Dads have spoken and designers have listened, Make a diaper bag for dads! As a dad myself I’m quite happy to see that dads everywhere now have the choice to carry a messenger style diaper bag they can be proud of.

I can remember one day I took the kids to an amusement park for the day. Excited, we got dressed and hopped in the car. Once we got there I popped out the double stroller and were ready to roll, so I thought. Left sitting in the trunk was a bright green, floral, Shanghai Tang silk diaper bag! For those dads that don’t know, as I didn’t, Shanghai Tang is a very fashionable Asian style bag. It looks absolutely fabulous when carried by my wife but now I had to tote it along. Although it seems OK to be carrying a girly bag around as long as your wife is there, doing it alone makes me quite self conscious.

Finally, messenger bags for men for the modern day father have arrived! So how are these bags any different than using a duffel bag? They have the style and design of the trendy men’s messenger bag with all the compartments you need in a diaper bag.

Change em: I guess if there was one essential item a dad bag needs to have its a changing pad. I think the best ones are easily cleanable with a baby wipe and fold right out of the bag. Best are the pads that are connected to the bag so that it essentially rolls out and back in with ease.

Baby Bottles have a home: If you’ve ever had a baby bottle leak in you’re bag you’ll appreciate this one. Most baby bottles after being throwing in the dishwasher several times need to be held upright in order to keep them from leaking. Part of this is due to the fact that bottles these days are designed to let air in so that the infant doesn’t need to open their mouth and stop drinking to release the suction. Either way, having a vertical compartment for baby bottles is key.

On the Stroller: Its also very important that the messenger bag can hang off the stroller without tipping it over when there’s no child in the car. Dad messenger bags are designed to fit strollers appropriately without tipping the stroller over.

Spot For Mom: OK, mom we understand. There are also pockets for mom if she ever gets stuck taking our bag. Now she knows how we feel - maybe.

Spill Proof: Dad messenger bags are typically double fitted with Velcro and a buckle of some kind. This keeps the bag closed if you ever have to just grab it and run as your little one runs out the door.

Now there’s a trendy yet functional messenger bag for men that also is a diaper bag. Watch out moms, dads are ready!
