What to look for in a case

[logan37]

Herf a dors, Otter Box, Xikar's etc...they all do a good job so lon as your not leaving them inside of your car on a hot summer afternoon! Bulky yes, but they get the job done and protect your babies until your ready to cannibalize 'em

Why don't you post an intro so we can get to know you.

how many smokes are you wanting to take with you?

If you're getting something like a 3 fingered case, and you want to keep humidity in it, I'd get a telescoping one that sort of locks down when you slide the lid over it. That will keep it air tight. The sponges are really the only stock option in those kinds of cases, which are crappy but you could always use beads out of THE PUCK tied up in a bit of panyhose or you could put a water pillow in there. Remember, if you take them out of the humidor and put them in an air tight case, they will stay fresh for a week or two if you don't open the case.

Otterboxes are also a good choice for transporting more cigars.

if you only need to take a couple with you, you may want to look into getting a couple of steel/aluminum tubes.

I've done all sorts of stuff from fancy leather cases, to plastic bags to the otter box.

the otter box is the solution. I have a 15 count and a 2 count. The 15 usually has 8 to 10 cigars and a humi pack andsits in the car. The 2 count gets smokes I want to take hunting, fishing or just out when I want a cigar or two just in case.

Yep, the Otterbox style are the best, I have two five count and one 15 count, all serve the purpose perfectly. One of the fivers has litteraly been run over by a truck with only a few scratches to show for it

Hmm, those Otterboxes look remarkably similar to my Xtreme. Hate the name, but I love the case.

The otterbox seems the way to go for a longer trip. I'm thinking more of when going to a party or the golf course. I've been eyeing some of the leather ones on cbid but am not in any great hurry. Everytime I get some extra cash I seem to end up with more cigars
