Briefcases vary in their use

Briefcases used to be one shape and one size and were effectively ‘one size fits all’. Today that is not the case. They can vary from a small portfolio folder through to a document case on wheels.

Document cases

Often pilots and lawyers and barristers can be seen dragging a document case on wheels behind them as they either approach their plane or the courts. Pilots now have a mass of papers to check before a plane can take off. Carrying those papers across a windy airport is not a good idea, so they are now placed in the document case and are able to be safely transported. Lawyers and barristers have mounds of paper for complex cases, and thus they need large document cases to transport these from their offices to court.

Laptop briefcases

Today a key piece of a person’s life is their laptop computer and many people seem unable to live without them. This means that briefcases now have to be designed to allow for them to be taken everywhere. Laptops vary in size from the small netbooks through to 21” screens. The weight will vary from the very light Airbooks to the older heavier versions that have very heavy batteries. They will need to be strong enough to protect the computer but light enough not to add too much to the weight.

School

Many children will throw their papers into a rucksack and believe that they will be in a fit state to be used when they drag them out at lesson time. Others will want to need and orderly and will have a briefcase that will compartmenatalised so that the papers for each lesson can easily be found and will be in a good condition when used.

Shoulder bags

For people who wish to carry their laptop and documents and are constantly on the move a good design of briefcase is the shoulder bag. These are secure in that the contents can be zipped in and the bag can then be carried on the shoulder thus allowing you to have two free hands. If you are for instance an underground user, these bags are most appropriate.
