O’Neill Mina Shoulder Bag | Modern Affordable Soft Slouchy Gray Bag

Posted on: Jan 21

O'Neill steps away from the shore with the Mina shoulder bag, a purse for all seasons.

This is something different for O'Neill, who's best known for its surf-flavored accessories and beach bags. The soft, slouchy leatherette fabric is stylish in steel gray, and the tightly pleated curved panel and long tassels add real personality. They also help to hide the small vertical pockets on either side of the handbag. The pleats continue on the back of the bag, unlike so many purses in this price bracket.

You get a lot of bag for your dollar here. There's space inside for a chunky wallet, your cell phone, and a copy of the latest glossy tabloid. O'Neill does skimp on the pockets though, so I suggest keeping your keys and other small valuables on the outside.

It's rare to see such a stylish looking bag priced under $50. It may not last more than a season or two, but at that price, who cares?
