But along with shoes and suits, plenty others feel like a splurge on a briefcase is worth the cash. It just has to be something built to last and in possession of some timeless looks. Enter the all leather throwbacks below. Each has vintage style cut from high quality leather. Both are made by companies that specialize in leather goods. With the looks & quality comes a nasty price tag, but there’s no harm in looking. Your pick should go in the comments section…
