When we mums get diaper bags, we care not only about how functional it is, but how good it looks – because we’ll be carrying it around all the time! What if I told you that dads are the same?
Older generations of Singaporean dads seem cin cai about fashion, and would probably carry around a pink bag with floral prints without much thought, but the newer generation of dads are paying attention to their fashion and actually try to accessorise accordingly!
Bags with floral prints that come in shades of pastel might match with a similar, lighter hued outfit, but not all dads can pull off that look (or even want to).
We’ve spoken to some daddies in the office and have asked them what they’re looking for in a daddy diaper bag, and here’s what we’ve got: sleek, robust, simple, manly, lots of storage space, fine with either a backpack or a sling-bag, easy-access, and muted or darker colours.
Taking all those points into consideration (and those are a lot!), we’ve put together a list of daddy diaper bags for mummies or friends of daddies to get him as a Father’s Day gift!
Sling / Messenger Diaper Bags
Diaper Dude, MENS MESSENGER | BLACK
Functional and huge, this messenger bag is designed for dads who want to carry something that looks stylish, sporty, and cool. It comes with a whole bunch of useful features that dad’ll love:
One thing that dads will be thankful for are the wider than usual shoulder straps that come with padding – they usually have broader shoulders than us ladies, so a wider strap won’t dig into them and make them feel uncomfortable. The zippers that come on this bag are equally robust and can definitely take rougher handling.
The three pouches at the front let dad easily grab items that are put inside – wet wipes, cream, snacks (for both baby and dad) – without the need to remove the bag from their shoulders.

Backpack Diaper Bags
Backpacks might not be as stylish as a sling bag, but the practicality of them are unmatched. One thing that dads have told us is that backpacks are actually a lot better for their backs – as they give proper support and weight distribution.

We’re giving some love to a Singaporean brand, 13Thirteen (pronounced ‘thirteen thirteen’)!
