Class isn't yet over for me, which means I could still get a lot of mileage out of the Porter & Swagger M.E.T.A.L. Collection. These backpacks and wallets are sure to attract attention and can more than likely double as weapons in emergency situations.
Studs and spikes are making a huge comeback, appearing on everything from shoes to corsets. The Porter & Swagger M.E.T.A.L. Collection continues the renaissance of studs and spikes. These backpacks and wallets look damn good too. The sky is the limit here. I fully expect to see studded and spiked underwear sooner rather than later.
