    Perfect for the intended purpose

    I use this bag as a packable brief case for certain business trips and it really works well in that capacity. It can handle a minimal daily bisuiness carry, it looks professional, it packs well, and it is well made.

    Daylight Briefcase

    Purchased the Daylight Briefcase to lighten my load when attending conferences and customer meetings. Used it for the first time and it was wonderful. Small and light yet able to pack all of the essentials. Very happy with the purchase!

    Nice and Simple

    A great bag that is the perfect size to carry my iPad, miscellaneous office supplies, and documents (with still room for other stuff). Pockets are well-placed and easy to get to. I took a chance with the burnt orange color to be different and a little bold, and I have no regrets about my choice. Another great product by TB.
