Also reminds me; I should probably figure out what to replace my red Jansport backpack with, eventually. Of the nearly five years I've used it, it's not only starting to show a bit of wear and tear, but I also believe that it would look pretty out of place with even just a sport coat. Now this is where something leather might come in well. I'm currently thinking some sort of briefcase or weekend bag, any opinions? I'm not particularly sure about messenger bags. It is almost as if using one is also a fashion statement these days, not to mention the derogatory nickname of "murse."
"Murse": male nurse? No other ideas...
Anyway, if you are still looking for a briefcase, ask for one of these for Christmas from Saddleback Leather. Pricey, but beautiful - and they do have a 100 year warranty.
In my case, I am using a cheap leather briefcase from Wilson's. It does the trick, it is much nicer than my old backpack, and I can actually wear it with sports coats.
