Globe-Trotter Bulletproof Luggage

Do you need bulletproof luggage? Do you travel to Iraq or South Central LA? This bulletproof case from Globe-Trotter might be right for you. “This British luggage company invited famed industrial designer Ross Lovegrove (who designed the Sony Walkman) to design an exceptional piece of luggage to commemorate its 110th anniversary. Intending to create the world’s lightest rigid suitcase, Ross shaped this bulletproof bag that weighs less than 1.35-kg(three pounds). It is molded from triaxial carbon/Kevlar composites by the Toray Corp. and Dupont in Japan. They have a molded rather than assembled aesthetic so they appear lightweight – as well as feel lightweight.” The price retails for $3,500.
