Question for you guys. I have a slim leather briefcase that I love, however I tend to like packing a lunch to bring to the office, rather than eat out all the time. I've struggled to find a stylish lunch bag that compliments the briefcase. Any suggestions? Or should I just get a bigger briefcase. 🤷♂️
Hey man, I'm on the search for a quality daily carry bag, and this video came up. I know fashion changes and whatnot (considering this video is 4 years old), but a bit off topic, are your sleeves supposed to be that baggy?
I enjoyed this video; I’ll probably re-watch more closely. One thing I noticed part of the way through is that the reviews seemed to be very light on interior details, until the final briefcase. When I shop for a briefcase (or backpack for work) - which isn’t very often - I am often most interested in the internal organization offered by the case. Finding the right balance between too many and too few compartments and whatnot can be hard. With too many pockets and compartments, I feel the urge to fill everything, and that and the extra material add to the bulk. Too few compartments is of little use, e.g. not having a separate place for a laptop, for example. Also, it’s interesting that Incase was a choice. I liked them when I first started out, but over time I found the materials and particularly the stitching to be less durable than I’d like. Definitely an entry-level kind of thing. Has their workmanship improved recently?
Can we do some briefcases that are a little larger? They are nice bags for the most part, but simply too small to hold everything I need. When I have to throw in laptop, power cable, phone, folders and files, reference books, various tools, a flash light, notepad, writing implements, tablet, water bottle, medicines, occasionally my lunch, and I am on the move I need a bigger bag. Currently I go with the Maxwell Scott Tomicello as it has the room and a backpack just doesn't work in my line of work to look professional, keep weigtht down, and be able to carry all the day to day gear.
i want to see a video on small messenger bags that could fit a phone, wallet and some pens. As a doctor I need to move around quickly and I don't like stuff in my pockets and I have a hard time with a messenger bag.
Love your channel, just a little CC though, the color-grading of your recent videos is killing me. Is there a reason for it I'm not aware of? It does kinda make the product insert images look a lot better in comparison. BTW I use a Kenneth Cole Reaction Case.
Finding new quality content is tough when you have been around as long as you and covering topics as thoroughly. Really enjoyed this even though I have a leather bag I love.
Will you please make a video on when and when not to wear a tie, belt and socks I mean which combination works when. Please. Thank you. Love your videos.
i onno ash & dorian, because I LOVE my frank clegg weekender & briefcase. those recommends are gonna be tough to beat. but since i trust you so much, i might purchase one of these (i’ll use your link). ty ty
We tested the Linjer briefcase and it sadly didn't make the cut. The leather was just... eh, as well as the construction and hardware so we felt there were better options available. The Daniel's didn't meet our requirements in the looks department and Fossil always misses the mark in quality and styling for us.
Pls pls guys can you talk about vegan leather briefcases/backpacks/weekenders? I (and probably other people) would love it. I think it's a overlooked category and it's hard to find some fashionable products.
What a juxtaposition from the normal format. I remember a comment some time back made about what is Dorian doing in these vids? Wonder if that guy is still watching. Enjoyed it as always guys. Have a good holiday weekend and save me a burger alright?
The Bellroy is way to thin. You can’t even toss a bottle of water in it. They also don’t talk about the quality of the leather. Finally, I like metal feet as it protects the leather. I own 6 briefcases ranging from Coach to Dunhill to Prada. My next bag will be another Dunhill or a Ferragamo.
In our experience, Shinola is simply not worth the cost. Frye boots are great! We haven't tested their bags because the looks just didn't appeal to us, so can't really speak to them.
@@MensFashioner Frye makes phenomenal bags, but they are definitely more rugged looking. Just got a Shinola (on ebay) and it's phenomenal. But I agree, full price, it might not hold it's value.
This video hurts my brain. They clearly don't know the difference between a briefcase and a messenger bag. The terms are NOT interchangeable. Everything shown in this video is a messenger bag... Not a single briefcase. :-/
I only came here for the Bellroy and oh lord annoying video. Logo! I actually loved the logo and how they are displaying it. no studs at the bottom? yeah keep setting that bag on the floor and you will see what happens!

