Recently purchased the Frank Clegg English Briefcase in chocolate from NMWA on discount. Chestnut was not available, and I was initially concerned that chocolate color might be too flat, but it turned out to look very nice. I won’t worry about the handle showing too much discoloration. Overall, great quality bag and perfect size for me.

Current collection also includes Peal and Co Attaché case from Brooks Brothers, and JW Hulme Overnight Briefcase.

Been using the Filson 257 and Vermilyea Pelle for a while now. Will be getting a Bexar Goods briefcase soon.

Hi all,

I'm in the beginning stages of starting a new hobby in making briefcases. Just wondering if there is anyone out there who would be willing to connect with me and just answer a few questions here and there as I go through the process.

Thanks. Love coming here and seeing the amazing work people do.

Just received my leather travel briefcase from Faire. I use it as my work bag. Overall, I feel very pleased with it. The bag feels soft and flexible, the pockets inside are very useful and it's easy to carry.

Good price as well. If anything, I would love to see a bagpack version in the future, or maybe even a weekender by them. Definitely looking forward to more products from them.
