Q:

Baggu vs Kaban - Is there any difference

Can someone help clarify.  When should I use "baggu" and when "kaban"? Is there any difference at all?

A:

If you use google image it can give you a general idea:
kaban results
baggu results
In short,
kaban is generally for men and baggu is generally for women (as shown in the image results). Also, kaban seems more practical and business use while baggu is more for fashion/design.
Another difference is already fixed names.
For example, エコバッグ (eco baggu) and キャリーバッグ (kyari baggu) are specific types of bags.
