Joint & Blunts Cases for Pre-Rolls

Packing pre-rolls, rolling joints and fashioning perfect blunts is the perfect way to get your fix while doing all the things you love: hiking, snowboarding, a night on the town, hanging out with your family, going to a show and many more.

But what do you do when you’ve packed up 5 dogwalkers full of dank for the day ahead but have no safe place to store them? Even if you’ve only got a single 2-gram fatty blunt set for later, you need somewhere safe to keep the goods during transport.

So what’s the plan? Adventure is calling and all you’re looking for is a safe place to store your stash while you’re doing your thing.

What do the pros do? If you pick up a pre-rolled joint or hemp wrap blunt off dispensary shelves, you’re probably going to be picking up joints and blunts packed in doob tubes or in some type of protective multi-pack to keep their precious pre-roll cargo safe during their journey from manufacturer to dispensary to consumer. So why not take a page from the experts and find your own personal pre-roll protector?

Enter: joint and blunt cases.

Joint cases protect, lock in freshness, and they’re a sleek and discreet way to keep your pre-rolls safe on the go. So let’s take a look at the simple yet invaluable accessory that has a place in every Stoner Kit to keep the goods protected from the elements and always ready for what the day brings.

Please Tell Me, I Need to Know; What is a Joint Case?

Through years of research on the pre-roll industry, we have deduced that a joint case is a case intended for joints that holds joints in a case. It’s a groundbreaking discovery that is revolutionizing the pre-roll accessories market.

Alright, but for real, blunt and joint cases are very practical and take the risk out of taking pre-rolls out for the day’s adventures. They come in many shapes, sizes, materials and structures, offering unique features and functionalities, like waterproofing, to add to their value.

Joint cases are sleek and stylish upgrades to stashing a few nugs or jays in an old Altoids tin, or back in the humble but reusable doob tube itself. Because while those can hold and protect a pre-roll, a good joint case is designed specifically for the purpose and looks good doing it.

What to Look For in Joint and Blunt Cases

When it comes down to it, joint cases exist to protect our pre-rolls from catastrophic damage like moisture, breaking, ripping or losing the filter. And let me tell you, trying to light up a broken joint after dealing with the frustration of having a broken, is… well, frustrating.

So let’s take a look at the factors and features of joints and blunt cases that are most important to keep an eye out when looking for your own pre-roll protector.

Security and Durability

First off, the most important factor: does the pre-roll case actually protect your joints and blunts?

If the container has a poor closing mechanism and pops open easily, you’re gonna have a bad time. Or if you have 5 half-grammers of the finest in a less-than-durable and you come to find your case has cracked and your pre-rolls aren’t salvageable, again, take that joint case straight to jail.

The integrity of your case is what separates a long-term winner from a short-term loser. Yes, a joint case with poor structural integrity can house your joints now, but if tossed in a crowded backpack, will it survive the hike? If you’re looking for a long-term solutions for safe pre-roll transport, you’ll want to focus your consideration on the materials used to form the joint holder.

Because let’s be real, we’re not looking for military grade impact-resistant technology, we just want our doobies safe and sound.

Materials and Construction

While most doob tubes and pre-roll multi-packs are made of plastic, glass, paper or tin, a joint case built to last will often be constructed with more resilient materials.

Remember in old westerns where the rugged cowpoke rides up on their faithful steed, pulls our a metal case full of heaters and lights up a stogie? That’s what we’re looking for, a thoughtfully designed case that can hold up over time.

While many joint cases use plastic as their main material, it's a better, sturdier plastic than the cheap, thin stuff used in doob tubes.

3D-printed plastic joint holders have also taken off lately, using all kinds of durable plastics with funny names like Acrylonitrile Butadiene Tryrene. Many plastic joint cases will feature a softer outer lining that helps absorb impact in the case of a fall or drop.

Metal cases, most often lightweight aluminum or high-grade aircraft aluminum, are functional and sturdy, offering a sleek look and feel that can be artfully designed to pair practicality with style. And the range of finishes available with metal joint cases is truly wicked, including polished, matte and engraved varieties.

