Best Men's Accessories: Leather
For the Tycoon
Hermès
691 Madison Avenue, at 64th Street
212-751-3181
There aren't many men's briefcases at Hermès, but the ones it does carry are simply perfect: sleek yet formal, with elegant hardware and immaculate leather ($3,500-$4,500).
For the Tycoon-in-Training
Calvin Klein
654 Madison Avenue, at 60th Street
212-292-9000
The leather jackets at Calvin Klein owe little to their biker brethren: They're supersoft, and cut slim enough that your girlfriend may try to "borrow" yours. Justify the (high) price by saying you'll both wear it ($1,200-$2,700).
