Suggestions For Traveling With A Bunch Of Sunglasses

What model Pelican case do you use that holds those 22 pairs?

Whats the pick and pluck foam, where on the pelican website can find it. Is there a way to get them to cut foam in rectangles?

There are 2 companies I have ordered from. One is pelican and the other is seahorse. They both make these ypes of cases, and the seahorse company is less expensive. Pick and pluck foam allows you to pick out "cubes" of foam and design you own fit. Similar to large professional camera cases.

Pelican Case 1450 with Foam - Black from Pelican-Case.com

If you review the attached link you will see that the foam is removed so the item can have a custom fit.

So i have the goggle array case for when i want to take a lot of Oakley's away with me but I'm thinking what other way is a good way to take just a few pairs? I'm thinking is the universal soft goggle case a good idea? Looks like you could fit a few pair in there?

If anyone has one of these cases could you stick a few pairs of shades in your goggles case see how many you can safely fit in it?


Thanks Jay

If customs notice them you'll probably be asked to prove if you bought them here before you left the UK or be asked to pay the import duty and then the VAT irrespective of the reason you are bringing them here.

will it be better then to ship them via courier with insurance?
