For the last ten years I've been using a leather messenger bag to carry my things when I commute to and from work. I also am one of those people who bring it with him wherever I go as I find it convenient to hold my random things, wallet, iphone, a book, gloves, etc.... As my current bag isn't of any great quality it has started looking worse for wear and I've been thinking now that I'm older (mid thirties) and work in the financial district of Toronto it would be time to upgrade. I've read a lot of good things online about the Frank Clegg English Briefcase and really like the style. My question is concerning colour as for years I've only ever owned dark brown or tobacco coloured leather bags but part of me is really leaning towards this green colour on their website. My concern is that this colour isn't as versatile. Would this be considered more, or less formal than a lighter brown? My job is more on the business casual side (we never wear suits) and I wear a lot of Navy, light blues, khakis. What are your thoughts? Is this colour risky for a bag I hope to use for at least the next 10 years or more? Also how well would it go with more casual outfits such jeans and button down shirts on the weekend. I've included an example in the picture below (I couldn't get the picture directly from the website as it seems to have just shut down for some reason)
