WANTED: Hard Case for Eyeglasses.
August 7, 2006 6:55 PM Subscribe
I'm looking for the equivalent of a flight case for eyeglasses.
My eyeglasses came with a terrific hard-shell case that keeps them snug and protected; but the hinge has become slightly bent after 4 years' use, and I want to find a replacement. I called the store where I bought them, but no luck.
They're Cartier frames, so obviously, I'd like the sort of case I could safely throw underneath a truck without risking what's inside. Sunglass Hut carries a decent hard-shell case with a rubberized exterior that's relatively cheap; but eyeglasses are smaller than sunglasses, so I need a case manufactured specifically for eyeglasses. I figured, since lots of high-end accessory brands sell leather cases for eyeglasses, there must be someone selling a top-drawer, bulletproof hard case.
Can anyone point me in a helpful direction?

JC Penney has a Silver Rhodium Plated Engravable Eyeglass Case for $21
Here's a custom plated case for $35
An aluminum case for under $10.
My RayBans came in something similar to this and it's on sale for $5
Finally, if it's good enough for a jobsite, it's probably pretty dang durable.
