Tripod Bag - FLM CP26-L3S

**appletree** · 3-Dec-2015, 13:08

This one is a short post. Rare for me, I know.

Went to buy THIS and they have 0 of any color in stock.
Any idea of someone else making anything similar to the Duluth option? Even if it isn't necessarily made for tripods?
Prefer canvas/cotton that I could wax to go with my other waxed cotton gear...at this point though I don't care.

I also looked at RRS bag and these look very nice.
But they take up space and I would like something just to sleeve the tripod and put on top of my duffle or side of my pack.
Plus I may eventually get a smaller travel tripod and with a sleeve (like from Duluth) I could use it for smaller tripods or bigger or whatever. I never intend to check the tripod during travel...if I do then I would for sure invest in something nice and padded.

I leave in about 8 days...so not much time to order something.

And this is my tripod. Thanks in advance!

Where do you see the stock info on the duluth website? I was able to add one (the Great Lakes color which they say they have, other colors are custom made) to the cart but of course didn't complete the purchase. I have two bags I use but they're the ones that came with the tripods (Gitzo and Ries).

Sorry, forgot to mention, I called them yesterday and I was informed there was none in stock.
Minimum of 6 weeks for any color.

Friendly bump. Any other suggestions?

Music stand bags.

Find your appropriate size and price point.

Whenever you do want to get a padded bag for airport travel, let me know; I have one for your tripod.

Jonathan,

I found out that a bag that holds one of those cheap folding chairs works well. I bought one of those cheap camping chairs and it broke. Found out it holds my Gitzo perfectly. It is not padded, but it works well as a tripod bag.
