cool-looking sports bags

  hi all,
  
  i'm looking for a sports bag that looks like the following:
  
  however, i'm looking for one :
  
  1) the carrying handles are short
  2) carrying handles is more important; no sling is 100% ok
  3) preferably, it should be black and as plain as possible
  4) if possible, it should look cool
  5) must be affordable : no brand is ok, but must look sleek
  6) shouldn't be extremely big(i just want to put a water bottle, 3 - 4 books(total 900 pages or so) and a small umbrella
  
  anyone knows where i can find such bags? or a place in SG where they sell a lot of such bags to choose from?
  i don't want to spend more than S$40 for such bags, so don't direct me to those classy places.
  
  thanks!
  nikar.

  Hi Nikar,
  
  If you looking for cheap sport bag, you can try Queensway.
  
  A side note: Point 3, 5 & 6 are hard to fullfill.
  
  Black is hard to find, prices should range above $40 and usually sport bag are either too big or too small. The right size with the right shape is rare now. Used to have when Nike first introduced the sport bag few years back.

  How old are you..? Perhaps you could be interested in SAF's NEW 'Ali Baba bag'...? (If you want something quite big and like what you've posted)... Alternatively, you can try out Bugis Village... But do note that if they come cheaper, you probably can't expect their quality to be as good...?
