Bag kaku is a wooden briefcase designed by Japanese designer, Takumi Shimamura. Made of ecological thinned Japanese cedar, it would make an ideal Fathers Day gift or Christmas gift. It’s designed for Laptops/Notebooks, and features sturdy canvas edges, a leather covered handle, double zippers, and inner pockets. I like the natural wood grain look. The briefcase is available at Boys to Men gifts for $280.00

PF Flyers have been making shoes for over 50 years, but don’t expect them to go out of business anytime soon, because their 2007 men’s collection is a hit. The collection features different shoe styles, colors, and materials. This time around their inspiration came from traditions of craft and cultured materials of New England. Classic sneaker bones become the foundation for best -in-class leathers and fine textiles from around the globe. More info and pics here>>

Shoe Picnic & A Fatboy Beanbag

Posted Friday, August 17, 2007 at 07:32AM

Shoes can be expensive, and paying $600 for some Jimmy Choo, $150 for a pair of Air Jordan, and $1200 for some limited edition Nike air force ones is somehow crazy, especially if all you do is wear them and toss them into the closet. How about displaying your shoe collection in a glass case, just like trophies and other accolades in your living room. Well, Hyun Jung Lee has designed a ‘Shoe Picnic’ idea for you to display your expensive collection. [yanko design]

Fatboy is known for it’s oversized beanbags, now they have an outdoor beanbag for $350. The 55” x 77” Fatboy is made of heavy denier polyester fabric, which has been treated with UV and coated with PVC. This makes it water/fade resistant. Ideal even for the little ones. When it gets dirty you can wipe it with a damp cloth. Other features include: two straps with large grommets and clips. The straps can be used for lugging, for providing a more defined seating position, and more back support. Available in various colors. [link]
