Hard case goggle bag/box

[Richard (Boots)]

Why does noone do a hard shell Goggle case anymore ?
Something like the empire one . I've seen the Exalt one but that doesnt stop your Goggles from being crushed .
Exalt do a full hopper case and a bottle case but there goggles case is only a halfy.
Seeing as Goggle's are the most important put of your kit and aren't cheap does it not make sense .

Good shout, I have not long bought a Exalt goggle case. I keep it on top, in my kit bag to stop it getting damaged. It also could be a bit bigger, only holeds 3 lens.

I've always thought hard cases for equipment seems unnecessary. The abuse it's going to take on the field is magnitudes worse than what it's going to be subject to in a bag in the boot of a car.

If you are really keen on an equivalent look for a helmet bag / box

Something like this

Goggles don't like being crushed and when your 3 up In a car the cloth bag your £100+ eyewear comes with don't cut it. I've seen helmet cases both motorcycle s and cycles one is huge and the other too small . Just hoping someone in manufacturing sees this and starts making them again .

I have a couple of the Empire ones and dimensions are similar to this one (which I also own) - https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B000W30794/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1
However that is currently unavailable, so I posted the alternative above

I feel the reason these are not manufactured now is that most people don't have the room or need for them in their existing kit bag. Normally you want to avoid scratching the lens, so the google bag is normally sufficient protection

Hence the demand was too small, I'm not sure that this will ever change, so I think your options are to consider using something not specifically designed for paintball.

Pretty much because for any specific item there is a finite market

Exalt brought out their case (though not hard) and there hasn't been a sudden influx of everybody buying it

The majority of paintball gear bags have a goggle section

As @Jacob.007 points out, he uses the exalt lens case, but for him he would prefer it to take more than 3 lenses
For many people there's no point in a larger lens case, 3 are plenty (4 including one on the goggles). Clear, tinted and dark cover every eventuality should you need to change lens

Shortly after I began I would carry a spare lens, on punter games where head shots didn't count I would put my head out further and be more likely to take a lens hit. If I wanted I could switch lens and have a perfectly clear lens bunch easier and quicker then cleaning a big hit
Then I'd get more goggles and loan out or use others as a spare to swap, I would regularly get new lenses until the bill to change for all my goggles escalated

Rather than buying more special luggage it's just as easy to use a microfibre bag (or make one) keeping the lens safe then either pack it in a decent bag or I'm more likely to carry my goggles separately, transporting on my car parcel shelf and hang them up when home
