It’s not like passing through airports became a more elegantprocess over the last decade. Jacket off, metal detector sweep, pat down, shoes off, jacket off, laptop into the ‘sniffer’ etc…. . It’s a little bit like having your pockets checked for chewing gum at school – but without the thrill of having a genuine chance of winning the game of deception.
Now, don’t get me wrong, I love an ethically sourced product as much as the next eco-junkie. Nearly any kind of recycled produce is good and from my side the more weird and wonderful the better. Although I suspect this one might be a step too far.
But hats off to the guys at neomansland.fr for offering this travel case made from a recycled jerry can. Available in a range of funky colours so that you wife and children can also enjoy freaking out airport security the world over. They even credit the idea to German designers. Although in the context of all the trouble this product going to get you in that’s a little like thanking the designers of the Panzer for ‘testing’ the Maginot Line.
Airport security? … yeah that’s going to go well
