Leather Briefcase for Men - Business Laptop Bag - Italian Handmade Leather Bag - Attache - Gift Box Included

I have been wanting to buy a time resistance briefcase for a long time now. This bag is not the style I wanted, however the style I wanted did not come in this beautiful green color.First off I want to say the color is perfect! The green is exactly the color I was looking for! I would 100% buy another time resistance bag. I would probably go for a different style thoughPros:1. Leather: the leather is super high quality. The craftsmanship of the leather is amazing. I love the way that the leather feels high quality and assembled correctly. Full grain leather which is hard to find!2. Many different compartments! You can hold a lot in this bag. Fits my iPad Pro 12.9 inch.3. Professional appearance. This bag is super clean and looks amazing. I can wear to work.4. Unique color: Hard to find this color. I specifically bought this bag for the color.5. The packaging: this bag comes in a very high quality box, with cute little cards inside that make it feel very luxurious.6. Weight: you know this is a high quality bag because it is dense! It’s not too dense in my opinion but it has a good bit of weight to it. Feels like an expensive bag.Cons:1. The hardware is questionable, I actually almost did not purchase because I read other reviews that said the same thing. Most of the hardware on the bag seems high quality with the exception of the main buckle that holds the bag shut. I just purchased and right out of the box it seems questionable. The locking mechanism is cheesy and I can’t get it to work. Other reviews say that the buckle itself does not stay closed. I have not had this problem yet but I believe it is because I do not carry the back by the top handle nor do I attach the strap to the top of the bag (I use the side strap attachments). If you buy this bag I believe you will not have any problem with the hardware as long as you attach the strap to the SIDE loops not the top loops and do not place unneeded stress on the buckle. I’m giving the bag 5 stars because the hardware hasn’t been an issue for me yet. If it does I will update the review.2. The green only comes with silver hardware…( I would have preferred gold or brass)3. The main compartment has 2 pen holders but only one is big enough to hold a pen. The other must be for a pencil or something.4. The main compartment has a cell phone holder? I’m not sure what the purpose of the strange pocket is next to the pen holders but it doesn’t fit an iPhone. Not sure what I’m going to put in it.Summary: if this color was offered in one of the brands more expensive briefcases I would have bought it. I hope time resistance makes more fun colored bags in the future (like purple, green, turquoise etc). The hardware is the most questionable thing on this bag. Other bags from the brand seem to not have this problem. This is an overall solid briefcase in my opinion. Seems to be high quality!

SUPERB! I wanted a briefcase/laptop bag for my 15" Apple laptop. I looked at a very wide range of bags/briefcases and settle on this one. One thing that stood out, other than the great leather presentation, was the handle. I wanted something with a comfortable handle, and this one had that. I also wanted solid construction, and this one made the presentation of having that, too. When I got it, it was all I wanted and more. I will point out that the one thing I found disappointing was the CLASP that held the top flap closed ... it kept opening almost of its own accord (whenever it touched/bumped into anything). I immediately contacted the vendor (TIME RESISTANCE/manufacturer) via email and reported this. I heard back the very same day. I was told they acted on my complaint and found that I was correct. They sent me not only a newer/much sturdier clasp, but also a few other things (leather care product and a complete set of tiny screw drivers to take out the old clasp and install the new on ... took just a minute to accomplish ... super easy). In summation: I LOVE THIS BAG! It's stylish/rugged, and comes with a shoulder strap (same leather, of course). My several emails with the vendor were answered the same day (giving that they're in Europe, sometimes first thing the following morning). I couldn't have asked for more.Leather Briefcase, Leather Laptop Bag Medium Brown, Leather Attache - Time Resistance

I bought this bag primarily because of the unique bold green color and sturdy leather material. I like the style of this bag because a lot of laptop bags (for women) tend to look like giant purses and open from the top. This bag is great because I can comfortably fit my laptop, cables, and notepads inside without it being bulky. The leather is really sturdy and seems well crafted and durable, so I anticipate this elegant bag will last a long time.

Love the leather, style and executive look but the buckle clasp doesn't stay closed. It is a shame that I have to now look for a similar bag and really could not recommend the bag to others knowing the buckle will fail. What good is a bag that doesn't close? What a shame for such a good looking bag.

The latch won’t stay closed. The leather is hard and unbending. It doesn’t hold much- too tight.

Five years later edit: This briefcase is still going strong after five years of almost daily use, traveling back and forth across the country with it and not treating it with kid gloves. It aged nicely as hoped; its wear just seems to give it character. I've only had it cleaned up a couple of times by a shoe care shop; the owner had lots of positive remarks about it. This may well be the last briefcase I ever have to buy!***************If you're seeking out a real leather briefcase, you know there are just soooooo many to choose from. When you filter out all the options that won't fly in a professional setting, you're left with this briefcase, and then briefcases starting at double the price, and then the $1000 and up options. This briefcase is obviously not going to compete with the over $1000 crowd, but it's only a little less nice than those double its price, so I'd say it represents a good value. It's a little overly stiff, some of the hardware is a little less than top quality, and the pen holders are useless in their tiny size. However, the fit and finish is nice, it fits a 15" MacBook like it was custom made for the purpose, there are lots of useful pockets and compartments without looking like an inelegant TUMI-style briefcase, it seems like it will last a good long while, and the handle is very comfortable. It's also clear that the company behind the briefcase really cares about their products.Recommended unless you're willing/need to spend kind of an obscene amount for a briefcase!
