Now Available: The Satchel & Page Aviator Brief
Satchel & Page's Aviator Brief — which I wrote about back in November — is now available for purchase and immediate shipping. If you missed that post the first time around, let me recap you.
This sweet-looking travel briefcase is really something special. It features the company's new British-sourced, 20 oz. waterproof waxed canvas with leather accents made from French cowhide shoulder, with some antique brass hardware to pull the look together. While it's a handsomely rustic look, it won't at all look out of place in today's business environment.
The suede lining is a lighter "tobacco" color that'll make it easier to identify the contents inside the surprisingly spacious interior, and there are a number of features (in addition to the main compartment itself) to keep your stuff organized:
- Padded laptop compartment — Fits a laptop or tablet up to 14.2" wide, and is centered within the interior so the device won't be scratched by the YKK zipper.
- Smartphone pocket
- Slots for pens and business cards
- Key clip
- Slip pockets on both sides of the exterior
This is just a stellar piece of work by Satchel & Page. When I last wrote about it, it appeared that the regular price would end up being $375, but as I write this on January 21st, 2019, it's still listed for $345. Can't say for sure if that's what it will continue to be.
To complement this briefcase, they also offer two other travel bags : the Garment Bag and the Weekender. Read details about the collection here.
