Know before you buy
Yes, the briefcase includes a dedicated, removable padded sleeve designed to protect most 15-inch laptops. Because the sleeve is removable, you can easily take it out if you need extra room for documents or other essentials.
Yes, the durable, full-length solid brass zipper allows the briefcase to open completely flat. This design makes it much easier to pack, organize, and retrieve your items compared to traditional top-loading bags.
The telescoping handles are designed for quick access to the main compartment. They retract slightly or move out of the way to ensure you can reach into the bag without the handles getting in your path.
The briefcase is crafted from full-grain, mill-dyed American leather, which is durable but not inherently water-resistant. We recommend using a leather conditioner or protectant spray if you frequently commute in wet weather.
No, this model does not feature a trolley sleeve or luggage pass-through. It is designed primarily as a slim, handheld or shoulder-carry briefcase for daily professional use.
The Jackson Briefcase weighs 4 pounds. While the full-grain leather and solid brass hardware provide excellent durability, they do add some weight compared to synthetic or nylon alternatives.
