Good morning all. I am starting graduate school in a few weeks and have decided to get a new (or new to me) bag to carry my books, etc. because I feel I need something a bit more sophisticated than a backpack. I will be attending school in the evenings after work, and I commute to both work and school by train, so my whole day needs to fit in this bag. I currently carry a black Logan briefcase in black to work every day, but in my experience it is a bit too small to accommodate my everyday items plus text books, etc.
I have been looking at Gigis (11131), but fear that this bag would be incredibly heavy after I fill it up. I walk quite a bit during my commute, and don't want to torture myself. I have also been considering large ergo totes (11011 or 10744), but wonder if the wide open nature of this bag will eventually present a security problem for me. Also, I am not sure if they look polished enough for work/networking events.
Any ideas and/or suggestions would be incredibly helpful. Thanks.
