While I was corresponding with a customer of ours I realized that, at times, we at M&W Traveler take for granted some of the travel features we have built into our leather laptop briefcases. I thought I would take time to point out some of these made in the U.S.A features. Our goal in the design of our leather briefcases was to build in features focused on people like us, business travelers. Many of the top quality leather briefcases today tend to look at styling and tradition and do not take into account how much business travel has changed the last 10 years. Our travel features include:
- Quick Release Snaps, perfect for going through TSA security lines.
- Extra loops on front pockets for easy closure.
- Laptop padding on sides and bottom of our leather briefcases (many times briefcase manufacturers only having padding on the sides). One case I used to use had only leather on the bottom, and I found it was hard on my laptop when I unintentionally would set my briefcase down quickly on a hard surface.
- Leather tether to snap on your keys when traveling.
- Leather back pocket that allows you to put miscellaneous items when you don’t want to open the briefcase up.
- Pen and business card holders along with two interior pockets for phones and miscellaneous items. I found that having only one pocket for my phone in the past was never enough, I always had another item I wanted for quick access.
In addition to the business travel features, we took the opposite stance that many leather briefcases have gone with using less leather in the interior to save costs. If you notice our entire inside cover flap is finished leather. This is just one of the features that we feel sets us apart. I wish you the best in your travels this Labor Day weekend.
