Carhartt Portable Turntable

Last I checked Carhartt was in the tough man clothing business. But it turns out they’re getting trendy, really trendy. They’ve now teamed up with Vestax to produce a portable turntable, you know, the thing that plays those vinyl discs.
They claim that it can operate at a 90 degree angle, which means flush to a wall…I’m skeptical. Skepticism aside, it’s got a line in and out jack as well as a USB input for converting your records to a digital medium. And for all your DJs out there you’ll be pleased to hear that it can run on batteries and includes pitch control and master level fader.
I’ve got no clue where you can buy it, but it will supposedly be out this December.

They’re tough-man clothes in the U.S., but in the rest of the world, they sell trendy streetwear. Think hip-hop and skateboarding. This comes from their international site, so I don’t think it’s really meant to appeal to their U.S. market. (What would Todd Palin do with this?!)
