I spent a lot of time trying to find the perfect briefcase for my husband, he is VERY picky. I didn't want to spend a fortune so I had to be picky. When I opened the box for this briefcase - I was ecstatic. I knew my husband was going to love it, and he opened it Christmas morning and I was right. It is a great leather material, has that awesome smell, and has lots of inside pockets. It is the perfect "murse" :)
