Thoughts?

Elephant skin? freakin scientologist freak.

 

[aizan]

elephant skin...that's...not right.

 

[Shac]

elephant skin...that's...not right.

You are darned right it isn't - elephant numbers have dropped dramatically over the last 10 years.

I won't comment further - on the whole luxury concept

The copyediting of the text is terrible. The bags are terrible. A man will carry some photographic equipment in one of those bags? I don’t think so. I think the name suits the product perfectly. Interesting his daughter is nowhere to be seen next to these awful things.

 

[al1966]

Did I read correctly 20K for a bag? also are elephants not an endangered species? It all seems wrong on so many levels.

 

[karateisland]

Yikes. I can't really add much, except to say that this is obscene.

 

[Huss]

Makes sense that Overgaard is into leather seeing his new - and super conservative - wife was a bondage queen.

he's a scientologist? haha

 

[ruby.monkey]

Camera bags without shoulder straps. Genius.

 

[aizan]

basically, the worst element of the leica photography community.

i’m going to take back my approval of the stealth edition monochrom. it’s stuff like that that fostered an extra wealthy customer base for leica. this is the end result.

just wait for the rational explanations for why this is all ok start rolling in.

 

[ptpdprinter]

Leica seems to attract this sort of excess. As intended for a luxury brand. It elevates dentistry to a whole new level. Obscene.

It's good to see the elephant skin bag has a 'chewing gum' pocket. This shows the type of client the bag is designed for.

Totally disgusting, Thorsten puts out some great content but this is over the line. I have unsubscribed and sent my views to him directly. jc

 

[michaelwj]

Looks awesome, but I would also like some seal pup skin inserts, my camera really deserves the best. And since we’re skinning elephants anyway, can I also have the buckles made out of ivory?

Seriously, ***. What a joke. Are people really that shallow and thin skinned that they need a bag made out of elephants and alligators?

 

[MikeL]

Wasn’t this supposed to happen after the swarms of locusts?

 

[Ko.Fe.]

Elephants have status of protected anymals at customs regulations in EU.
We discous this idiot actions earlier today at LUF. One mod reported about him to some authorities and so did I to couple of Elephant protecting organizations.
Please do the same.

 

[ktmrider]

Obscene and ridiculous!!!

 

[fireblade]

Wrong on all levels.

 

[Emile de Leon]
