If you're reading the description, you're probably ready:) If you are shopping for this briefcase, it’s pretty clear to me that you absolutely know what you want :-) feel free to go check out this product on Saddleback website. This has been an absolutely amazing piece. I used it in all different types of environments, from executive meetings to casual coffee hangouts. Usable in any environment, and the patina is perfect overall, no major cuts/scratches in the leather. It’s super-versatile, holds a 13-inch laptop perfectly, with a pocket for cords, and separate pockets for pens and notebooks. It also has a convenient thin pouch on the back, for storing a folder or something that needs to be easily grabbed. It has a strap on the inside to clip your keys and other things that you need to keep secure. The sizing is ideal, so that you’re really only carrying the things you need without unused space. The strap has an amazing dual functionality; you can loop it through the circle hook in the center of the briefcase in order to convert it to a backpack. I used that all the time during travel and it was extremely handy so that you could maintain good posture. As I am writing this description, I can’t believe that I am probably going to sell it :-) I definitely want this to go to a good home, with someone that will take it on more adventures. Make it yours. Enjoy, and I'll gladly answer questions.
