Let’s delve into the world of work and commuting bags and discover the best ones for you.


Briefcases

A classic briefcase exudes professionalism and is typically designed with a structured frame and a top handle. It often features multiple compartments for documents, laptops, and other work essentials. Briefcases can be made from various materials, including leather, nylon, or even aluminium for added protection. The Filson Original Briefcase is a popular choice among professionals due to its versatility and longevity, as it features water-resistant canvas and highlights the brand’s commitment to rugged durability. Equally, Barbour briefcases showcase their expertise in leather craftsmanship, boasting a classic design and sturdy construction.

Tote Bags

The main benefit of tote bags is their spacious compartments, allowing you to carry larger items. They also often have internal pockets or organisers to keep smaller items secure. Tote bags present a casual, more relaxed design while still retaining the stylish outer appearance. Hunter’s tote bag offers a sleek design, combining a water resistant fabric with a reinforced base to provide ultimate protection for your belongings. Barbour’s quilted tote bag comes with a detachable pouch for your smallest and most important essentials, while also showcasing a refined classic style. However, if you want to make a statement when you enter the office, a luxurious Fairfax & Favor tote is the only option.
