Guy Gifts – Leather Holdall Duffle Bag
Filed Under Shopping | Leave a Comment
We have a great guy gift idea for you – a nice leather holdall bag, something your husband, father, or guy buddy will really appreciate. Many men would not splurge on one for themselves, but would be pretty excited to receive on as a gift. Leather holdalls are especially great for guys who travel or do a lot of weekend trips where you just need a carryall to haul a lot of stuff.
Let’s be a bit more clear on the term leather holdall. Here we are referring to a leather duffle bag, the most popular type of leather holdall for men. Most guys do not mind the extra weight but really enjoy the durability and ruggedness that a leather duffel provides. These holdalls can take a beating and still hold up very well over time.
We recommend that you stick with live shopping as opposed to online. The main reason is in case your guy recipient wants to exchange the bag for a different style or even color – it’s much easier and convenient at a store. When browsing, check out the bag’s quality by inspecting the stitching and seams. Aim for a higher quality leather like top grain or full grain. Avoid “genuine leather” made bags where possible. Style wise, we like a more classic look that will “stay in style” over a long period, since this type of bag can last many years.
Now it is important to note these leather holdall duffle bags do not come cheap. You typically will not find these at discounters either – usually at luggage shops or higher end department stores. Expect to pay over $200 for a nice one.
That said, if you have the budget we think a leather hold makes an excellent guy gift. With the proper maintenance, a leather bag can last quite a long time. Take our advice and consider gifting a nice leather holdall bag!
