Umbra Rolz Portable Chess/Checkers Set

Portable board games always feel a little cheapened. Either the pieces are too small or the game itself isn’t really portable. Well interior design company Umbra has succeeded in making an on-the-go functional and playful chess/checkers set. The ingenious design uses an internal storage pipe to house the checkers pieces (which have the chess characters screen printed on). And, the board itself with a vegan leather mat and raised wooden base rolls up into a compact cylinder held by an integrated carrying case and strap. The end result is a truly portable game that doesn’t sacrifice form or function. Whether you leave it out at home or bring a game of chess on the road, the Umbra Rolz is a brilliant rendition of a chess/checkers board.
