Vidpro TC-45 Tripod Carrying Case - Heavy Duty Nylon Bag with Shoulder Straps and Handles - Compact Case with Full Length Zippered Closure Plus External Pocket Fits Tripod with Head up to 45 Inches

I purchased two of these because the boxes for my two Expo jumbo aluminum telescoping easels were falling apart, and I needed a not-too-expensive storage and transport container that would fare better than cardboard.Turns out, I could have fit them both in one! Very roomy, sturdy zipper, seems made to last from a pretty tough fabric (maybe Cordura?). Full-length zipper makes loading and unloading a breeze (especially compared to my old end-load cardboard boxes 😂). Lightly padded, which is good for both the objects inside and the humans outside.I am keeping them both -- I can see them coming in handy for carrying all sorts of awkward oblong items. They look great and work well!

I use this to haul all my mike, guitar and boom stands around to gigs. As a weekend warrior, playing out in the clubs in my area, I needed a way to transport my various stands and booms and other items in a sturdy dependable case. Having used this close to a year now, I am happy to report it still looks new and has had no rips, torn straps or any other damage I have suffered with other bags.

Despite what the ads will have you believe, long-time professional photographers aren't really into carry bags and cases. When you shoot for a living you don't have time to hassle with such things, the only time my gear is packed up is when I travel, and then it's in solid secure anvil cases, not fancy nylon bags. Weather protection isn't that much of an issue because it's out job to shoot out in the weather. But that's not a hard no. For example I have a nice little Manfrotto light duty tripod that I like to have with me and those things cost a fortune. I feel I'm paying that price for them to be able to take the nicks and scrapes of life but yet why not try to prolong its life. A bag like this comes in great for that and through the warehouse deals I snagged it for eight bucks. So why not?HEAVY DUTY BUT NOT HEAVYThis thing came folded in three and it was so lightweight I thought they made a mistake, but no it's actually made of a very heavy canvas-like material with a satin-like interior so my tripod slips in and out easily. The zipped is solid industrial weight and slides easily. There is a large side pocket that can always come in handy. There are two web carry handles and a longer web shoulder strap. It only weighs a few ounces but it is just the right amount of protection.PROS AND CONSAll of the above are pros. The cons are more like suggestions, not issues. For example while I don't believe a tripod case has to be padded I would have liked to see some at either end, not as much for protection of the tripod (although you never want to bang around a precision tripod head too much) but so the case doesn't rip when the tripod slides from end to end. The other minor suggestion is that the web handles are adequate and having s shoulder strap can be useful for some people, I would like the shoulder strap removable. I never use it and it gets in the way so I may just cut it off.YES NO MAYBEAt the price it was no contest but even at full price I have found this company to always outshine similar brands. There are fancy pretentioous cases and cheap thin nylon ones. This one is just right.

I have owned for a few weeks and use to hold a pair of Ultimate SP90B Subwoofer Poles. Works great with room to spare on length. Put foam for "end caps" on both ends and helps snug them up a bit during transport. Seem decently well made bags for the money. Will update if anything major changes, otherwise a decent purchase.

For the price, it's hard to beat. Will see how well it holds up. But just looking at how it's made and the zipper works fine, I ordered another one.

I needed a cheap bag for my cheap microphone stands and this turned out to be perfect. I have 4 sub $20 mic stands that collapse down to about 31" length. I was originally going to buy two of these 35" bags, but figured I would see if they would fit in one. It is definitely a tight squeeze, but they do all four fit, and this bag has both handles and a shoulder strap. No complaints for twelve bucks.Pros:Low costNo obvious design or manufacturing flawsGood amount of space - length as advertisedMaterials are fine for a twelve dollar bagCons:Not really any padding, so I will have to be careful and not throw this bag around the trunkZipper does not feel great, but it works and seems appropriate for this price pointI just got the bag a couple of days ago and haven't traveled with it, so I can't speak to durability at all. Also, with no padding, I'm probably tempting fate to have all four mic stands in the bag banging against one another, and pressing up against the outside of the bag. I almost bought a different bag with two padded internal sleeves, but it was twice the price, would only hold three of the stands, and I'm not that rough on my equipment.
