Soft cases ...
I was the one that started that thread ...
Here are some of my reasons:
1) Ever lugged 'hard' suitcases around as opposed to 'softer' ones?
Which do you like to handle?
2) Softer, not as fancy, cases are better for hustling and making
your opponent underestimate you.
3) They are lighter, and easier to handle. Ever lug a loaded 4 x 8 Porper
hard case around Vegas like I have. I had to go buy a car seatbelt pad
to help ease up on my poor shoulder.
4) Softer cases just seem warmer. Kind of like having a woman that
is soft with you, as opposed to having one that is cold with you.
5) Some of those 'leather' cases, the leather is so stiff, and getting
into the pockets is a hassle, and some are heavy and bulky.
6) Kind of like leather seats in a car, they look nice, but they are
cold in winter, and hot in summer, while good looking cloth
seats are just kind of the same all the time. Plus, if the right
choice is made, they as just as durable.
That's basically my reasons, besides I always take my cues inside,
never leave them in the car in the cold or heat. I don't mistreat
any of my equipment.
