Comer-Calder + Computers

Posted on October 1, 2007 Under Design

We’ve fawned over Nick Comer-Calder’s strong, elegant, and beautiful guitar cases before, so we’re happy to report that his UK-based company has recently branched into another area in need of some high-quality protection: computers. The latest to join the family of made-to-order safeguards are these sleek laptop cases, hand built from Calder’s signature combination of organic leather and carbon fiber. That red one has been made to the size specifications of the highly rumored Apple Featherbook to be debuted next year (and will also fit a variety of sub-compacts), so if you’ve already started your Christmas wish-list, you’ll probably to make room for A) even more Apple IOU’s; and B) the cases you’ll need to keep those products safe. As in: even under the tires of a 2000-lb vehicle. Yes, they really did that.
