need help finding lux business portfolio/case

[ZKaudio]

So I've been on a month long quest and still haven't found anything I liked. I'm essentially looking for a leather portfolio (type that holds a paper pad on one side, bus cards + pens on other) that zips on the side. I need this for when I'm dealing with stuffy clients and I want it to be uber slick; I already have a montblanc one, but it's beat to all hell. Gucci makes a decent one but it's monogrammed and I hate monogrammed stuff. I'm sure esp you new york members have seen some very nice ones w/ the wall street types. Help me out by posting up anything you've seen. Links would exponentially halp me. thanks!

Darling,

It all depends on how much you would like to spend. A few suggestions below (it does not get much better than this in terms of quality and status, but you asked for it! I personally like the Louis Vuitton and the Smythson ones). Happy shopping and let me know if you need more help or if you settled for one of the below!

Louis Vuitton

the ghurka one is my fav in terms of design, but I am looking for something even higher end (i know this sounds ridiculous). I need a brand with some notoriety even to the non office-chic crowd. Bear in mind some of the clientele I meet with are the foofiest people you could ever imagine. The LV is cool but I need one that opens like the ghurka. I think the louis one is more like a briefcase and I already have a nice briefcase.

again, at this point the ghurka has my vote... any other takers?
thanks freddie.

You have a point. I guess I'm a sucker for italian leather and I'm always impressed with their workmanship. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

Darling, you're making me pull out the big guns! Nothing is more prestigious than Ghurka or Smythson (did you notice those prices???), but I understand that you may want to bring something that is more readily recognizable.

Let's try again with Coach, Dunhill and Bottega Veneta:

The Bottega Veneta is very sharp. A bit not conservative, but well executed and easily leaves an impression. Plus it's Italian

Freddy, have someone picking up the Ghurka already... If I don't like it 100%, I'll give it to coworker for bday... btw, don't care about price... Business expense
