No idea how old the thing is, but it seems to be in good shape.

It's pretty heavy even when it's empty and has a nice a sturdy construction, so I'm thinking if I filled it with a bunch of metal or something I could have a potentially deadly improvised weapon in plain sight and work on my strength at the same time.

It would also be pretty hilarious if someone ever tried to steal it only to be taken off guard by the weight, giving me a chance to take them down.

Anyways, the only problem is that it's brown and all of my clothes/accessories are grey-scale so it doesn't really match. It seems to be made out of some sort of leather, real or otherwise. Do you think I can just paint it or something? Seems like a pain to try and replace all of covering.

Was the owner of the antique shop a sinister old man who kept repeating, "You don't pay with money here"?

No, well he was vaguely sinister, and apparently they really prefer cash since there was a sign that said anyone using a card would get no discounts... and pretty much everything in there was discounted. I got some pretty cool books for $1 a pop since the lady who owned that section of the shop was moved into a nursing home and they were getting rid of her stuff, I might go back and get some more in the next few days.

Spray paint it and decrease its value.

It wasn't all that expensive in the first place, but on principle I don't want to ruin it. I'm thinking something as low grade as spray paint would do that. What viable options do I have?

Hmm... You might be onto something there, a flame would blacken it and give it an interesting look... Maybe some light burning and a coat of some sort of varnish to stop the ash from rubbing off on things?

As far as I can tell. I can't find an sort of identifiers on it at all, but it's leather or faux leather.

TC is one of the cringiest people I've ever seen, but he walks that fine line of being believable and being complete bullshit. I can see either way.

Rock the suitcase the way it is regardless of your clothing color scheme. You can't always pick the color of the gear you pick up. Besides, stats>>>>>>>>>style.

For most of history that was definitely the case, but in this relatively peaceful time I would argue style trumps stats, although only to a degree. If stats alone were still viable I would be wearing body armor and using a gun, not a melee weapon. Style is important because it shows a regal nature in a better light than domination granted by high stats. Now what kind of King wears black and grey with a brown briefcase?
