The best briefcases for men are more than functional: they say something about the men who carry them. They present themselves well, and they get the job done—the briefcase and the man. So, lose that old beat up bag and check out this year’s 5 Best Briefcases for Men. Double Handle Attaché Briefcase A double handle leather attaché briefcase is classic, stylish, and highly functional. With double handles for a quick grab, your documents will be easily accessible, while zippered interior compartments ensure they are organized and secure. Look for an attaché that includes an adjustable shoulder strap for a convenient hands-free option. And if it also includes a padded laptop sleeve like this men’s leather attache, you’ve hit a home run. Locking Attaché Briefcase Another type of leather attaché briefcase offers the added security of a locking mechanism. This type of briefcase maintains the slim profile of the classic attaché and adds a panel that folds over, clasps, and locks with a key. (But be sure to find one that still clasps without requiring the key. It’s a long story. Trust us.) Instead of the double handle, this briefcase has a single handle when the flap is closed. Again, it’s smart to find a briefcase that includes an adjustable shoulder strap, and be sure to look for interior compartments that will fit your laptop, cords, portfolio, and writing utensils. This classic leather attaché has a great locking option and fits most 15” laptops plus accessories. Leather Laptop Briefcase The leather laptop briefcase is similar to the attaché, but with an even slimmer profile. When you need something to securely carry your laptop along with a select number of essentials (as in, the just-right-size personal bag for your flight), you need a laptop briefcase. The best laptop briefcases will have a detachable and adjustable shoulder strap, interior pockets for organization, and an appropriately sized laptop sleeve. Briefcase Bag The best briefcase bags will work at least as hard as you do. Look for a leather briefcase bag with an attractive flap cover and sturdy carry handle, an adjustable shoulder strap (bonus points if it’s padded), and an interior large enough to carry your laptop, cord, and work materials with ease. Consider this leather briefcase bag, which features the padded shoulder strap and convenient interior details like slots for pens, your phone, and a secured laptop sleeve. Pilot Briefcase Bag A leather pilot briefcase bag is a fun twist on the traditional briefcase bag. Rather than a flap cover with single carry handle, the pilot bag features two carry handles and a zip closure. (And shoulder strap, of course!) Additionally, the organizational compartments of a pilot briefcase bag are found on the exterior as attractive pockets that zip or buckle. The interior, on the other hand, is simple and straightforward: a laptop sleeve and a roomy space for carrying whatever your day requires. If you need quick access to various items on the go, consider a pilot briefcase bag. A wise man once told me, “How you do anything is how you do everything.” His point? My everyday choices add up, and details matter. Are you trying to make a name for yourself at work, or at least earn a seat at the table? Even in a casual work environment, details matter. And it’s worth acknowledging that a well-made, respectable briefcase helps to show you’ve got your stuff together. Ready to find yours? Check out our fine collection of leather briefcases for men.
