| Post subject: | Briefcase Hunt Help Needed! |
Ok guys I am having a little trouble deciding...This was my first choice....http://www.tumi.com/alpha/wheeled-delux ... uter-case/. I think thats the one at least...However, as of now I am not traveling a ton so I thought about just getting a simple brief that holds a laptop for now and leaving the wheeled bag out of the equation. I can always buy that down the line and use it when I travel. Anyways im kind of stumped, here is what I think I want... Hardshell black leather breifcase -black inside if possible, with nice compartments including a compartment for a laptop. -nice quality (No more that lets say $1,000) I would preferably like to spend under $500 for just a breifcase. -Tumi has a hardshell but its almost $2,000 and its not even leather so I think thats out of the question. -Also and this is the tough part...I would like it to have an optional shoulder strap (I dont use them much b/c I figure carrying it is a good workout but when I do want to use one its always nice to have.) Any help would be great appreciated..here is kind of an exmaple of what I am looking for but this has a tan inside and no strap and no spot for a laptop but its just a visual in case my description was kind of confusing. http://www.overstock.com/Luggage-Bags/A ... dd06dc9a.2 If you guys just want to help me with brands to look at that would be okay too. Thanks guys! Sincerely, Garret |

Garret, With Tumi you can never go wrong. My wife and I have about eight Tumi items from suitcases to my everyday 'man bag' I carry in my car. We have never had a problem with it at all and it can really take a beating. My wife has the silver Tumi suitcases and after many vacations its still looks and wears great. You won't ever regret Tumi for the money its well worth it.....wow I just sounded like I work for them, maybe I will call them and ask to be a spokesmen

agreed. I own a few pieces of Tumi gear and love them! At this time though 2,000 for their hardshell briefcase is too much money and I think the rolling piece is uneeded. Any other ideas Rick or others? |

I carry my laptop every day in a TimBuk2 messenger/laptop bag. Rugged, durable, comfortable, and it doesn't scream "I have an expensive laptop in here!". Plus you can choose them in whatever colors you want. |

If leather is not a requirement, you can always go with Pelican... they have a lifetime guarantee... but maybe it looks too government CIA MI6 -ISH...

If you want to be pointed in the right direction for nice briefcases, send archie42 a PM. He'll be able to give you VERY detailed information on the best breifcases that money and taste(!) can buy and also send you a whole bunch of cool photos of them as well.

http://www.rhorns.com/en/entry-page.html outstanding workmanship. Run by a slightly (nicely) crazy person in love with beautiful leather goods. well known in Vienna for his perfectly pleated Khaki shorts (Robert claims his knees are the sexiest in the world, a rather lonely standpoint, but quite eloquently defended). "Luxury Leatherwares for HIM and HER and the DOG too!" |
