The Furoshiki wrap which is made from urethane, evolved from the traditional Japanese wrapping cloth of the same name (風呂敷, furoshiki). The traditional furoshiki is a sheet of cloth used to wrap and transport all types of goods (wrapping variations). It’s a nice simple idea but I don’t personally see much use in it since there isn’t a good handle or shoulder strap. However, I think it would be useful for protecting a laptop inside a backpack or another larger laptop bag. The Furoshiki will fit laptops up to 15.4†and comes in black and yellow. If you happen to be in Kamakura-city Japan you can visit the 9brand studio and shop; to purchase the Furoshiki in the US you can get it from Tortoise in Venice, CA for $88. ~ Comment on this product.
