If you have to go into the office, you might as well do it in style (Picture: Credited below)

If you worked from home or were furloughed during lockdown, you may remember the unease at dressing as things returned to ‘normal’.

While some people managed to explore their style identities without the restraints of workplace dresscodes, others struggled with losing theirs; after all, if a man dresses well and no one sees it, did he really dress well at all?

Thankfully all it takes to revive your status as the best-dressed guy in the office is a few choice staples that can be worn in a variety of ways.

A work bag is a good place to start. No truly put-together man carries his essentials in a sports backpack they’ve had since school, and if you’re carrying expensive kit it makes sense to store it somewhere safer than a canvas tote.

There are loads of great options on the market right now that marry style with substance, and some even have futuristic features like in-built charging ports.

You can either go for an old-school satchel or something more ergonomic, but pay attention to the quality of the fabric and whether its finer details fit to your needs; these can be the things that mark out a forever bag from one you avoid using after the first week.

Once you’ve figured out your signature everyday look, these practical yet stylish work bags for men can give you a little extra inspiration.
