Maxi Mabel on Guys?

Tara, that's the Bailey. I saw one in Bicester on Thursday in Pebble and it was H-U-G-E... and I normally love oversized bags 
Regarding, the maxi, I just think that because the bag is called a "Mabel" it would put any guy off carrying it. However, that doesn't stop Mulberry trying to market it to them. I phoned Selfridges yesterday to see if they are carrying the aqua Mabel - they're not
but they told me that they had the aqua Maxi Mabel "upstairs in menswear" 
I'm dying to know how many aqua bags they sell to men

Would a man seriously carry an aqua mabel though?! :s Its quite a girly colour I would have thought....
I can't think of a single man that I know who would carry an aqua maxi Mabel, even if they were given it for free

Tell me about it!
A while back I bought a large brown canvas messenger bag from the mens section in accessorize. Bought it for files mainly at the time, however I never used it for that purpose. I suggested to the OH that perhaps we could use it on trips, and take it in turns to carry it, as it was a bag that we could both use.... the look of horror on his face
He was adamant that there was no way he was going to be carrying a ladies bag (because it was a messenger style from accessorize) - no amount of persuading had any effect, so it went to the charity shop in the end 
Darn, Tara, that's what I was going to get DH for Father's Day!! Off to rethink!!!
Can you imagine my DH from Texas who wears Wrangler jeans and button down shirts carrying a white "Man" bag???
Send me straight to the funny farm!
Great - do post a pic when you have it!
In the Hermes forum, there are a couple of guys with large Birkins, looking fab. And the Mabel is even more neutral than that, so that should be perfect. The large Bayswater might also be a choice for he right guy. I do wish more stylish men carried bags over here (instead of depositing their stuff in their pockets or in our bags). In Paris, you see that quite a lot.
