Considerations & Trade-offs

  • The case is sold with foam inserts that must be customized to your gear, so it is not a ready-to-use fit out of the box.
  • Its protection features are aimed at sensitive equipment, which can add bulk compared with softer storage options.
  • Padlocks are not included, so the two lock tabs require separate hardware if you want to secure the case.
  • Buoyant up to 30 lbs., so flotation is limited by load and should not be assumed once the case is fully packed.