Gentleman's biz rule: Never, ever ever hoist your briefcase up onto a table/desk. Briefcase dirty - Table clean. Just don't do it.
"Bellroy is my favorite one."
*shows Bellroy briefcase*
**doesn't show any of the inside at all or discuss it's carrying capability**
You're thoughts on Satchel and Page Founder's bag and LeDaveed briefcase? I just discovered S&P and really considering getting it

What color bag work best with both walnut brown shoes and black shoes? Would dark brown be okay, or just ignore it?
Can you guys do an update with the leather backpacks? Thanks!
You guys helped me a lot since I found your channel!
Backpacks are no go for the stylish man generally. Even a quality leather one, my friend.
If you are matching your leathers, does your briefcase need to match your shoes, watch, belt, etc?

Check nuts and nobles out!
It seems Bellroy no longer sells the briefcase shown in the video. What a shame since it's a handsome bag.
Great item! Would highly recommend!
Wished they provided the link for the bellroy bag
Ashley. What do you think about tote bag for men?
Try LeDaveed Slim Briefcase or if you're doing a Duffel Bag tryout, consider their Travel Duffel. Own one myself and you get a bang for your buck.
I love your videos. But, question. Why you don’t include Tumi(s) stuff?
Awesome video and I totally agree that an initial expense which may seem expensive is really not if you use the bag for years.
i want to see a video on small messenger bags that could fit a phone, wallet and some pens. As a doctor I need to move around quickly and I don't like stuff in my pockets and I have a hard time with a messenger bag.
I think the Bellroy’s partial non leather strap is for making adjustments easier.
Bellboy has a Tote Design Bag for the Urban professional. What are your thoughts on carrying a Tote with a suit?
What do you think about Korean menswear style? Like wearing oversized polos and shirts and always tucked in top?
Nuts and Nobles all the way!
Their bags are multifuncional, high quality and stylish!!!!
Honestly I love them!!
Man that watch looks great, I reckon it’s iwc Portugieser automatic

@13:45 "So, a little high, but... when you're paying twelve hundred for a quality briefcase like myself, yours truly... you're a sucker"

Can you guys do an updated weekender bag video
Scheduled to be shot in the coming weeks!
Thank you for this video. I decided to get the Stuart & Lau. Looking forward to your future videos.
Ashley is so adorable
Got a slim Brown Boconi briefcase. Just like Bellroy, it has short handles. $300. Got it on sale @ Nordstrom Rack $150.
i onno ash & dorian, because I LOVE my frank clegg weekender & briefcase. those recommends are gonna be tough to beat. but since i trust you so much, i might purchase one of these (i’ll use your link). ty ty
the stuart and lau's bag also has the metal feet too!
I've been using Bellroy's wallet for 5 years, great product.
Bellroy
A bellroy sponsorship? Very cool!
Dorian's design requirements are eerily similar to mine
What about linjer men's slim briefcase, Daniel's briefcase, and fossil's Haskell briefcases? I'm stuck between those!
We tested the Linjer briefcase and it sadly didn't make the cut. The leather was just... eh, as well as the construction and hardware so we felt there were better options available.

@@MensFashioner thanks for your reply!
@@MensFashioner how was Daniel's briefcase leather quality? not sure what Brazilian leather is.. is it full grain leather?
Pls pls guys can you talk about vegan leather briefcases/backpacks/weekenders? I (and probably other people) would love it.

