They have a brand new iPad sleeve design called the Tourniquet iPad Sleeve. It is simple and, no surprise here, the leather is gorgeous.

As they explain,

Simple. That’s where we wanted to be with the Tourniquet iPad Sleeve. Safe to say, I think we have arrived. The Tourniquet is a single thick cut of wax finish, brown Horween Leather. Created with the “new” iPad in mind, the Tourniquet Sleeve protects from various bumps and bruises and will snugly cradle any generation iPad with or without a smart cover. Each sleeve features a laser etched logo with production number. No two pieces are alike, life marks and other natural imperfections of the leather will occur.

At $110 these aren’t inexpensive but the leather and craftsmanship is fantastic and, because it is a sleeve, it won’t be outdated when Apple releases the iPad 4, I mean, NEW NEW iPad, next year. Details and pre-ordering here.

They are also offering the new 2 Face wallet in three different colors. The $85 wallet is simple and looks great. It is perfect for those who want to go minimalist but still need to carry a few cards and a bit of cash.

We wanted a wallet that could accommodate as much as a standard full-size bill fold while remaining comfortable for front ( or rear ) pocket carry. Deceitfully small, the 2 Face Wallet holds a multitude of items relative to its size. A total of 4 identical pockets on the interior and exterior will hold ½ folded cash or cards allowing for quick and secure access. Thick cut, matte black, Horween Leather body with Wicket & Craig Veg Tan Leather pockets. Each wallet features a laser etched logo with production number. No two pieces are alike, life marks and other natural imperfections of the leather will occur. You can pre-order here on the company site.

Having a father who was heavily involved in early laser and fiber-optical research, Dan grew up surrounded by technology and gadgets. Dan’s father brought home one of the very first video games when he was young and Dan remembers seeing a “pre-release” touchtone phone. (When he asked his father what the “#” and “*” buttons were his dad said, “Some day, far in the future, we’ll have some use for them.”) Technology seemed to be in Dan’s blood but at some point he took a different path and ended up in the clergy. His passion for technology and gadgets never left him.
