Storage cases/bag options for 5K/8K?

Hey people I hope you are well and Happy New Year 2019. (Waves).

One question please I hope others might be wanting to ask too. How are you guys storing your 5K/8K extra wide headsets? Without a storage case, I’m a bit fed up of having to carefully put my HMD back in the original box each time I use it, which takes ages as you have to carefully fold the cable up neatly and try and leave it all spotless. For that reason, I’ve barely used it but I’d like to. (I live in bed, literally, so anything physical is a struggle).

Any links to the storage options you use would be appreciated. I’ve found quite a few online for VIVE, Oculus Go but I doubt they will fit our headsets are ours are so wide.

I was looking at these sorts of hard case storage ideas:

VIVE briefcase style storage:

Oculus Go storage box

Finally for our headsets this is the only thing I can guess might fit below?

This universal front access flap one like a camera bag looks like it might fit the 5K/8K?

My main priority is keeping out the dust and preferably have it as small as possible so it can be left in view, so not a camera bag kind of look.

Cheers for any ideas.

I got myself a neweer dslr camera bag for 40$cad. It is padded with moveable sections. Using it for HTC vive. Does not work for Samsung odyssey.

I store all my HMD’s in a motorcycle helmet bag, just to keep off the dust.

Thanks for all your replies.

I think the motorbike helmet bag is the best idea short term, and hopefully PiMAX will make a ‘bespoke’ case to fit the 5K/8K and the forthcoming controllers in 2019.

Cheers.
