One of our best-sellers, our men's leather briefcases are perfect for professional men around the world. Whether you’re a city worker or travelling around the country, we have a briefcase suited to you.
To give you a little bit of history, briefcases are descendants of the classic satchel which was used in the 14th century. As we’re the experts when it comes to men's leather satchels, it seems only appropriate that we started making leather briefcases!
During the 19th century, the briefcase became a popular choice for committed entrepreneurs, and it is still a top choice today in the business world. With traditional tailored attire coming back into style, we think that 2023 will certainly be the year of the briefcase!
Blending the heritage and the modern, we’ve created our leather briefcases in a timeless style to suit all men.
What makes The Cambridge Satchel Co. leather briefcases the better choice?
Our briefcase is one of our larger bag options, making it the perfect companion in your professional career. We’ve highlighted some of its best key features below:
• The central chamber has plenty of room to carry slim A4 folders.

• Plenty of room to carry your other daily essentials.
• Its discreet inner pocket helps to keep you organised.
• A beautiful top-handle to help you carry your bag.
• Magnetic closures so you can open and close the bag with ease.
Want to be able to wear your briefcase over the shoulder? No problem - our detachable, adjustable shoulder strap will enable you to do just that.
As it is made with flawless signature leather and embossed with our logo on the reverse and on its brass hardware, you can rest assured knowing you’ve bought a top-quality briefcase from us.
