This post might be better suited elsewhere but, seeing as the Massdrop community hasn't let me down yet with great product recommendations, any tips on a high quality, preferably full leather briefcase/messenger bag/business backpack for an enterprising professional?
TaniosHey @Tanios -- This seems like a relevant enough question, I hope you get some good advice. I've mentioned this to Ian, our Men's Style buyer, and he may have some ideas for you. Dude knows more about leather than anyone I know and is working to get more quality hides on the site.
TaniosHopefully we'll have some good options for you in the coming months! In the meantime, here's a good roundup of some solid options: http://putthison.com/post/102537408553/the-great-pto-briefcase-roundup-whether-because
Linjer is probably my favorite in the 'under 500' category right now, but a lot of it comes down to what style you prefer. I love Frank Clegg and Chester Mox too, but those can get pretty pricey. Let me know if you have any questions!
JonasHeinemanCanvas is nice but I'm looking for something as close to full leather as possible. Appreciate the outreach. My search for a bag is proving more difficult than originally intended, partly because I'm still a bit ambiguous about what the details of the item that I'm looking for will have. In other words, I don't know what I want, but I'll know I want it when I see it!
TaniosHave you looked at the work of Cambridge Satchel Company (www.cambridgesatchel.com)? I've thought about creating a poll for those. I've seen friends carrying them. They are gorgeous
