More than I expected,
December 26, 2008
By
PapawJefffrom South Charleston, WV
"As with other things I have recieved from L.L. Bean, this was much more than I expected. Really a heavy nylon fabric and sturdy zippers. Its a quality piece that would serve you well at the office, on a plane, about town or as a weekend man bag that you can throw all your stuff in. Camera, lunch, sunglasses, small shopping or whatever. No more "Honey put this in your purse for me"!!!!"

Excellent Choice,
December 17, 2008
By
WooferDawgfrom Alexandria, VA
"This briefcase was a pleasant surprise after handling it upon arrival. This rugged case more space than expected and it feels as solid as it looks as well as being handsomely designed inside and out. It's an excellent choice for a replacement or someones very first briefcase. In the process of getting a couple more for Christmas gifts."

Great bag for a great price,
November 5, 2008
By
SnowmaninBuffalofrom Buffalo, NY
"I bought this bag with the intention of using it as a daily briefcase to the office and travel. It has certainly not let me down. There is so much room in the briefcase - so much so that I have yet to fill it despite my attempts to do. It carries well (I prefer to hold it by the handles as opposed to the shoulder strap) and is a far cry from the boring old brown leather briefcases everyone seems to have. I should note that I DO NOT carry a laptop in my bag but I do think you could easily fit one in there on the fly."

Fantastic except for...,
October 9, 2008
By
RIJoefrom Warwick RI
"...the top zipper. It is not quite waterproof. If it had a flap over the top zipper, it would be a five star bag. Other than that I would highly recommend this to anyone looking for a fully functioning sharp looking brief case that COULD hold a laptop but was not specifically designed for it. This was the big selling point for me. My laptop case was just too heavy with all of the "Stuff" I had to carry. Having this as a second brief case that I can carry on my other shoulder or by the handles it a great relief to my back. Since it does look so good and function so well, I enjoy just taking this with me when the laptop can stay home."

GREAT briefcase,
October 3, 2008
By
MsBeanJeansfrom Bethlehem, PA
"This is a really well-made, handsome bag. It was a gift for my husband, who loves it. The sage color is really olive green, and it looks very smart with the british tan trim. Roomy bag, fits all his stuff without looking overstuffed and sloppy. Highly recommended product."

Outstanding value,
September 28, 2008
By
Consumeristafrom Long Island, NY
"I don't know how Bean stays in business--nothing, including this briefcase, ever seems to wear out! I had this bag's predecessor for more than 10 years when I finally decided to replace it with this newer version and it's very handsome, especially with monogramming, looks good with everything, and is water-resistant. The only thing I miss from the earlier version is the interior divider, but inserting file folders makes up for its absence. The zip-enlarging feature is great when you need some extra room. Would be a great gift, too."

Sportsman's Deluxe Briefcase,
June 19, 2008
By
ReviewWriterfrom Tallahsssee, Florida
"I chose the Sportsman's Deluxe Briefcase after looking at several types. My daily briefcase is a hardside case but I wanted a flexible case with losts of pockets for air travel. This case fit the bill. The outside pocket was perfect for my passport and wallet. The inside compartments were just the right size for ipods, phones, books and pdas. I highly recommend the briefcase."

A Great Bag,
April 18, 2008
By
Ash6Shopperfrom Albany, NY
"I bought this briefcase as a gift for my boyfriend who is a beginning teacher. He loved it! Its durable- very heavy duty- stain resistant and all of the compartments are very useful. Best of all, it was delivered very quickly and it was still returnable even after I had his initials put on it. Its expandable and can hold all his text books and personal items. Doing business with LL Bean was great."

Great bag - only one "con",
April 18, 2008
By
Lawdevilfrom Atlanta, GA
"This is really a well-made, versatile briefcase. My only complaint is that the pad on the shoulder strap is way too stiff - it sort of rocks on your shoulder rather than lying on your shoulder."

Nice bag,
April 18, 2008
By
BrookynDodgerfrom Amityville, NY
"Very nice quality. Nice hardware and storage capacity. I like the fact that my laptop and sleeve fits perfectly. Expands to accomodate larger loads. Two minor issues - the contoured shoulder pad is not as comfortable as it looks and the Velcro strip across the top of the back panel is annoying. Perhaps this should be replaced with a zipper instead. Otherwise, an excellent bag. Worth the extra bucks over those found in luggage stores, etc."

Deluxe Briefcase a winner!,
April 18, 2008
By
JED22from Boca Raton, FL
"This briefcase is beautiful, and of excellent quality. The construction and fabric are built to last forever, and will stand up to very rugged treatment. Equally worthy of praise are the numerous compartments of different sizes. This briefcase is adaptable to many uses because of its flexible design."

Good bag.,
April 17, 2008
By
geogplannerfrom Albany, NY
"I bought this bag along with the Carryall to see what one would be the better bag. By far, this bag is the better bag. It was a bit smaller than I thought it would be. It doesn't hold as much as I would like it to, but still a good bag."

too many straps,
April 17, 2008
By
Sprendthriftfrom Maryland
"I checked the briefcases at LLBean to find another wonderful "ballistic" briefcase like the one we ordered a years or so ago in dark green, but couldn't find it, so ordered the Sportsman. My husband is using it as a gym bag, but it doesn't have easily accessible zippered pockets for the plastic key, padlock, earphones, etc. one carries. (The 'ballistic" briefcase is now his main briefcase, nice & stiff for documents. It had been a wonderful gym bag, too. One doesn't always need a soft bag."

SPORTSMANS DELUXE BRIEFCASE,
April 17, 2008
By
DESPERADOfrom Chesterfield, MO
"I am totally satisfied with this briefcase. It is very versatile, light-weight and and just the right size to carry newspapers, magazines, reports, and assorted personal items and to toss in the back seat of my car in a hurry. The construction quality seems very good. I am very satisfied with the sage color. I would buy this again."
