kevlar bass trunk

Hey
I'm newly registered but I've been reading on this site for a while and I hope you all can help me.
I'm mainly an orchestra musician and I'm looking to buy a trunk for some extensive traveling I'm about to do. The thing is I saw what seemed to be the perfect box made of Kevlar (solid, light and well thought out at first view) in Double Bassist magazine, but I don't know anyone who owns one or who's used one. I'm away right now and don't have the name handy, but it was on the inside cover of the zine.
Anybody out there ever try them?
thanks.

The Kolstein Bass trunk or the Gage Bass Case are your best bets. They both run about 2700-2900$ US. Expensive, but worth it. I have a Kolstein Trunk myself and I love it!
