What does the captain of a fishing vessel carry to a business engagement? What’s in a forest ranger’s hand at a lunch meeting? It’s not a leather Louis Vuitton briefcase. Chances are, those who don’t have a closet full of $4,000 suits but still have some business to attend to, go for this decidedly more rugged option from Filson. It looks good without a whiff of pretension and will last longer than most.
The Ripstop Nylon Compact Briefcase is made from a hyper-durable yet lightweight nylon, influenced by the parachute fabric developed for WWII airborne troops. Filson called on the textile experts at Cordura to make the 500D ripstop, so it can definitely take a beating. Inside, there’s room for your 15-inch laptop plus pockets for documents and accessories. Grab it by the handles or sling it over your shoulder with the removable strap and get down to business.
