I have some neoprene however, I was looking for thin pouches I can wrap for minimal protection but still avoid scratches etc.  I found these.... they are great.

Micro-fiber will probably not protect lenses from banging each other when in a bag next to each other. One microfiber with other lenses in neoprene will probably work OK.

 

These are expensive lenses and as such I use the philosophy that it's better to over protect than get dented or scratched lenses/gear.

I used to store them in these leather pouches inside my pelican box at home but then everyone on this forum terrified me about fungus. So I took them out and put the pouches in a cupboard. Now I just keep them in the pelicase when at home, and when carrying them in my bag or traveling I wrap them in a neoprene wrap for protection.

Artisan & Artist cases are the best neoprene ones I've come across. They are serious & expensive cases for expensive Leica lenses. The bottoms have non slip surfaces as well as an interior section so the lens does not drop out unexpectedly. I also have and use Zing & Optech cases, but the A&A are the best.

 

Lou, your advice has hit the bullseye in the past, so I just ordered a couple of these from David Farkas...  amazing how hard it is to find A&A gear outside of Japan (and LeicaMiami).

 

thanks!
