This skeleton backpack is just too cool, found at the Roor Shop Amsterdam. (h/t Slits for finding this gem!)

Roor Skeleton Backpack

This is obviously a one-off display piece, I’m not even sure if it is a proper pipe. Though I have to guess with this being a Roor shop showpiece, that yes, it is functional. I have been to Amsterdam several times, but never to the Roor Shop. Have any of our readers visited this shop? Can you tell us your firsthand experiences? This place is now definitely on my bucket list and it looks like you can rent a bong next time you visit too. Smart business.

I wonder when will we see the Roor Shop Denver or the Roor Shop Seattle?

Roor Shop Amsterdam

Here’s what the Roor Shop Amsterdam has to say about itself:

ROOR Shop Amsterdam is a unique Glass shop located in the center of Amsterdam, The Flagship store for the Famous German ROOR brand. visit us at: ROOR Shop Amsterdam, Sint Nicolaastraat19 1012 NJ AMSTERDAM

Once again ROOR has established its dominancy in the industry by transforming its vision of a Concept Shop in Amsterdam into a reality. That once again the individual conversion to stylish presentation of uniqueglass artworks was the driving force is easy to see for anyone who sets foot in the ROOR shop. The comfortable atmosphere that has been created by the interior design and architecture as well as the specially developed lighting does not simply invite you to shop, but also invites you to take an extraordinary side trip into the metropolis of Amsterdam where next to the proven basic models you can marvel at pieces that were specially designed for this multicultural location. The ROOR concept was brilliantly converted to this Concept Shop and has yet again set the tone for this industry, so as to fully live up to lovers of glasswork. Simply put; ROOR – PURE SMOKE KULTURE.

At the ROOR Shop Amsterdam you can view the range of available products and rent one of our special ROOR’s for the duration of your stay.This shop is the result of years of unique custom manufacturing, from the ingenious smoke-cooling diffusor slides, chillums and ROOR pieces that are unique in the world to date. ROOR all started almost two decades ago when Martin Birzle – a glass blower and individualist with the right combination of craftmanship, audacity and stamina – created aesthetic functional custom pieces. Due to his know how and his interest in his customers, he was able to create the ideal ROOR piece for every type of person, and named this unique combination of function and design ROOR. The collection of extremely thick-walled pieces hand-blown out of the purest borosilicate glass meet with the approval of the quality oriented smoker.
