Bag Review
The Topo Designs Commuter Briefcase Review
The Topo Designs Commuter Briefcase is a magnificent bag. It checks off a lot of the requirements people would be looking for in a work bag, plus it looks good too. Just like wallets, I’m a bit of a stickler for bags. I’m not satisfied using just any briefcase, messenger, or backpack for work. There are some specific things I want out…
