The success of developing take-away pizza bags was the catalyst for Fredic Pinel to raise the funds to create Pinel&Pinel, an accessories maker specializing in trunks. Trunks, once a way of the rich (well it still is) was popular as the affluent would take exclusive cruises on huge ocean liners. This rendition of the Pinel&Pinel trunk is adopted for the safe storage and display of sneakers. Unsure of the official association with Air Jordan, this particular trunk includes a Jumpman symbol and autograph of Jordan himself. Twenty three spots are available with room for the Air Jordan XX3 to spare.

Check the clip over at Youtube.
