Something isn't right with the web site. Select the roof prism case and it will only let you order a porro prism one at that price.

I ordered a porro prism case this morning.
Maybe they are out of stock on the roof prism?

The Snug Rug bino case arrived today, via FedEx.
The driver commented on how light the box was.
It is very light, but seems to be well built.
I've heard some comments on how the YKK zipper is weak?
Truthfully, the zipper looks fine to me?
I guess if you 6'8" & 275 pounds.....then the zipper is weak.
I put a set of Bausch & Lomb 7x35 Zephyr's in the bino case along with its leather strap.....it fit fine.
I also tried a larger set of Fuji Meibo 7x50s.....again, fit fine.
I have a second case coming, so I'm happy to see my purchases of these bino cases were justified.
