Football Purses

Football-Shaped Football Purses

If you’re looking for a fun way to show the world how much you love football, as well as start a conversation and generate some laughs, look no further than a leather football-shaped football purse. And don’t think you should limit its use to games, tailgate parties and Thanksgiving gatherings; a bag this fun should be trotted all over your daily gridiron whenever you like.

The football purse available online at Red24 Bags is crafted from an actual football. It has a fully lined interior with a pocket, silver fittings and a Red24 whistle zipper pull. It comes with a drawstring storage bag.

You can also buy a football bag at B2 Sports. It’s just about the same as the Red24 bag, although the picture indicates it is a darker brown.

Team Logo Bags

Less expensive than a football-shaped bag, but still a great item to carry when going to a game is a purse with your favorite team’s logo emblazoned on the front. Most professional and college teams will have web sites where you can buy purses, as well as matching scarves to wrap around them. It’s also worth checking out sites like I Got Your Bag, which has bucket, shoulder and messenger bags for dozens of college teams. These bags will be pretty basic, mostly black with the logo. But they’re also inexpensive and a fun way of adding some extra rah-rah to the game.

For something a bit more potentially controversial, you can have the We Want a Touchdown bag, which is a college-football themed canvas purse in brown with pictures of various team footballs and helmets. One side is studded with rhinestones. The purse comes with a matching cell phone case and has a checked lining. Of course, with so many rival teams on your bag, you may find yourself the center of some heated debates, but you can claim the bag is a statement representing the inherent purity of sports and the teams’ equality. It also comes as a hobo bag.

Football Patterned Purses

If you’re not up for courting controversy, try the football skirt handbag purse at All Things Trendy. It’s a black bag covered in footballs. In addition to being cute, it’s practical, featuring an interior zipper pocket and pockets for a cell phone and Palm pilot or BlackBerry. It also comes with a coin purse.

Ball-Shaped Bags With Logos

For a few lucky team supporters, you can combine the best of both bags with a football-shaped purse that has your team’s logo on it. Football Fanatics, whose products are available on Amazon, make several such bags supporting college teams. Best of all, they retail at a price that a poor but passionate college student can actually manage.

Make Your Own Football Purse

For the crafty gal out there, a felted knit purse in either the shape of a football or featuring her team’s logo is a great project to work on during commercials interrupting the big game. Check for patterns online on sites like Knitting Pattern Central and Knitting on the Net. If you can’t find exactly what you’re looking for, you can post a query on a message board and will quickly be inundated with helpful responses from your fellow knitters. You may be a team player, but it’s still fun to have an individualized handmade handbag showing your support!
