When you follow fashion, it can seem unthinkable that everyone doesn't want Wholesale Replica Bag It bag, but that seems to be exactly the case. Forbes just reported that handbag sales are down 8% from 2016, which is quite a lot considering what a huge sector of the retail business handbags are. But people have to have somewhere to put their stuff, so what are they buying instead?

This shift shows that these bag styles made of technical materials coincide with the popularity of athleisure clothing, and people are starting to use their functional outdoor gear on a daily basis.
