This sleek G3 carbon Fiber Briefcase from Nikola Design & Technologies Inc. uses materials more commonly seen in the aerospace industry and the world of F1 motorsports racing. Chief designer, Nikola Knezevic chose to integrate CFRP, otherwise known as the carbon fiber-reinforced plastic, in the making of this attaché case.

The high weight-to-strength ratio of this carbon composite makes the briefcase light yet sturdy. Compared to an aluminium case, the G3 attaché is only about half as light. Each case also comes with a plate engraved with the owner’s name and serial number to add a personal touch. The hefty price tag of almost 400,000 yen or US$3,800, though, is another consideration.
