What’s not to like about this Mark Nason Dragon Embossed Leather Messenger? If you consider the $850 price tag a negative factor I guess that would be it. Seriously though, the embossed dragon print is one kick-ass detail. For lack of a better word. Leather is always a plus. Multiple inside pockets to fit all your daily gadgets count as major points as well.
Man Bags have never looked this sexy! *whistles*

its terrible. What happened to Mark Nason? His stuff used to be so cool. It had details of cool but was subtle in its approach. Now? It’s like all the other crap out there…like Affliction and huge crosses with dragon blah blah blah. Its disgusting. Bring back the simple stuff Mark Nason. This looks like somebody threw up the UFC all over a bag. I thought Mark Nason was high fashion…not trash.
I am in total agreement. Take off the dragon, stamp the nason emblem on it, add some contrasting stitch work here and there and you’ve got a winner. Would be great if they would take down the costs of these messenger bags. The bags look great, but the price is ridiculous. Maybe drop the cost to $300. This would make them more marketable and still sold at a competitive price.
I’m not a samurai. I don’t need dragons on my clothes or accessories. I don’t need dragons anywhere, except maybe hidden in the text of the books on my bookshelf. I’m so sick of this dragon thing. In fact, graphic tees as a whole right now are all in the toilet as far as I’m concerned. But this whole dragon thing reeks of “outlet store” to me. Perhaps, “Swap Meet-chic?”
I don’t get you, Dexie. You’ve featured some beautiful looks from Zac Efron, Brad Pitt and Jeremy Piven. Great, classic picks like argyle sweater vests, to contrast placket cardigans… but then, you contradict yourself and feature this Jersey stuff: That Roar Fearless Blazer? D&G dog tags? I don’t know, I know I’m a classicist when it comes to men’s fashion, but I think I have an idea why that Sean John Tattoo Jacket is on sale: No one wants to wear it.
Still going to read every post though.
Hi Tom, I didn’t know only Samurai’s wear things with dragons. *scratches head*
As for what I write her in She Knows Best, it’s called VARIETY. I try cater to ALL my reader’s fashion sense. You’re not the only one who reads my blog so I can’t just feature things that YOU like. Besides I like a lot of stuff, heh.
Thanks for sticking around though
I think this is way cool. I just wouldn’t have an application for it in my daily life. But you still have to appreciate the artistry in it.
I love this bag. It’s too expensive for me though…
