Design Of The Best Leather Lawyer Briefcase
This Barrister's Briefcase is over-engineered, made of the toughest, most durable materials, and designed to last a lifetime. From the thick full grain leather to the German thread used in the construction, this briefcase is built to handle whatever you can throw at it. And with a 100-year warranty, you know it’ll be around long after you’re gone. This leather briefcase was designed specifically for lawyers. It will give the most professional appearance for your legal career.
No Breakable Parts in this Briefcase
It was designed with no breakable parts like zippers, velcro, magnets, buttons, or snaps. The hardware is complete overkill, but we guarantee it will not fail you. Any piece of leather on this briefcase that gets tension at all, gets reinforced with a rivet or hidden polyester strapping or both. Leather naturally stretches but those straps don’t. And then, we line the leather briefcase with pigskin, which is stronger than the cowskin, instead of some shiny fabric with a world map on it.
As Few Seams as Possible
They don’t say, “He fell apart at the seams” for no reason. Seams are the weakest link of almost all briefcases. Our rocket science solution was to create as few seams as possible. So, I designed this one with a few very large pieces of leather instead of a whole bunch of little ones. The fewer the pieces, the fewer the seams. A briefcase made with many little pieces sewn together makes it cheaper to produce but will fall apart sooner. Watch our fun seam explanation video, where I show a leather duffle bag made with 85 leather pieces. One time, in New Zealand, I interviewed an old sailmaker who called the sewing machine a perforation machine because the needle makes a lot of holes for it to tear, all in a row. That’s why sailmakers sew most parts in a zigzag pattern. It keeps the needle holes from being close to each other or in a row. If we sewed in a zig-zag pattern, it would look dumb, so sew with only five stitches per inch to put more leather between needle holes. This leather briefcase is designed for you to be the first owner, but not the last. Your job is to break it in for the generations to come. And that’s why we over-engineer all of our leather bags. It seems like the right thing to do.
Materials Used In Our Leather Briefcases
This briefcase is made of full grain leather, which is the strongest and most durable type of leather available. It's also more resistent to water. Our custom heavy duty hardware is made of 316 stainless steel. The thread used in the briefcase is a UV-resistant German polyester thread that is also thick and durable.
Full Grain Leather Briefcase
This leather briefcase is made of only the highest grade of leather, full grain. So you ask, What’s the difference between full grain vs. top grain leather? Read and see a simple explanation of them here. Basically, the grain is the tough, dense fibers on the top quarter of the hide. They’re tough as nails and tightly woven together. That grain resists water, stains, and tears. A lot of companies trick is asking the tannery to shave or sand off the top of the hide. Then, with the scars and character gone, they can cut up and use almost the entire hide and save a lot of money making briefcases. Our leather is mineral tanned with Chromium (Cr) to make it even stronger. Chrome tanned leather is the most corrosion resistant leather there is, which means your briefcase is corrosion resistant too. It’ll laugh at the rain and extreme heat and then thrive on neglect.
