Take a few punctured bike tubes, and you have a big spaghetti mess. But the folks at Green Guru Gear know how to craft those inner tubes into useful objects such as pannier bags, messenger bags and wallets. Now Green Guru has turned to Kickstarter for the company’s next product: a tablet case sized for an iPad.
The case uses Green Guru’s signature stitched inner tubes to craft a case that has a pocket that fits an iPad with a slim cover or keyboard case. It also has a pocket to fit gear such as cables, pens, a snack, or a few other items. The bag has multiple strap points so you can set the strap up to comfortably sling the bag over your shoulder and keep it secure while biking, or just walking around. When you don’t need the strap it will fit conveniently in the outer pocket.
Green Guru turned to kickstarter in order to get the funds to do prototyping and development, as well as to pay for tooling costs and production. Various tiers of Kickstarter donations will get you the tablet sling plus other Green Guru products.
