My only reservation is that the outer covering of Domke wraps tends to stick to the velcro of movable dividers, a minor inconvenience. My usual rough and ready state of dress obviates the need for ornamentation, so no necessity for the soft case on that score. Regards, Michael >>Does it offer much protection?
