Review: Cocoon Innovations Gramercy iPad Bag
9, Jul 2010Back when the iPad was new and the world was a different place, we thought we could have it all. This was before the Gulf oil spill, before the horrors of LeBron, before the East Coast heat wave of ought-ten. Back then we thought men could wear little purses to carry their iPads in. Sadly, [...]
It’s been a while since we’ve heard from Booq, but you may remember our reviews of the Mamba Shift and Boa Squeeze. The identifying characteristics of Booq bags are a slick exterior and pocket-packed interior, and the new Catch doesn’t disappoint there. It’s a messenger/shoulder bag with a bit of structure to it so it doesn’t collapse when empty. Personally I like my bags to be as big as the stuff in them, but this way is legit too.
Solar Energy, Band-Aids and The iPad
4, Jun 2010
Those kooky but fun Korean design gurus are at it again. You’d be surprised how hefty the iPad is and that smooth surface is just begging to slip out of sweaty hands so the Band are band-aids you stick all over the back of the iPad to create traction. A little too kooky for ya? [...]

It’s too bad we didn’t hear about these before Bag Week. Feuer Bags is a German company that makes bags out of decommissioned fire hose. You better believe they’re tough. Plus, they have a beautiful worn-in look right out of the box. I know “pre-worn” is a bit of a cliché now, but there’s something [...]
Unbelievably good idea: self-weighing suitcase
10, May 2010
So airlines are cracking down on the amount of luggage you can bring on board, and I can’t say I really blame them. Costs are up, profits are down, and the width of the average passenger has been increasing steadily for some 30 years now. They say can bring only 50 pounds on board, and who are you to say otherwise? You’re getting into their flying machine and going across country for a couple hundred bucks.Still, one can’t be blamed for wanting to get the most out of their money, and squeezing every last thing into one bag could end up saving you $20 in luggage fees.
But who wants to bathroom scale every time you take a trip? I don’t even have one. That’s why this self-weighing luggage is so ingenious.
