You can use a Vanguard camera case if you're willing to play with the foam inserts to make a headphone-shaped indentation. That's what I used for a case for ATH-W11JPN.

MoodySteve, that's exactly what I want it for. I just bought a mint pair of W11JPN and I want o hard case to protect them.

musicman59, the case that I got was the Vanguard Dominator 4 and it's literally the perfect size for Audio Technica woodies. It cost under $30 shipped.

It comes with a foam block in the bottom with that's slit into little sections - with some creative removal of these sections it's not too hard to carve out a headphone shaped niche and also a pocket for the cable. Add a piece of fabric on top and you end up with a case that's sturdy and attractive - quite similar to the ATH-W2002 case. I prefer the appearance over the W5000 case.

If all you want is a replacement of the original you should be able to buy one from AT USA. When I was looking to get one to possibly replace mine they quoted me a price of $50.
