Black Rock Originals was created in the Summer of 2014 by two guys that decided to dedicate themselves to “setting the standard” in a fairly new and primitive market of mobile stash cases. Founders Nick & Tommy out of Denver, CO were constantly out and about and constantly stuck trying to find a way to safely carry their stash with discretion and protection in mind. Three years later, the Black Rock Originals Safety Case is a hit product, and Hotbox is here to give you a closer look. Oh, and if the brand already rings a bell, you may have caught wind of their partnership with pro-Skier Tanner Hall in 2016 to release the SKIBOSS collection, consisting of custom papers and a grinder card specifically designed to meet the athlete’s demands when he’s both on and off the slopes.

Discreet Travel Companion for Stoners
At first glance, the Safety Case is a very discreet travel companion. It’s nice and light, the exterior is a very unassuming and durable black rubberized hard shell that, If I didn’t know any better, would definitely assume to be holding a pair of glasses. Real low-key stuff here. So far, the case has also been virtually smell proof and seemingly water resistant, something I would think essential in building a case to be used on the Colorado slopes.
The interior of the case is lined with a soft fabric and has a few small straps for holding papers, vaporizer pens, concentrate cases, and anything else you could try to pack into a 5x2x.8” space. Usually, these sorts of cases tend to either have no compartments or too many. Prior to the Black Rock Originals Safety case, I used a few different cases that had the same shortcomings— It has a couple straps in it, but it doesn’t facilitate the space needed for the products that I’m actually using. This case, on the other hand, is incredibly versatile and can be configured in quite a few different ways.
Black Rock Originals Offers More Space & Useful Tools
The case comes already equipped with a few materials, too. Most notably the BRO “pebble” silicone containers, made specifically to fit perfectly in the case without taking up too much room. On that note, there truly is a deceiving amount of space in this case for virtually anything you could try to fit in your pocket. The Black Rock Originals Safety Case can hold up to 4 pebbles, a pen, a one-hitter, a dabber/poker tool, grinder card, crutches, papers, AND the BRO mini silicone mat, all at once without being overstuffed. And best of all, the BRO Safety Case is as simple as it is to whip out and utilize as it is to tuck away, all in a quick second. Impressive. Black Rock Originals also offers a 100% satisfaction guarantee and a 2-year warranty on all of their products, including the Safety Case.
The Black Rock Originals Safety Case confirms that big things really do come in small packages. This product is Hotbox Approved, as we already decided before this product even launched. We met up with Black Rock Originals back in March of 2015 at the Denver Glass and Vape Show to talk about their new flagship product and their successful preorders. Luckily you can pick up the case right now here, and check out our interview with Nick & Tommy below:
