Victorinox (Swiss Army) Eiffel - Slim-Line Vertical Brief

May 15th, 2006

I seldom stray far from home without my laptop and my Victorinox Vertical Brief. I’m also a big fan of keeping things light and simple, yet functional. The Eiffel is rugged enough to stand up to any amount of abuse (the bag itself, not the laptop inside), yet sports a sleek design that exhibits sophistication minus the pretentiousness of a traditional briefcase. A 15″ Powerbook and a few magazines or a book fit perfectly into the Eiffel’s main stowage compartments, and the front organizer has precisely the right amount of additional room for accessories and all the rest. The piece can also convert to fit nicely onto the handles of rolling luggage for easy transport when traveling. Add to all of this Victorinox’s reputation of offering extremely well-made products and a trusted warranty, and you’ve got yourself a lot of bang for the buck. Bottom line: this product offers stowage for the essentials, yet maintains a streamlined profile for both quick jaunts around town and extended travel abroad.

Suggested Retail Price: $129
