Good but a bit too small
"Enjoying it a lot but I wish it was an inch or two bigger in its smallest dimension."

The Dakota Reserve Waxed Canvas Briefcase is designed for 9-to-5 work utility and office-to-adventure weekend travels. Crafted with wax-coated 15 oz. canvas, durable nylon stitching, and vegetable-tanned top-grain leather trim in a distressed vintage finish, this waxed canvas briefcase is built to go everywhere with you, from work to travel.
Style meets practicality with full length zipper access, an adjustable leather shoulder strap, and generous yet manageable dimensions at 17.5” long, 11.5” high, and 5” wide. Finishing off the look, you’ll find an exterior front pocket with snap closures, hammered copper rivets, and distressed brass hardware. Inside are 5 interior sleeves for easy organizing and a laptop sleeve sized to fit most 15” laptops.
“Meet me out front in twenty, son. Don’t forget your boots.” Those were the days – and that was my favorite kind of phone call. Any Friday that he could, just as he left the office, Dad would make that call. He had always said, “When adventure calls, you better answer.” He’d drive by the house, and I’d hop in the truck. With a wave to Mom, we’d be off to the fishing hole or the trailhead or just to the burger joint one town over. It never really mattered. What mattered was the reminder that an adventure is what you make it – and it’s never too far off. Whether you’re carrying this waxed canvas briefcase to the office or straight to your next adventure, its durable design is up to the task.

"Enjoying it a lot but I wish it was an inch or two bigger in its smallest dimension."
"Been searching for a bag like this to take on work trips as I travel by plane frequently. Looked at some other brands and they were OK, but didn’t have the look and the storage capacity. I’m extremely happy with this purchase. It is a little stiff at first, but that’s to be expected with the waxed canvas. It’ll soften over time."
"The bag looks and feels good. The canvas shows scratches/scuffs but it only gives it character not any damage. The leather feels nice and the stitching looks okay at least to my eyes but the bottom of the bags leather being so soft concerns me that it will fall apart over time. The strap on the other hand feels not strong enough. The leather strap gives me impression its struggling to hold the bag when packed full. The carabiners used somehow unclipped themselves one day when putting my bag in the car and picking it back up by the strap to put on my shoulder. Resulting in me dropping the bag. Not really a defect but I suspect its because the mating surface for the carabiners two "claws" is very small."
"The bag is gorgeous, however; the waxed canvas does scratch easily. I plan on using it daily as my laptop bag and someday gift it to one of my kids."
"The craftsmanship is simply outstanding. The design of this briefcase is so functional without being overly organized. It’s super comfortable to carry or to hang from the shoulder. The combination of waxed canvas and leather really gives this a fantastic aesthetic."
"Beautiful, high quality product!"
"Great bag and reasonably priced! Very happy with my purchase."
"Just awesome. What every textile should be in quality. Like American made really means."
"A great design and number of pockets….fantastic bag. A little stiff now but I’m sure it will loosen up with additional usage. Really nice bag!"
"If you like it based on the pictures, you’ll like it better when it arrives. Everything about it is quality. I use it daily as a laptop bag for work. The design is well thought out for this purpose, and it even has a slot for use with your luggage bag for air travel. Overall great bag!"
