Anyone own a Saddleback Leather bag?

If so is it worth the investment in your opinion and what color do you have?

There was a thread on this recently.

I'll try to find it, but until then, here's a link to their website.

I never pulled the trigger on a briefcase due to the large 9" depth. Instead I went with a Tumi. I do, however, own Dave's iPad case & wallet. Can't beat it for the price. Guaranteed for life!

In terms of color, I went with Dark Coffee for both items.

I own the Medium Classic Briefcase in Chestnut, the Medium Water Bag and the iPad (L Gadget Sleeve) in Dark Coffee Brown. Saddleback builds fantastic quality products, albeit a little on the heavy side. Everything is definitely top notch and the company has excellent customer service.

I tend to use my briefcase for important meetings and during the winter months when I don't mind traveling a little bit heavier. On a daily basis, I am partial to my Filson 256/257. Here are some pics...

Yeah, they are nice. Trying to justify the cost. Cheaper than a Rolex!

Looked at many but found nothing remotely similar in style or quality....anything that came close looked too formal..also use a Dark Coffee Brown wallet everyday, 2 years on & it looks & feels so much better

initially bought a Chestnut Duffel & then a Tobacco Brown briefcase which, for me is my favourite colour & the more it's abused the better it looks
