Mutt Jones would probably buy that, yes-but that's because he wears leather jackets and drives a motorcycle already.
Anyway...why are you so persistent about it not being labeled a murse? Are you insecure? XD
Got a tip for us?

LOLOLOL!!! I just don't like the word MURSE. or even MAN PURSE. Would you call a netbook bag a murse as well. I mean its got a strap and you can wear it across your body. It's got manly items like Ipad (LOL).
sachel is pretty funny......
Look. I have no dog in this hunt but let's be honest, it's a murse. Secondly, Indiana Jones wouldn't be caught dead with one.
A netbook bag can be a murse. Not all netbook bags are murses.
It's not the fact that it's a small big you can wear across your body. Its not like messenger bags or laptop bags are considered murses. It's just...the case looks very "fine crafted". Delicate. Effeminate. Murse.
lol, this thread is becoming sort of on topic but yet so off some how. Some people will like it and some will not, let's not force our own ideal upon others that don't.
I find it strange that with thin and elegant design of iPad, anyone would categorize the device a "manly device". I'm a guy myself, but I see nothing wrong with iPad being used by ladies. Which bringing this so called "murse" to the table, I don't see anything wrong with women carrying leather case shoulder strap bag for iPad either. Come to think of it, it's actually pretty cool.
When you guys called it a man purse, I actually thought of how Joey from sitcom FRIENDS reacted when he carried one, lol. I personally love the temple bag design for iPad, but I do understand people that don't like the bag, brought up some valid points. Just shows the bag is not for you that's all.

I never called the iPad manly, nor do I know of anyone who has. The iPad isn't really sex-specific. It has a pretty neutral design. I don't have a problem with ladies using small strap bags. And I don't have a problem with men carrying them-but let's call things what they are. it's kinda pursey looking.
Here's one that doesn't...

There ya go! =D
See, was that so hard? Now you can go and buy it and wear it or whatever you want- we don't care. just as long as you know that it is a murse, and not some sort of "rugged action pack" or whatever =P

Hey when did you purchase one? I would like to buy one and have it by next thursday so I can try it for travel.
Indiana Jones Style - Rugged, not designed for looks, used for carrying ancient or survival type objects, used by a rugged man in tough terrain
iPad Murse - Fine crafted, aesthetic design is focus, used for carrying fancy electronic equipment, used by those who want to have that "indiana jones" feel when they go the coffee shop.
I would not be caught dead in one of these, but all kidding aside if this is your cup of tea, then it does appear to be a nice product. I don't object to paying a premium for high quality products.

My post was not directed at you personally, I apologize if you feel that way, it was a poke at the joke remark by Dammit Cubs, and I don't think Cubs was offended by it because I certainly wasn't trying to.
Back to topic, did anyone ordered black on black? So far I've only seen people bought either all leather and canvas.

I root for the Chicago CUBS....A small baby bear is my team logo. I can take alot of hits. LOL.
Back to topic, What I do like about this case is that the STRAPS come off. And is just becomes a case.
If the straps come off, does it still make it a MURSE.
So far I know that only 2 people have bout the item. I am a bit torn between the canvas bag versus all leather. Apparently this the description of the leather bag from the designer:
Only to a complete homophobic with no taste... This is a very classy shoulder case, straight out of an Indiana Jones movie! I am seriously considering it.
Homophobia has nothing to do with the fact that it's a "man purse". We're not ridiculing him for wanting one, we're just saying it's not "indiana jones" by a long shot. It's dainty and classy and fine. It's a purse...for a man.
Don't be so quick the pull the "FAG HATER!" card.
I disagree that Indiana jones's bag wouldn't be called a murse in these times. And leads me to believe, if he owned an iPad, he would buy this murse.
That's because Indy's bag wasn't a murse! it was a "bag to carry my treasures in while i get all muddy and dirty and save the world" bag.
I thought we went ver this!
Okay. He can still carry treasures in a leather murse. The bag like the one in the Indiana jones picture in these times can be worth easily $200. the temple Ipad case is $140. People can save the world in style too!!
Edit: I read this when I googled "Indiana jones, murse"
Pretty informative and funny:
