Bucket Boss Brand 06005 Contractors Briefcase

 (40 customer reviews)

I had been shopping around for an over the shoulder strap day bag for some time but nothing seemed to suit my needs until I found this one. I am not a contractor but I find this bag perfect for my daily needs. It is less expensive, more durable, and has ten times more pockets than the competition. I especially like the outer straps for blueprints. Granted, I don't carry any blueprints around but its great for newspapers and magazines not to mention a wet umbrella that you may not want to put in the bag. I highly recommend this bag.

I was looking for a replacement for my Lands End briefcase [I've had three of those but I'll never go back]. One of my complaints about the last one I had was that it was navy blue and things like my black cell phone would get lost down in it [along with other things]. With only a few small but deep pockets inside, there wasn't a good place for the phone, and things tended to get very disorganized.

I've been carrying my Bucket Boss briefcase on a daily basic for two years now, and it still looks new. It may be designed for contractors, but there are plenty of features that make it perfect for computers geeks as well. There's room for a laptop, of course; a special pocket for a cell phone that lets you hear the phone ring, tons of pockets for pens, pencils, screwdrivers, pliers, a digital camera, books... whatever you need to carry. It's rugged, looks good in almost any setting, yet doesn't attract the attention of thieves like the typical laptop case or fancy briefcase. Highly recommended.
