The briefcase revival comes courtesy of the popularity of totes and messenger bags offering a more practical, sophisticated alternative to backpacks. Briefcases tend to be more complimentary and effectively reduce the amount of creases left on suit jackets as they are handheld, practical as well as timeless. Whether kept at home as a document holder or actively used on a daily basis while working in the city, your briefcase can be used as the ultimate power dressing accessory, a conversation piece that means business. What other way is there to complete a suave look but with a briefcase. A worth while investment that is timeless and classic.
