Buy Leather Briefcase

Q: Where can I find high-quality leather briefcases for work?

You can find high-quality leather briefcases for work at specialist leather brands such as STILORD, which has offered bags in cowhide and buffalo leather since 2014. Our range includes classic and vintage briefcases with a padded laptop compartment, space for A4 folders and an adjustable shoulder strap. Customers rate our briefcases 4.9 out of 5 stars on average, and standard delivery to the UK is free. If you prefer a slimmer bag without a document compartment, take a look at our leather laptop bags .

Q: What are the best leather briefcases?

The best leather briefcases combine robust leather, a well-protected laptop compartment and a layout that keeps documents and accessories organised. When comparing models, check these points: Leather: full-grain cowhide or buffalo leather lasts for years and develops a patina. Fit: compare the laptop compartment in centimetres, not only the screen size in inches. Carrying options: sturdy handles, a detachable shoulder strap with a shoulder pad and, for business travel, a trolley sleeve. Service: during the guarantee period, our customer service helps with spare parts and leather care tips. A popular example is our vintage briefcase "Anton" .

Q: How do I choose a leather work bag that's both stylish and functional?

Choose a leather work bag based on what you carry every day: if you take a laptop, documents and chargers to the office, a leather briefcase with a padded compartment and several inner pockets is the most practical choice. Size: slim models suit the daily commute, larger briefcases take wide A4 folders as well. Comfort: most of our briefcases weigh around 1 to 2 kg; a shoulder pad makes longer walks easier. Colour: black looks formal, brown and cognac work with suits as well as smart-casual outfits. For a lighter load, a leather satchel can be a good alternative.

Q: How much does a good quality leather briefcase cost?

At STILORD, a good quality leather briefcase costs between about £110 and £330, and most models are priced between £140 and £240. The price depends mainly on size, type of leather and features such as a trolley sleeve or a lock. Very cheap briefcases are often made from bonded or coated leather, which wears faster. Please note: our briefcases are dispatched from Germany. Standard delivery to the UK is free, but import VAT, customs duties and clearance fees are not included in the price and are paid by the recipient. Details can be found under payment and shipping .

Q: Which leather briefcase fits a 15.6 or 16 inch laptop?

Most models in our range are leather laptop briefcases for 15.6-inch laptops, with a padded compartment of typically around 38.5 x 26 cm. This also fits many 16-inch laptops, such as the 16-inch MacBook Pro. As laptops of the same screen size vary in width and depth, compare your device with the compartment size stated in centimetres in each product description. For larger devices, we offer briefcases for up to 17.3 inches, such as the "Goliatus" with a compartment of up to 38 x 28 cm.

Q: Does a leather briefcase hold A4 documents and folders flat?

Yes, a leather briefcase for A4 documents keeps papers flat if its main compartment is slightly wider than an A4 sheet (29.7 cm). Almost all of our briefcases are in landscape format, so A4 notepads and documents fit without being bent. Many models also hold a wide A4 lever arch file with a spine of around 8 cm. You can see which format fits in the "DIN format" filter: "DIN A4 (pad)" stands for notepads and thin folders, "DIN A4 (wide binder)" for lever arch files. If you only carry documents, a leather conference folder may be enough.

Q: Can I get a leather briefcase with a lock?

Yes, several models in our range are leather briefcases with a lock , usually a push or snap lock that opens with a small key. Our briefcases do not have combination locks. A lock keeps the bag closed and protects documents from unwanted access, for example on the train or in a meeting room. It does not replace a safe, so it is best to keep particularly valuable items on you. A model with a lock and room for 17-inch laptops is the "Stanley" .

Q: Which leather is best for a briefcase?

For a briefcase, full-grain leather from cowhide or buffalo is the best choice: it is hard-wearing and develops a characteristic patina over time. STILORD uses only cowhide and buffalo leather, available in two finishes: Smooth leather: full-grain with an even surface, for a classic, formal look. Matte leather: not full-grain, with a slightly matte, soft surface for a vintage look. Some models are also available in vegetable-tanned leather, for example in dark brown or cognac. Tips on how to keep your bag in good condition can be found in our leather care guide .

Q: Is a leather briefcase waterproof?

No, a leather briefcase is not waterproof, but our leather is water-repellent: it protects your belongings from light rain and everyday moisture on the way to work. If the bag gets wet, wipe off drops with a soft cloth and let it dry at room temperature, never on a radiator. Regular care keeps the leather supple and helps it stay water-repellent, for example with our leather balm with beeswax . If you cycle or often walk in heavy rain, protect your laptop and papers with an additional sleeve.

