One of Coach's most popular briefcases, this is a gorgeous unisex sale! The body is large enough to easily hold legal files, laptop, whatever you need and then some thanks to the gusseted front pocket and a full length back slip pocket. This bag just keeps going! There's even a little organizing area in the front pocket; a place to keep a couple of pens, business cards, and cel phone (though truth be told, I think it was meant for a computer disk back in the day). The adjustable strap is long enough to wear shoulder or cross body style, or you can take the strap off and use the top handle. The dowel reinforced top assures that the bag doesn't sag, no matter how much or little you carry in it. I have seen this bag used by an attorney, and he had more stuff stuffed in this bag than I could ever imagine you could put in a briefcase!

~CONDITION:
Excellent vintage condition. There are no popped stitches, stains, or worn piping, there is just an indentation in the back. It came to me with a broken turnlock so I replaced it. I did go ahead and give it the full refurbishing, which in the dowel top bags is a little trickier because you really have to take it all apart before washing the bag so the dowel doesn't warp. Regardless, the briefcase was disassembled, washed, slowly dried, reassembled, brass polished, and deep hand conditioned. It's now ready to head off on its next adventure!
As ever, if you have any questions.
