Are you anticipating your return to the office? Why not discover a little style inspiration for the modern gentleman for your comeback at work. There has never been a better time to reinvent your style and invest in some classic pieces…
The Paolo 2-Sectioned Briefcase
The Paolo classic 2-sectioned Italian leather briefcase is one of our best-selling men’s briefcases. It was the first briefcase to be designed by our CEO and founder William Scott Forshaw when he founded the company back in 2002 and has become a firm favourite since then. This is due to the simple yet classic design that is handcrafted from the finest full grain, vegetable-tanned leather. The Alce lock opens to two main sections large enough to accommodate A4 files and a 16 inch laptop which makes the Paolo distinctly practical for the modern businessman.
Due to its smart and sleek design, the Paolo adapts to both more traditional tailoring and relaxed attire, meaning that it is the ideal accessory to execute a smart/casual dresscode. Simply dress down suit separates in classic colours with a rollneck jumper for the cooler winter months. Finished with a pair of traditional Oxfords, this is the refined way to perfect smart/casual dressing.
The Basilio Executive Briefcase
For the lawyer with refined taste, the Basilio Executive briefcase is the ideal investment. It is specifically designed to accommodate A4 files, as well as other everyday essentials with detachable utility slots for a phone, business cards and pens. The structured exterior will, however, always maintain a smart aesthetic – pairing well with traditional tailoring.
Depending on your workplace culture a three-piece suit can seem either completely appropriate or a touch overdressed. Either way, donning a full suit can feel empowering for those days full of important meetings. The key is to keep it classic, with a crisp white shirt and subtle printed tie to complement the look. For a day at court or meetings, the Basilio executive briefcase should be by your side.
The Flero Medium Travel Bag
The art of business travel is often hard to perfect but, requiring the right luggage for your trips is a clear necessity. The Flero medium leather travel holdall is hand-luggage (for the majority of airlines) and as such, is highly practical whether you are travelling by plane or train. With a 38 litre capacity, it works well for both short business trips and long weekends away. The design is a true classic, handcrafted from the finest full grain, vegetable-tanned leather. Two secure buckles and floor-to-floor zip open to a spacious interior, with a small rear zipped compartment in the lining to separate out essentials. The Flero truly is a travel essential.
For easy travelling then, more relaxed attire is necessary. A suede jacket is the ideal way to marry traditional taste with a more casual look. When paired with a pair of dark jeans and navy jumper, this jacket looks best in a more unusual chocolate brown or forest green. With a pair of boots and contemporary sunglasses, this is how to travel as the modern gentleman.
The Alanzo Briefcase
The Alanzo briefcase is a more unusual option with umbrella straps and large pockets to the exterior to ensure its unique look. This is distinctly practical with plenty of space for your daily essentials with the spacious interior large enough to accommodate a 17” laptop. For the modern gentleman, the Alanzo marries functionality with an individual look that remains a smart choice. After all, each is handcrafted by skilled artisans in the heart of Italy from the finest full grain, vegetable-tanned leather that will develop a stunning unique patina over time.
This distinct quality pairs well with a more traditional tweed jacket. For the office, this should be complemented by smart suit trousers, a crisp white shirt, lightly-patterned tie and brogues. This way, the Alanzo will take you from meetings in the city to a weekend escape to the countryside.
The Varese Pilot Case
A classic Italian leather pilot case, the Varese offers plenty of space to take you from the airport to the boardroom with ease. The hard exterior provides a sleek aesthetic, as the twin combination locks will also ensure that your valuables are stored securely whilst maintaining a professional image. Inside there is a large internal slip pocket (with velcro fastening) and organisation panel, alongside plenty of space for paperwork, files and a change of clothes if necessary.
With this, the Varese premium leather pilot bag is ideal for travelling when you are required to go straight from the airport to a meeting or two. This requires more relaxed tailoring which is both comfortable and smart. For this balance, it is best to choose a suit in a softer fabric such as this wool, linen and silk-blend suit. This can then be complemented by a classic tie and monk strap shoes for a look that effortlessly blends quality, functionality and style.
