Steal the Style – The Zero Halliburton Look Alike

The Samsonite Aluminum Attache – $149.95

The Zero Halliburton aluminum attache is probably the only business case on the planet with a reputation.  It’s appeared in over 200 movies and TV shows, and it’s usually carried by a serious guy who should probably be taken seriously.

C’mon.  If you were sitting next to a guy who had one of these and he went to open it up, wouldn’t you half expect it to be packed with cash, a weapon, or both?

Samsonite makes a much more affordable version.  Aluminum exterior, basic no messing around interior, metal handle, and feet.  It’s quite the “tribute” at less than half the price.

But would you carry it?  And if you would, would you just splurge on the real deal for fear of coming across a real Zero Halliburton one day while carrying your Samsonite, only to have the Zero Halliburton open up a can on you and your wannabe case?  If there’s a briefcase out there that could lay a beat down on someone, the Zero Halliburton is it.
