? If not, then don't lecture me about labeling because you're just as much in the same boat.

Man just stfu and tell the man where to get a fucking murse.
What's the fucking point in arguing about people's opinions on fucking murses. You're free to voice your opinion but don't force that shit on people who don't think the same way.

lol haha because i know how judgemental society can be from personal experiences, so i don't want him to buy something and regret it in the future.
wearing a murse is ok. as long as it doesnt show any patterns and is discrete.
there are guy jeans like Dior out there that have tight ass pockets, so u cannot put anything in there, and these are not those homo jeans. I usually carry everything in my hands when i wear these though, but many people use some kind of bag to carry them. Or when people ride on bikes, they all carry murses so murese doesnt necarriscily look homo. Or in asia and europe, where 90% people don't have the luxury to drive.

At least this time, it's well said. My definition of "nobody is unique, nobody is different" has nothing to do with equality. I was speaking for fashion in general.
Your opinion speaks for the general public who are just like you, and trust me, there aren't very many. You hang around them, you meet them, but they are not the majority of the public.
We are not arguing about anything being right or wrong here, just good or bad.
Rapist, murder, child molestor, yes I would be afraid to be labeled as those, but we're talking about fashion here. Those labeling goes beyond the line, it impacts your life in getting a job and being in a community. It has nothing relevant to wearing a murse. But atleast you admit that you are afraid of being labeled. I really wish you would set your mind free and try on new things, that you wouldn't even know it's good, until you actually approach it.
On a side note, what defines as dressing like a girl? Skirts? Eyeliner? Make up? There are men from different culture that are already in those trend. Irish wear skirts. And if I ever visit Ireland, I would probably do so just for fun.
Honestly, there is nothing to be ashamed about just because people laugh at it. You need to loosen up and appreciate things instead of hating.
Anyways, I'm done. Thanks to those who actually took the time to give me information on where to get a murse. I will check out roots when I have the time off work.
i never had the urge to carry more than my phone, keys and wallet, which all easily fit in my jeans or hoody/jacket pockets.
when i used to smoke i had to carry a lighter and cigarettes, but still managed without a murse.
just wondering, what kind of stuff would you put in your murse anyway? serious question.

When I'm out and about, I don't carry something quite as small as a murse, but I do carry a smaller messenger bag.
If you happen to wear a blazer/sport coat, carrying these items will break the "form" of the jacket, particularly if the coat is well-tailored. It's impossible to put keys, wallet, and phone all in your jeans, especially with how they're making jeans these days.
Keys: 2 sets (one for the car and one for your condo)
Phone: Smartphones are pretty big these days
Wallet
MP3 player/IPOD
Point-and-shoot camera
Water and/or energy bar or snack
Etc.
how is it impossible to carry wallet keys and phone in your jeans when i do it everyday?
and so does 95% of the male population.

And when was the last time you bought a pair of jeans? Your typical pair of bootcuts from Diesel, Levis, 7, R&R, Joes, etc. all fit fairly close to your thighs these days. And if have any muscle definition in your thighs, it's next to impossible to carry two sets of keys and a phone without hindering your mobility.
I don't consider myself a fashionista, but carrying a bag of some sort is not succumbing to fashion - it's simply practical for any guy that doesn't want to wear a heavy jacket and/or cargo shorts to carry life's essentials.

Yea, I can put my keys, wallet, phone, smokes, lighter, change, sunglasses, even an extra t-shirt and shorts in my jeans pocket.
The real question is, is it comfortable? Is it convenient? Have you ever sat at a restaurant with all of these things in your pocket? Try walking around the mall or downtown robson with all these in your pocket. You have to go through you phone to get to your smokes. Or try to find which pocket that lighter is in. In the winter time it's okay without a murse, because you have your jacket and pants. But summer time, I usually run around in my tank and shorts with 2 pockets. Night time, a t shirt and jeans. The comfort of having a phone, smokes, wallet, keys, and lighter in my pocket started become irritating, even if my wallet is in my back pocket, sitting down sometimes feel uncomfortable.
Why torture yourself and go through a day of hassle because you refuse to wear a murse due to your big man pride?

second, i only carry one set of keys, a wallet and a phone. my wallet is slim, my phone is slim, i only carry 3 keys and a car remote on one loop.
just trying to understand how its impossible to do that without a purse, when 90% of the male population doesnt complain about it.

I use one of these. A tactical Maxpedition Jumbo versipack. Nothing gay to this if you ask me. Too bad it's illegal here in Canada, but this bag will let you conceal carry a handgun if you wanted to.
http://images1.opticsplanet.com/640-640/opplanet-maxpedition-fatboy-versipack-pack-black-0403b.jpg
I use this bag as my EDC (every day carry) bag. Along with my wallet I keep in my back pocket, I also carry my set of keys, cellphone, flashlight, muti-tool, and pocket knife everyday.
Depending on the day I will also carry with me my digital camera, ipod, sunglasses, etc.
Everybody has different needs. There will be days where you need to carry more than just your wallet, cellphone, and keys. And for those days, it will probably be more comfortable carrying a little bag with you. Yes some of my friends tease me for carrying a bag with me, but the type of work I do makes it crucial for me to carry my EDC items at all times. And they tend to shut up when my pocket knife or multi tool saves their day from whatever problem that needs something cut, fixed, etc.
I don't know. Just my 2 cents.

