Best eyeglass cases for women according to redditors

I use a folding glasses case when I travel - I love how it folds up to almost nothing when I don't need to use it.

​

Here's what I use.

I've got prescription glasses with photochromic lenses. They're on my face from dawn to dusk and I hang 'em from an attic loop in my tent at night. But, I'm old and can get away with looking like a douchebag.

I suspect that you won't be happy with the protection of a neoprene case. But, you might give a flying fisherman a look (68g and you can chop off that hook to save some gs).

Gorruck 34L GR2 Coyote Tan - a good bag, heavy, uncomfortable, probably give it to my grandchildren in like 50 years

Flip Flops - generic things

Bigblue 28W solar charger - very good, can charge my battery up during the day if i leave it in the sun which I've never really done honestly

Jakemy hardware tools - seamed useful? i've never needed this

Army glove shells - i thought i used these a lot and were indistructable but now that i think of it, i don't use them that often and are probably pretty cheaply made.

Sharpie, pen, all weather notebook - probably should switch over to a fisher space pen...

Straws - these are probably already broken.

Whistle - really really really loud

Fire-striker, matches, lighter - i'm not sure i have enough ways to start a fire

Fresnel lens - ok, now i have enough

LED flashlight - i used to go running in the middle of the night with this flashlight, its tiny

LED flashlight - this isn't the one i have but looks kinda similar? i don't remember where i got mine

Earbuds - generic cheap earbuds

Leatherman Surge - given to me by my wife for passing the bar. thanks wife!

First Aide kit - i put mine together from stuff i've stolen from friends houses whenever i go over and use the bathroom

playing cards - these look very similar to the ones i have, they are plastic so they won't get rained on

glasses/ sunglasses - i have really bad vision

personal hygiene kit - aahhhh dry shaving

Sawyer Mini / syringe, collapsible canteen (dirty), heavy duty straw - i've never used this

collapsible canteen (clean) - i've never used this either

sewing kit - i've used this a lot

ID tags - i guess if i get blown up they'll know my blood type?

garbage bag - for when my pockets are full

elastic bands - i use these when packing to keep rolled socks and things from falling apart

Salt - i have nooooo idea why i have this

cooking grate - i'm not going to hold meat over a fire with a stick like some sort of caveman

heavy duty ziplock bag - in case my mapcase breaks and other reasons

rip-patch - leftover from when i needed a pack because i bought a crummy cheap inflatable sleeping pad.

Army Fleece Beanie - i always keep this at the top of my pack

4 Bungie Cords - not the one i use but similar. to make a field-expedient shelter

Trowel - for disposal of biological wastes

Lensatic compass - because GPS should only be a backup

Pocketboy 130 folding saw - i have a bigger one for yardwork, this small one is really great

Tent stakes - for tent staking

Ravpower 26800 Battery - use this all the time can fast chage my stuff

Battery Battery holder, cables, wall charger - all fits togehter like glove!

Army Poncho - wear it, make a tent out of it etc

Microfiber towel - not the one i use but similar. i mainly use this for when the kids accidentally fall in a lake like they tend to do for some reason

Down Jacket - cheap chinese knockoff... i feel bad for not buying american

Wet weather top - not sure this is worth the space/weight

Wet Weather bottom - not sure if this is worth the weight/space

Silkweights - PJs! and warmth

Jungle Blanket - this is a lot better than the army's woobie. lighter and warmer

Gransfors Bruks Wildlife Hatchet - again, gift from wife. she wanted me to chop things and be more manly, generally. now i come home with parts of wildlife for her to cook

Map of New England - or, how i stopped worrying and love dismounted land navigation

PT belt - keeps me safe in all situations

Compression straps - i don't like lashing things to the outside but i guess i can if i wanted to

Fork and Spoon - stole these from the kitchen. i'll probably be replacing this soon with something titanium.

​

EDIT: i just priced it out: $1,585.08 total

This looks like it may fit the bill for general purpose.

While this is MOLLE, it looks like a fairly innocuous and relatively classy sturdy glasses case.

Probably the next best solution would be a travel case like this, or you might be able to retask an eyeglass organizer like this

I'm going to try a neoprene sunglasses case like this: https://www.amazon.com/MoKo-Eyeglass-Zippered-Neoprene-Sunglasses/dp/B01M6A3MV5

Thank you :)

I don't like selfies so I use my gorillapod combined with my Bluetooth remote to take pictures like if someone else take it. I place my gorillapod as a tripod or hanged on a branche, then I use my Bluetooth remote to take the picture from where I am.

I use the small version of the gorillapod for phone. I didn't know the ultrapod and it seems very nice! The problem in my case is that I have to buy a phone adapter because the ultrapod is only for cameras, and I just use my phone to take pictures.

I use classic Rayban glasses because I don't want to buy glasses especially for travelling. But my glass case is not bulky at all: https://www.amazon.fr/dp/B01M6A3MV5
The foldable version of the Ray-Ban wayfarer could be a good choice to use for travelling.

Thanks for your advices!

Complete the look!

Get a slim one. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B005NXVSOG/ref=cm_sw_r_awd_Yy6.tb1M4M116

I use an old zipped sunglasses case, similar to this. Works great.

I carry a pair of prescription sunglasses and a spare pair of prescription glasses. In all the years I’ve traveled and carried my spare, I’ve never needed it. I’m about to stop traveling with it and just use my prescription sunglasses as a spare. Worst case scenario is I need to wear them for a few days while getting a new pair of regular glasses on the road, but I also carry a tiny eyeglass repair kit, which isn’t much more than a screwdriver and extra screws. I also figure the biggest threat to my glasses isn’t losing them, but rather them getting damaged somehow, where they may still be wearable but require repair.

As for cases, I don’t use one for my main pair, but I currently use a soft-ish Ray Ban case for my sunglasses that they came in. I recently discovered the Radix Lens Jacket, and am just about to order it to try it out as a minimalist case for my sunglasses.

Maybe this case.

For now I'm going with a microfiber cloth case. I'll be wearing them for most of the day anyways.

Does it need to be this exact pattern or will any blue case with handles do? Like this one

This isn't an exact match, but it's close.

Four eyes. I do I do! My son ^I ^^probably ^^^did ^^^^it chewed the parts that go behind my ears. So it can be aggravating.

Edit- this glasses case is adorable! http://www.amazon.com/Small-Dots-Eyeglass-Case-Handbag/dp/B001NZ2SK6/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1377920040&sr=8-3&keywords=glasses+case+for+girls

Edit 2- I'd like new glasses, but mine are just a little gnawed on, and by my own doing. I'm giving up my entry, please gift Miss.ReisaD or telepathetic_monkey. Someone who really needs some! <3
