icic, I found it too heavy... just like my b 40 and 35. But i would like to go for a 31 maybe ?

As a guy, I would go for the Steve or Sac Ecritoire or Barda instead. Being 6 ft a larger bag just proportionally fits better.

The Jyspiere is an interesting bag to guys...it's like the Steve and Barda are great but far too subtle so people resort to the Jyspiere to have a messenger bag and show off the Hermes design. However I fell overall the bag is too feminine (yes I know Jean Paul Gautier wore it once....but he's a fashion designer and flamboyantly gay so it works with him but it might not work with your character). If you really want to stick with the Jyspiere, go bigger and darker color.

I actually think Jypsiere is a pretty neutral bag - and really if one is secure enough with ones identity - one can carry whatever one wants - the man makes the bag/cloth and not the other way around IMHO ;)
Use it, enjoy it and love it.

I agree that if you are comfortable carrying it, do whatever you want. More options this way!

However as a designer there are some things about the Jyspiere that makes it lean towards feminine though. Ex. A few things I learned about bag design is (handle drop is very important like the HAC has a very short handle drop so it's marketed towards men, while Birkin to women, strap-locking mechanism hardware design such as those found on the Jyspiere, Kelly, and Evelyne are usually designed with the female market in mind).
