New Era Cap Carriers

New Era Cap Carriers
Once upon a time I took my hat wardrobe as seriously as I did my sneaker collection.  That was a time when I was younger, had hair, and in pursuit of rap stardom.  Never one to be out of character, my hats would travel with me everywhere I went, but I always had one problem: how the hell do I pack...

Nothing makes my angrier than getting to the airport, checking my bag and having them tell me I brought too much sh*t, and that I have to pay for it.  This suitcase comes with a built-in digital scale.  All you do is press the button, pick up the suitcase, and the weight will show up on the LCD screen...

This is very cool! How much does packing suck, really? I myself hate trying to figure out where to put what, stuffing this with that, and trying to figure out how to fold that thing so that it fits better with all those other things.