But no matter the material used to make a joint case, sturdy construction is a must.

Size and Capacity

Today you might need a case to protect your kingsize 1-gram glass tipped blunt, but tomorrow, you could need 4 or 5 slots for a bundle of half-grammers you’re taking to the festival.

So size and design matter, and a little plamnning can Save Your Day.

Take the Sackville Bougie gold pre-roll case keychain: beautiful, functional and 100% aluminum. Perfect for a large blunt or joint and capable of holding a few mini joints, it’s a durable joint tube case keeps the goods safe while looking fly af in the process.

The design is posh and the size is functional for a kingsize jeezy-bleezy, but if you’re looking for a case that can hold more rolls for more seshes, a multi-slot joint holder like The Box from Funky Form can do the trick.

Multiple slots add a bit of bulk to a joint case, but there’s really no way around the laws of physics, is there?

Funky Form’s The Box holds 4 half-gram pre rolls and includes a BIC lighter holder, one of many features we’ll touch on shortly, while their Mini Box holds 4 mini dogwalkers and a mini BIC lighter.

It’s all in the forethought. If you’re the baddie who always supplies the blunt, a single kingsize case can do the trick, but if you’re lookin to pack a bunch and keep them safe, consider opting for a higher capacity case.

Waterproof and Smell Proof

While a pre-roll mangled from a lack of protection in a backpack sucks, a drenched blunt that you had in a case specifically to protect it is a gut punch. A waterproof joint case not only protects your pre-rolls from liquids, but also creates a more airtight seal that locks in freshness.

Having a joint case that is completely waterproof and can protect your joints is like having your iPhone in an OtterBox compared to being naked. And we all know how that goes.

And since we’re talking about proofing, we should touch on the stinky elephant in the room: weed is LOUD!, aka, very-very smelly. A smellproof joint case does the opposite of waterproofing, instead of keeping water out, it keeps the green goddess aroma in. That’s a very welcome feature in a joint case, especially for those who dabble in a region where laws frown upon marijuana...

Design and Features

Functional or fashionable? Why not both?

Blunt cases and joint holders can come in some wicked designs, and any case worth its weight in salt need to have functionality along with it.

Pre-roll tube cases can look like simple tubes or beautifully designed, functional accessories. Joint cases that hold multiple pre-rolls can vary in design even more, with different materials, closing mechanisms, slots, shapes, designs and features.

Some can look like a power bank that you charge a phone with while others look like Patrick Bateman’s business card holder from “American Psycho.” A classic metal cigarette holder offers a timeless look and high capacity while 3D printed cases can have the modern look and feel of, well, something that’s been 3D printed.

There are tons of styles and designs of joint cases on the market, but one thing you should never have to sacrifice is function. Because if your joints case doesn’t function to protect your pre-rolls, then, really, none of the innovations, developments and added features matter.

What features? We’re talking crush- and shockproof shells, internal multi-joint inserts, lighter slot, keychains, recycled materials, intricate designs, personalization and child-resistant enclosures.

With joints being the preferred method of consuming cannabis, you can only imagine the range of styles and designs that are out there.

Final Thoughts on Pre-Roll Joint and Blunt Cases

“Hell yeah, the joint broke,” said no one ever.

While you don’t roll a joint with a joint case or light a blunt with a joint case, the practicality of a joint case cannot be dismissed. With the time spent rolling or packing and the anticipation of a heavenly pre-roll (or four) building, the last thing you need to encounter is two half-pre-rolls.

Joint cases are a must for the active stoner and there are more variations and styles of pre-roll cases than ever before, so there’s something to go with every look. Whether you’re considering a sleek gold-aluminum tube-shaped keychain case from Sackville or a waterproof, multi-joint case like the Funky Form Mini Box, the sense of calm knowing your precious pre-roll is safe is second to none.

So yes, the basic doob tube will work as a joint holder in a pinch, but you’re not basic and your joint holder shouldn’t be either. Level up. Don’t just protect your pre-rolls, look good doing it.
