Saw this article on SB about man-bags, murses and dopp kits in the NBA, with a few paragraphs about Beard: Arguably one of the most fashionable men in the NBA is James Harden, who has crafted all manner of garments and apparel through his relationship with Adidas. The Beard is one of the most prominent devotees to the tiny bag in the league today, and he is meticulous in planning his pre- and postgame outfits. It all starts with one item worthy of the spotlight, which then dictates how the rest of the ensemble rounds out. "[I get] a fire piece, I gotta build around it," he says. For Harden, the fit usually starts with his sneakers, generally a pair of his own brand. The toiletry bag has to be coordinated and appropriate to match the rest of his look. "You can put anything in there," Harden says. "Guys put wallets, cell phones, toiletries, anything. Jewelry." Even though it seems that the dopp kit has exploded onto the NBA scene this year, Harden says it's been going on forever. It's only recently that eagle-eyed fashion observers and basketball heads have begun to notice. "People just picked it up, find different toiletries, little bags," he says.
Why is Harden wasting time in meticulously planning his pre- and postgame outfits instead of being at the gym doing cardio or practicing 3 point shots? - Clutchfans
Harden is rich and famous so he can rock this...the average person is getting laughed at walking into the building with a man-bag
How old is he again? 27, 28? He's still closer mentally to a teenager than a grown man so this kind of dress and trendy metro stuff is what he's likely to be into. As he gets older, that will change and he will look back and say, "Man I thought that was cool! WTF!?? LOL"
most of them look awful and ridiculous. As long as it doesn't become a new fashion and I don't see all men walking around with luis vitton purses, I don't care.
This is just a writer reaching for a story, and harden’s quote confirms it. He is just way too nice to not laugh at him like Russ would.This is just a freakin toilettry bag from LV, those of you hating on him have one too , although it’s likely black and plastic from target. Anyone who is not a broke barbarian has one for travel to keep their shave kit etc in. Gerald green has the same LV Damier in blue. This is not made of solid gold and LV makes things that can last decades.
