Would you carry it? Topman’s “Western” Brief

Topman Leather Western Brief – $140.00

This would be hard to ignore if you saw someone carrying it down the street.

Allegedly 100% leather (but it’s Topman, so don’t count on mind blowing quality) and online it sure looks like it has some shine to it.  Won’t blend in and it certainly makes a higher-style statement.

If by “Western” they mean this looks like the type of brief an Old West lawyer might carry into the courthouse the day his defendant is facing the gallows for gunnin’ down a man who cut in line at the brothel… well then yeah.  It’s Western.

Could be a relatively inexpensive way to dress up a normally casual work look while avoiding standard canvas sided bags.  Still has plenty of character.  Great handle and nice contrast between the two colors.

But would you carry it?  Or is it too flashy?  Your vote goes below.
