Ruitertassen Briefcases?

[eliev]

I just got this as a birthday present:




It is made by a company called Ruitertassen, which is based in Belgium. It is a beautiful briefcase! It is very wide, so I can use it to carry a laptop, files and even a sandwich and water bottle. It's a bit like Saddleback but less expensive (this cost 190 euros) and with a more classic and less "rugged" look.

Apparently "natural" colored leather gets better with time! (http://suziefloozie.com/html150/S019...intage_bag.php)

Has anybody heard of this brand or owned any of their products?

Nice looking bag. Better design (for my purposes) going by the external layout than most of the Saddleback briefcases I'd say, though I'd want to see inside pics.

Not a brand I'm familiar with, but I was living in Italy for 3 years, and in Italy leather=Florence.... or Venice. That was pretty much it. They'd probably try to beat to death anyone importing.. :)

This web site has a lot of pics: http://suziefloozie.com/html/ruitert...el_bag_008.php Obviously the one shown is a little older!

I will upload some of my own as soon as I have time.
