What I would like to see in response to this thread, is what/how you use your case, what you look for in a case, why you have chosen to own what you own, and a quick picture of the bag you ACTUALLY use day to day.
There is no reason to take this thread to a negative place, so let's try to keep it positive and stick on point. I think we can all agree to disagree on interior design. I for one like the Volturi Case way of thinking, but I am biased just like the rest of you. I would like to discuss the other parts of construction, such as feet, handles, weight, egonomics, artistic merit, and quality, etc.

I wanted a case that offers the best protection I can find whether it's over kill or not. At the same time, I want something that is created in an uncompromising artistic fashion as well.
When on the move, I generally hold my case in my hand, whether by the top handle or side handle. The shoulder strap for me is mostly there for looks. I do however like a comfy side handle. The top I generally don't hold onto a lot, but it definitely comes in handy!
I like solid footing that lifts the base of the case slightly off the ground. I usually lean my case up against something when not in use, and I like to keep it off the floor just in case there it's sticky or wet.
I HAVE to have a big pocket, or big pockets. I carry a lot of junk with me. (tip tools, dice, change, extension/jump handle, gloves, glasses, you name it and I got it for the most part.) Now with carrying all this stuff, I also need the ability to carry an extra cue every now and then. I bring work to and from Keith often, so I need a little extra space, atleast 3x5 case. My current is 3x6. I also like a case that doesn't weigh a ton since I carry all this extra gear.
The above are the functional features. A lot of cases have the above and I wanted all of this, plus something with a bit more expression. I went in search of a case maker, that could offer all of the above PLUS make a case that looked as well as it performed. For those reasons, I ended up at Volturi Cases. I jam on his designs and skill. After speaking with him, I realized he is my kind of people, and the price was right, so here I am.
Here's a quick pic of my "JH" case.
I really would like to keep this positive so lets keep the bickering out and stick to talking about why we love OUR case, and not why we dislike others.
best,
Justin Hanson
