Matt and Nat Tom Suitcase

Carrying your things around doesn't have to be done with the backpack you had in college. There is an elevated way. When toting your gear to and from work, carrying them in style affects your overall brand, aka who you are at work. A leather bag exudes an air of class and timelessness. This brown leather briefcase from Matt and Nat has all the space one needs for their trek to work, and back. Designed with two main compartments: one with two pen holders, a phone pocket, and a zipper pocket for your extras, and an entire separate compartment that fits a 15" laptop. This separated design provides ample room for other necessities like chargers, notebooks, and folders without causing any awkward bulging.
