If you're choosing between the Emery Prestige Briefcase and the Kaizer Leather Cavalry Business Bag, you're looking at two vegetable-tanned full-grain leather work bags. The Cavalry is a little larger, with a double gusset for more room, and you can see it in Kaizer's showroom in Deira. The Prestige costs AED 429 less, states its laptop fit (up to 15.5 inches), and comes with a lifetime warranty, 100 days to return it and free delivery across the GCC.
We make the Prestige, so we're not neutral. Everything below comes from what each brand publishes on its website, and we've included where Kaizer comes out ahead.

Where Kaizer is ahead
The Cavalry is a bigger bag, at 43 × 30 × 9 cm with a double gusset, so there's more room for files and a day's kit. You can see and feel it in Kaizer's showroom in Deira before you buy, and you can return an online order in a Kaizer store. Kaizer also has a much bigger range of business bags, from AED 2,049 up to more than AED 4,000, and a corporate gifting service.
Where Emery is ahead
Both bags are vegetable-tanned full-grain leather, so on leather it's close. Emery's tanneries are LWG-certified, and the Prestige uses solid brass hardware and a YKK zip. It's AED 429 cheaper, and it states what fits: laptops up to 15.5 inches in their own compartment, with three inside pockets, a large outside slip pocket and two pen slots. Kaizer doesn't give the Cavalry's laptop size, so check in store if you carry a large laptop. Our laptop bag size guide lists real laptop sizes.
The terms differ most. Emery's warranty on the Prestige is lifetime; Kaizer covers defects for one year and charges for repairs after that. Emery gives you 100 days to return it; Kaizer gives 14 days, and the buyer pays the return shipping. Both deliver free in the UAE, and Emery also delivers free to Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Bahrain, Kuwait and Oman.
Which should you choose?
Choose Kaizer if you want a bigger bag, want to see it in a Dubai showroom first, or are buying several bags for a company.
Choose Emery if you want vegetable-tanned full-grain leather with solid brass, a stated laptop fit, a lifetime warranty and 100 days to decide, for AED 429 less.
