- Fabric -- nylon is fine. I'm afraid most leathers would be too heavy/bulky, but I'm willing to be shown otherwise. Also open to other fabric ideas.
- Style -- flexible on this; could be cross body, could have handles. Doesn't need to be super dressy, just look acceptable with business casual outfits.
- Color - Black. If there's hardware on the bag, silver, nickel, black or gunmetal are preferred over gold.
- Price - I don't want to spend $1000 on this, but for the right bag, I'm willing to invest as I will carry and use it almost weekly.
Thank you so much for your ideas.
Another vote for LeSportsac bags. Empty, they weigh next to nothing, I can use them in lieu of packing cubes inside my suitcase, and using their search feature I found 281 variations to choose from in black. I've been using them for 20+ years, they last forever and they're inexpensive enough that getting several in different sizes is an option for me.
