Can Designs

For functionality the the old Gotlandssnus tins. For appearance, the the Old Lucky Strike lös tins. For current production, none are especially functional, but I'll give the style nod to GN in general, and the Islay snus in particular.

Well stated...as Karl from Slim Blade would say, "I like the way you talk"....

Agree with X here.

Gotlandssnus tins were the best. They were air tight, all plastic, and the fit was so good Snus rarely went dry. Plus they were still 50 grams while all SMs went down to 45.

For looks the winner has to be Lucky Strike or the old Landstroms tins.

The OLD Skruf Cans were Boss!! Now I would vote for Prima Fint.

Catch Pure Mint (the original can)..the snus was average imo but the can was one of my all time favorites...sweet metal can.



I will tell you the can I don't like...General Mint Snus can. Too Austin Powers looking. Kind of embarrassed to pull that tin out of my pocket...

Gustavus.....the design just before the one they use now was pretty sweet......

Islay is the coolest new can to me.

My regular brand ain't real flashy, but old school nice, Röda Lacket:

This is kind of a goofy topic, but presentation is important. I'm curious about what can/label designs the members here love/hate.

My favorite all-day, go-to snus has one of the worst looking labels imaginable. THUNDER.

The font and lightening bolts are corny as hell, but the kicker is the slogan: "Feelin' the Thunder!" Notice that I'm not just "feeling" it... I'm FEELIN' it. Ugh.

My wife digs the design of the Jakobsson's can, but they just look a little to Grandpa to me (no offense intended to any actual grandpas on this board). Although, the inset compass is really cool.

The American general cans have a nice look, but I miss the shiny foil labels.

Oden's cans look totally METAL ( \m/ ) for better or worse. I do like the little mascot on the No. 3 and Pure Wintergreen. Looks like some misplaced ancient Egyptian god.

IMO, I think Skruf has it on lock as far as can/label design goes. Sleek, modern and classy.

What are your favs? What embarasses the hell out of you? (I peel off the Thunder label every time I open a new can. And that secret inset tobacco leaf underneath is class!)
