Is it true that custom carrying cases are overall better than an off-the-shelf carrying case? Off-the-shelf products are not necessarily bad or built poorly, but that does not mean they provide the same levels of safety that custom carrying cases offer. Think about it like this: what is the difference between an off-the-rack suit and a custom-tailored suit? Custom made garments and carrying cases fit in all the right places. All the nooks and crannies are accounted for, and the customization leads to perfect fits. Off-the-rack products might fit well, but they will never be perfect. When you leave room for any level of imperfections, you will find your gear is not as safe as it should be.
Custom carrying cases are designed with custom foam inserts, which is one of the most critical aspects of creating a perfect fit. First, foam is chosen to meet the needs of the gear being carried. Various types of foams are available to meet the exact needs of carriers. For instance, when moving objects that have a medium to heavyweight, like a handgun, black PE foam is commonly used. If you need a softer foam that is perfect for delicate objects, like crystal stemware, Charcoal Ester Foam is the right custom foam insert for you.
Designing and building custom carrying cases takes more time, energy, and money than purchasing off-the-shelf cases. Keep in mind that what you save in time and money is lost in the quality of protection offered by your case. Make the smart choice for your expensive gear.