Hi Ashley and Dorian you guys are doing amazing. Keep giving awesome recommendations like this.
satchel and page slim mail bag , done and done
@alex how is it compared to satchel and page?
Does the Stuart and Lau bag have studs on the bottom?
Thank you and love a good leather briefcase investment! 👏😎👍
Would love if you guys did more episodes on leather goods. Not many channels cover them.
Patricia Nash has some very nice men's leather briefcases/messenger bags.
The best one is to buy a vintage Louis Vuitton from ebay and restore it. They are amazing value and really well built!
not recommending the coach briefcase anymore?
You guys should check our Carl Friedrick
Filson bags are wonderful to
Love your work - could you do a video on say top 5 affordable briefcases please?
First video I've seen that AW let Dorian take over.
Maybe next time some suitcases or an update on duffel bags?
Check out the bags from Waterfield design of San Francisco
What about vegan alternatives in general? Canvas that's ok, but what about pleateher?
Thank you
Lol I stumbled upon the word “Customizability” in my firs ever video on TH-cam 😂
Guys, have you ever heard of Tumi!!!
Bags you shared can't stand next to any Tumi bag.... Surprising
Can you try custom hide
I’ve really been enjoying my Filson briefcase. Definitely recommend
What a juxtaposition from the normal format. I remember a comment some time back made about what is Dorian doing in these vids? Wonder if that guy is still watching.
Enjoyed it as always guys. Have a good holiday weekend and save me a burger alright?
Could you make a video for backpacks please and thank you👍
the reason i loved this channel was for the unbiased and unsponsored contents. i'm so sad you guys are starting to turn...
Wow i wonder how much his bag costed did he say?
I gotta agree the bellboy is beautiful and thin. But man, they're expensive.
What watch is it ?
IWC Portuguese Automatic
@@MensFashioner Could you share the exact model number ? (I love the Portugueser ... being a Portuguese myself ... ;P)
after watching this, I can go to local market to buy the cheap versions of them.
Don't forget Pad & Quill. Great company, amazing leather bags.
Wish they would have talked and showed the inside of the Bellroy brief.
All those are lap top bags. You should include more types.
so where do we stand on the youtubers’ favorite carl friedrik leather goods?
I've heard the interiors on the bags are cheap and break easily so stayed clear of them.

Love your vids, but I disagree, Bellroy is not BIFL.
How 'bout some Shinola love! (and Frye)
In our experience, Shinola is simply not worth the cost. Frye boots are great! We haven't tested their bags because the looks just didn't appeal to us, so can't really speak to them.
@@MensFashioner Frye makes phenomenal bags, but they are definitely more rugged looking. Just got a Shinola (on ebay) and it's phenomenal. But I agree, full price, it might not hold it's value.
Oh, and I agree, please do this for weekenders and backpacks!
Dorian doesn’t like shininess, he must not like those Gucci and LV briefcases then.
Where did this pair find each other 🙄
Trending wear now
Nice
Anyone know how these 2 met?
th-cam.com/video/eD2NaXJ0e5A/w-d-xo.html
That's sorted then! 😃
Absolutely adore these two! Love the little shimmy that Ashley does when Dorian introduces her! 😃
You guys rock!
I thought u guys always said you’d remain sponsor free
Carl Friedrik is winner regarding briefcases/bags. It is an investment.
Timestamp please
Ashley, here's another link you might want to see (twice!) - www.esquire.com/uk/style/fashion/g9749/best-dressed-men-of-the-week-esquire
Good eye! Thanks!
No filson? 🤨
No Carl Friedrik? (insert shocked face)
Lol they probably ran out of money from sponsoring every TH-camr
My last name is Weston haha
Y’all sold out! 😭 at least it’s a cool place
Can y'all sing? Your talking voices speak to having a good vocal range.
👌👍👍
Looked like all bad choices.
These aren’t bags, they’re purses...
Someone needs to let her know about her "husband"
Don’t let women dress you men, she probably dresses him too.

Turn this woman off....
I hate nylon straps... the sponsor bag has a nylon strap... well it’s not that bad. Lol
70$ for a basic cheap canvas bag.. lmao
