These grab and go (women-) mini handbags or (men-) maxi purses to have your ID, Credit Cards, some cash and drivers license at hand within a second wherever you go. Just grab your clutch bag and keys and you'll have all you need to survive this city jungle even for days.
They have their name probably from the fact, that normally they have no belts, straps or handles to hold or carry them over the shoulder, so they must be held in your hand or "squeezed / clutched" under your arm as a woman, while the clutch bags still fit into a pocket of your Jeans as a man, or like I often do, inside the belt of my Jeans across my Spine while hiding it under my (T-) shirt
