I have an oxblood bag, it looks nice and is unique compared to brown and black ones you'll see everywhere. Fairly versatile, goes with lots of colors

I have a pigskin (heavy grain medium/light brown) bag that was a gift from Wilson to an AFL team. It sticks out like a sore thumb, but makes an awesome conversation starter. When not visiting clients, I use a basic black laptop case.

The only difference between Asset Management and Investment Research is assets. I generally see somebody I know on TV on Bloomberg/CNBC etc. once or twice a week. This sounds cool, until I remind myself that I see somebody I know on ESPN five days a week.
