- arnaudvalette 3y agoThen the good move is to reduce the size of men pockets and sell purses to men.
- askonomm 3y agoOh man, would love to hear the marketing strategy that would be able to convince men to buy purses.
- AlecSchueler 3y agoNever heard of the man bag?
- askonomm 3y agoDo you mean the man purse? The thing that's exclusively for middle-aged dads who care about nothing other than practicality?
- dagw 3y agoI've noticed a lot of 'fashionable' young men carrying those small bags that hang diagonally across the chest or back. Seems like the man purses are having a moment.
- shrikant 3y ago> middle-aged dads who care about nothing other than practicality Damn dude, I didn't ask to catch strays like this :(
- AlecSchueler 3y agoAre middle aged dads not men?
- jdlan 3y agoIt's European!!!
- askonomm 3y agoHaha spot on! Being a European myself, I always find it funny what Americans think European is. Apparently we're all nudists or wearing Borat bikinis, everybody is apparently into swinger lifestyle, and we're all dressed like we came out of a French fashion magazine.

- hef19898 3y agoUnless we drink beer from a stein (which is called a Masskrug!!!) and wear lederhosen that is!
- arnaudvalette 3y agoJust give cardboard purses to persons from highly cultural cities through cultural events, your enemy is the so called 'tote bag'. cardboard purses should be disposable, solid enough to transport something (e.g. some book the person bought) from a museum to the person house, but fragile enough to last only one week or so, IMPORTANT : the purse should be "cool" enough so people will prefer this to let's say the usual paper bag you get at the grocery store. Then, when you have taken the place of the tote bag, you can build the start-up that will manufacture and sell real purses, which will prove useful due to the downsizing of the men pockets, to transport phones, books, and coin purses.
- almatabata 3y agoThis was extremely common with a certain category of youngsters when i was in school. The guys would all have these kind of sports outfit and all have a small bag like this: https://www.hexagona.com/fr/sacs-bandouliere-sacs-banane/553-3300-sacoche-784636.html https://www.hexagona.com/fr/sacs-bandouliere-sacs-banane/553...
- lesuorac 3y agoAre you claiming everybody that creates pants also has a purse line? Otherwise, the company(ies) that don't create purses don't make more money selling purses + pants. Of course, there could be a new company that makers neither pants nor purses that gets into the pants making business. --- It's aesthetics, pockets don't make a woman's figure slimming so they don't sell as well.
- 7thaccount 3y agoThat doesn't track unless it's all part of a monopoly. Absent monopoly, you'd likely already have a company doing this and making money. I can't not believe that the some companies didn't do market research on this. I've heard many women complain over the years about the small pockets, but my assumption (possibly very wrong) is that they might not buy a pair of jeans if giving them full sized pockets made them significantly less fashionable (i.e. they'd get less utility out of them).
- Jensson 3y ago> I've heard many women complain over the years about the small pockets Talk to those women and they will admit there are many clothes for women with pockets, just that those doesn't look as good so they are searching hard for good looking clothes with pockets which basically doesn't exist. They rather buy clothes they like without pockets than clothes they find ugly with pockets.
- 7thaccount 3y agoThat's what I said (or at least tried to say), just less intelligently lol.
