If you are looking for a handmade leather briefcase, this collection brings together the bags we make in Liverpool that are designed to be carried into work. Our briefcase satchels combine a traditional leather satchel body with a strong top handle and a shoulder strap, and our Portfolio Tote offers an open-topped alternative with a front pocket for documents and papers.

Briefcase satchels come in five sizes, from 11 to 16.5 inches across the cut leather, so you can choose the one that suits what you carry each day rather than a particular device. Each can be personalised with gold hardware, hidden magnetic fasteners or push locks, slip pockets, a wider shoulder strap with a shoulder pad and a hand-pressed monogram. The Portfolio Tote suits those who prefer a shoulder bag with easy access, with the same choice of leathers.

Every leather briefcase in this collection is made to order by hand in our workshop, in any of our 44 leathers. Charcoal Black, Chestnut Brown and Oxford Blue are classic professional choices, but Racing Green, Mulberry Bush and our hand-distressed leathers all make a distinctive statement in the boardroom. Each bag carries our maker's mark discreetly on the back, in the tradition the Hanshaw family has followed since 1966, and is backed by our five-year guarantee and a lifetime of workshop repairs. A leather briefcase made in England is an investment that gets better with every year of use.