Q: Are briefcases still in style?

Yes, briefcases are still in style , especially a classic leather briefcase with a timeless or vintage design. Today they tend to be slimmer, softer and more versatile than the rigid cases of the past. In formal offices, a black or dark brown briefcase looks appropriate; in a smart-casual setting, brown and cognac tones are a good fit. A detachable shoulder strap makes a briefcase for men and women suitable for everyday use as well. If you want both hands free, our 2-in-1 backpacks are an alternative.

Leather briefcase - your business card for a stylish appearance

If you perhaps wonder which accessory has a very special business appeal, you don't have to think too deeply. It's not the notebook, the watches, the business suit or even the business costume - but the leather briefcase! The briefcase outshines all the others and easily pushes itself into pole position, regardless of whether it's womens briefcase or mens briefcase. It is true that briefcases are also made of materials other than leather today. But to be honest, if you want to appear stylish and professional in the office, at meetings, conferences or in the field, you should go for a leather briefcase.

It looks just so professional when the business bag offers precisely the space you need as a businesswoman or businessman for your many small and larger things. This way, notebooks, paper, business plans, contract documents, proposals, or even pens are always stored in style.

The office bag is intelligently divided inside and has special compartments. Handy and organised, the briefcase supports your professional impression at every business meeting! Experts know, by the way, that it is the patina of the real leather that gives the briefcase a very special vintage look. Timeless, representative and reputable - this is how your new business bag impresses in the modern professional world.

In short, a stylish and handy leather briefcase for men and women is more than just a necessary business accessory. Rather, it is your business card for a respectable appearance!

Here you will find the perfect Vintage briefcase for your needs

Are you searching for a high quality leather briefcase for men or for women with a vintage look? A supplier that offers high quality and service at a fair price? Welcome to STILORD - the lifestyle brand for real leather and high-quality vintage products. Our feature: a unique large range of mens briefcases, leather shoulder bags and womens briefcases. Your very personal taste and needs decide what you are looking for. Whether you are looking for leather briefcases for men or for women, we will be happy to help you choose your new bag:

Would you like to use your handy briefcase only as a document bag? Or do you want to use it as a laptop bag, and you are looking for a briefcase with a laptop compartment?
Do you also need space for a charger or extras like A4 papers, a mouse, a laser pointer for your presentation, and the necessary cables?
Are models that can be carried comfortably by the handle or as a leather shoulder bag essential to you because you prefer to have both hands free while you are out and about?
Or you want your real leather briefcase to be lockable and for example have a combination lock?

One of the most important questions you naturally ask yourself is: What should my business bag look like? What colour should it be and what type of leather do I like best? Here are a few useful criteria for choosing your vintage leather briefcase:

Should my briefcase be made of sturdy leather or rather soft and supple?
Do you prefer briefcases made from leather types that are often in demand, such as cowhide?
Or is the elegant, haptically pleasant and yet robust genuine buffalo leather more of your taste? A high-quality leather that particularly ages stylishly, becoming more and more beautiful over the years and acquiring an incomparable patina.
Which colour do you like best and suits your taste? Is it the classic black colours, cognac brown or light brown, or do you want to set a specific accent and opt for a leather briefcase in radiant red?

Men's briefcase: respectable and professional for the next meeting

Trends always come and go. But for you as a businessman, manager or teacher, the leather briefcase for men is an almost indispensable accessory in everyday business life. Of course: many younger employees, entrepreneurs, start-up employees or teachers reach for backpacks or messenger bags. This is especially the case when they go to their office on a bicycle or motorbike, as is often the case in big cities.

For official occasions such as meetings, conferences, congresses or job interviews, the men's leather briefcase is and remains the first choice. This is all the more true when the men's business bag is made of elegant leather, is robust and also functional. The classic briefcase emphasizes both the standard of your own work and your individuality. From the men's leather briefcase to your very own unique piece: the natural vintage look tells your success story!

Ladies' briefcases: the modern business handbag

The leather briefcase for women differs mainly from the men's briefcase in its outer shape. Feminine, classic, and modern at the same time - this is the ideal companion for stylish career women! Similar to the men's business backpack, the ladies like to reach for the business tote bag. It is an excellent alternative to the classic briefcase, especially for your daily walk to the office.

In contrast to mens briefcases, womens briefcases play an important role in providing you with generous space for cosmetics and accessories. After all, as a businesswoman, you rarely carry your handbag in addition to your briefcase. A good briefcase must therefore not only be noble, made of leather, but also multifunctional and versatile: Document folder, laptop bag, accessory compartment - and also a leather handbag in one.
