After searching for weeks for a case for my Ety's and Westone plugs, I checked out the Pelican #1010 Micro based on the recommendation from DJGeorgeT in this thread. I bought two so that I could conduct a few high-tech stress tests on one to see how it would hold up to the beating it would surely take from my chronic clumsiness. Test #1 consisted of placing the case on a hard surface and standing on it (I'm 200 lbs): Result = Pass. For test #2, I submerged the case in dirty sink water: Result = Pass (in fact it kept floating to the top). Verdict: this thing is a tank. In fact, its only real drawback is that it's overkill.
(Above)The 1010 comes in four solid colors, I chose black. It's 4 1/2" X 3" X 1 3/4" on the interior.
(Above) I opted for the Pick N' Pluck foam insert (item #1012). VERY snug (post Pickin' N' Pluckin')
(Above) Also comes in clear with choice of colored liner and hinge.
(Above) On the clear models, the rubber insert can be removed. The case will still shut tightly, but it is no longer waterproof.
The case lists for around $12.00 and B&H Photo has it for $6.81 plus shipping.
