Incase reveals new collection in collaboration with Ace Hotel

This week Incase announced yet another designer collaboration resulting in a collection of Apple-centric products. This time the big name tech brand partnered with the quirky Ace Hotel brand. While it may seem like an odd combination at first, a sleek mass-marketed tech brand and an eclectic indie-style hotel chain, we actually quite like the aesthetic of the products that the Incase for Ace Hotel collaboration has produced. Designed “for those who appreciate the virtues of both the digital and the analogue,” the collection merges Incase’s high-tech functionality and protection with the rough-hewn urban aesthetic that is the signature of every Ace Hotel branch. 

Inspired by classic pilot flight jackets, each piece is crafted with Original Wax cotton in a dark olive green with military-like details and bright orange accent linings. The collection includes a Duffel Bag, Shoulder Bag, 15″ laptop sleeve, Portfolio for iPad 2, and a snap-on case for the iPhone 4. Oversized zippers, seatbelt webbing, and faded letter branding complete the modern utilitarian look of each piece. The collection will be available exclusively at the Ace Hotel in New York through September, but will be available online at Incase starting October 10.

Update 10/28/24: This marks the beginning of our drill coverage for 2024's Black Friday shopping season, and all of the major brands have at least one great deal. While we're excited for what is to come, this is a fantastic start and there's really no reason to not go ahead and get prepped by buying something now.
If you're buying anything this Black Friday, there's a big chance you might want a drill/driver to go with it. A drill/driver is one part drill, one part (screw)driver and it can help out in many situations. For example, say you take part in one of these early Black Friday TV deals, you very well might want to wall mount it. Then, say you grab up an easy coffee maker from Keurig's early Black Friday deals. An extra side table in your study would sure go nice with that and a drill/driver could very well make the table's construction much easier.
Really, with so so many of your early Black Friday purchases, there might be a chance to pick up a cordless drill or driver and get to work. As such, we've compiled a list of the best cordless drill deals throughout Black Friday deals that are available now, so you can get a head start on prepping for the savings that are to come.
