Ok, so when we decided to review this smart and slick Mulberry Ted Bag for men, there was a little confusion in the BagServant office. The Mulberry Ted bag is undeniably similar to the newer version, the Mulberry Brynmore handbags for both men and women. AND the Mulberry Brynmore is somewhat cheaper than the Mulberry Ted! So, BagServant investigates and reviews the Ted to see if it’s worth the extra buck!
Handbag Experience
A classic over-sized men’s messenger bag, the Mulberry Ted is the sophisticated man’s must-have. However, the best bit about the bag is that it is incredibly versatile and be carried as either a briefcase, messenger, shoulder bag or backpack – something that can’t be said for the Mulberry Brynmore.
The bag displays the traditional Mulberry symbol, a stand-out triple Postman’s Lock closure and has an adjustable canvas strap so the bag can be carried across the body or on the shoulder – making it perfect for any height. The bag also offers extra belt straps for added security.
Where and when is it perfect for?
Ultimately, this is the perfect office bag. It can easily fit a laptop and all those other work essentials. However, it is also spacious enough to be used as a travel bag if you are a bit of a Jetsetter! The great thing about this bag is that for a man, this may be the only bag you’ll ever need! Take it to work, to dinner, on holiday or even to the gym if you are a Gym Junkie, it really is that versatile.
Interior
As mentioned, inside there really is plenty of room for those office necessities, including a laptop. There is also a large zip compartment, slip pocket and pen holder – so your keys needn’t end up at the bottom of the bag! Additionally, the bag is lined with logo lining giving it an extra special finished look.
Material
Finished in soft brushed leather, the Mulberry Ted is the fashionable man’s version of the original briefcase. A Mulberry favourite, this type of leather is tanned using a natural vegetable tanning technique. This means, the soft leather retains the individual grain pattern of the skin, making each product unique.
Best Colour to Pick
The Mulberry Ted is available in Natural Oak Leather, Black or Chocolate colour. We chose the black as black will never go out of fashion, looks smart and clean and goes with absolutely everything!
BagServant’s Thoughts
Guys, if you want to get ahead of your game, dress to impress with the Mulberry Ted. The bag is quite expensive at £795 but remember you are paying for quality. Mulberry bags are renowned for their exquisite quality and durability and this bag will be a life long investment. And in conclusion, we definitely feel it ranks above the Mulberry Brynmore and is worth paying a little bit more for the extra quality, versatility and back pack feature!
