The Boom Case: Vintage Suitcase Boom Boxes

06 October 2011, 20.23 | Posted in Gadgets, Style | 4 comments »

stealth-boom case2

I always wondered about the times in New York I see in movies when the sight of a subway passenger walking aound  with a boom box on his shoulder was common. A part of me wishes commuting was done to a cool beat. Imagine Sade  or some slick Jobim playing  on the A train during rush hour? Anyway,  I say all this to bring your attention to these awesome suitcases re- purposed into something called a “Boom Case.” It was hard to pick a favorite, but the black “Stealthy Business” (above) is just too boss to ignore. Plus you can have the cases customized with an iPod slot(!) Take a look at some faves on the flip, all available here,  spotten at Twbe (gracias).