The problem is not that you can't fit your keys, phone, sunglasses, clothes, etc. in the pockets of your jeans.
It's quite uncomfortable having your key rub against your leg, and your pockets will be bulgy as hell. It's also VERY easy to drop things on the floor when you're searching for spare change. Digging through things in the pocket to find something it just annoying, and most of us can attest to this.
I'm not saying that we should all get skinny jeans and buy Gucci murses; it's just that the reason for getting a murse is sometimes a practical one. It's not always an aesthetic issue "Oh look at me I'm so ballin". The welcome, or unwelcome, stares from people can be a plus, or negative, depending on how you roll.
That being said, I would advise a messenger bag if you're feeling insecure, as they are more universally accepted than side pouches.

I don't wear murses but I wouldn't be opposed to it. I think we're just sick of people wearing the same things and associate murses with "nammers" and "thugs". I personally don't like that Ed Hardy stuff but only because I live in Vancouver and I see a lot of people wearing it for the sake of wearing it. I guess I can see the appeal in that stuff because of people's association with those clothes, people think it symbolises something but to most other people it just symbolises trying hard.
But as far as murses go, it's like saying "glasses are gay" or "hats are gay" it's not like it was something recently invented and it's really broad to say all of one thing is gay. I'm sure in 20 years the kids will call us gay for wearing peacoats or something else that's been around forever.

I'm not sure about you guys, but ever since I started working, I don't have the luxury of wearing jeans and a softshell anymore.
This means dress pants. ugh.
My current dress pants have little enough pocket room already.
I fits my tiny phone, and struggles with my card/bill wallet.
And I have already found myself storing my wallet in my backpack.
I'm upgrading to a big ass smartphone in a month or so, and since I'm married to my mp3 player, this pushes me squarely into murse category.
One of my friends has a belt bag, It looked ok on his casual clothes.
But I can't imagine walking around the office in a suit with a belt bag.
So serious help would be appreciated.
Also, no, a belt clipped cellphone is not a consideration.

And I have already found myself storing my wallet in my backpack.
I'm upgrading to a big ass smartphone in a month or so, and since I'm married to my mp3 player, this pushes me squarely into murse category.
One of my friends has a belt bag, It looked ok on his casual clothes.
But I can't imagine walking around the office in a suit with a belt bag.
So serious help would be appreciated.
Also, no, a belt clipped cellphone is not a consideration.
You can't imagine walking around the office with a belt bag but you can with a murse?
I'm sorry, but a murse does not belong in the office. Wear a leather/black messenger bag like a normal person. I don't know what you carry but I bring my BlackBerry, ipod, keys, and wallet to work and I don't have any need for a bag. For the rare time I take documents home from work, I'll bring a messenger bag since a murse would be useless anyways.

to tell you the truth, i can SEE how murse would be ideal but just cause a fanny pack is great, i won't rock out on it as a fashion statement.
Keys, Wallet, Phone is all i carry.
It's when you want to carry gum & sunglasses that it gets overload. I mean if you're wearing prada, oakleys, you can't really put them in your pocket at 9 PM at night....
if i am really tight for space, i use a condensed wallet which is just 2 credit card, debit + drivers and 200 dollars (usually when i'm in a suit)

If I was the only person around I still wouldn't wear one

so.. did you find a murse yet? haha
if you haven't yet then i think a side bag is perfectly fine too.. it won't get you labelled as 'hardcore' or whatever. i've got a diesel side bag and gotta say its very useful. also you can fit so much more stuff in there than a murse. yet another alternative!

Well, it seems like all the old guys wear their blackberries on belt holsters.
I can't really picture myself doing that, I think it looks totally lame.
What I'm wondering is, how do I walk around the office with my big 4" touchscreen?
My office clothes aren't the most comfy already, my pockets barely fit my old school motorola L7 SLVR as is. There is no way I can tote around my smartphone.
Same goes for my commute, I ride decked out in motorcycle gear and all, there is no room in my leather riding jacket for a smart phone.
So yeah, any more thought would be appreciated.

Diesel and Gstar has some murses, some look more like small messenger bags. You don't strap it on your chest, it's more like they hang near your waist.

I'm not really a judgmental person nor fashion police, but if you like the murse I suppose buy it. People have different taste, I would never wear one because everything that I need fit in my pockets. But the minute that murse/purse of yours is name branded I start to think otherwise. Again that's just me. I wear clothes with small logos or plain and simple. I don't need to rep I'm wearing this brand in order to impress. That's just brand advertisement. If you're buying that murse for convenience for yourself, that's cool. If it's for you and not to increase your self confidence, then go ahead and buy it with confidence.
However, when I was young and dumb I repped Ed hardy and everything that showed it's fucking name. I'll admit it was for my confidence. Now I can pick up chicks in sweats and hoodies so my perspective of clothes and fashion have changed.
Like Dave Chappelle said, mens priority in life is woman. Womens priority in life is material. Now, men buy nice cars because woman like nice cars. Not because men like nice cars. Woman love comfortable environment, so we buy the biggest house. However, if we could fuck any woman in a cardboard box, we wouldn't even buy a car or a house haha.
Woops, I got sidetracked off topic. The first paragraph is my 0.02

in the office, leave the phone on your desk? get more comfortable dress pants?
put your stuff in your bike's storage compartment. that's where my phone and wallet goes when i squid it out.

One of my Russian coworkers (the type you don't fuck with) carries something similar to this. I think it is a good compromise cause it looks like a small briefcase than a purse. Plus it is carry only, none of this over the shoulder satchel crap.

^Nothing wrong with carrying.
Whenever I see an Asian dude with a murse, I want to punch him in the face.
