I recently bought the portfolio in brown with an engraving. This is the fourth one I have now and I can easily say that this is going to be my last. Personally I like the slimmer portfolios that aren't bulky and wide to carry. The organisation and presentation of this is amazing and the leather feels great and looks like it will distress well in time. I have used it non-stop at work in meetings and my day to day duties. It holds my business cards well, holds documents neatly and in good presentation. I use the right hand side for plain lined paper for me to take notes and the right for my memos, bulletins, posters etc. as they are quickly accessible. All in all this item is stylish, pricy (but well worth the money), great with the personal touch of an engraving (I had my initials) and highly practicable, the item has good strength to it and wears well. Great purchase.
