The Commuter is such a well made briefcase. Its top loading function and durable brass zipper make it easy to load and get documents in and out fast. It is loaded with pockets to carry small items to keep you organized. The outside has handsome swooping pockets to carry mail, computer cords and other essentials for your daily needs. This is an over the shoulder type briefcase, distinct and timeless. 17wx13hx3.5deep.
