This case is sturdy, decently priced, and has a useful outside pocket with a zipper. The strap design is a bit awkward, but overall, it's a nice product.

I've been using one of these for a couple of years. It works with my Loree, Fox and Hiniker oboes. Very sturdy. I'm buying a second one because the first is being sold with one of my Loree oboes. The front pocket has room for a double compartment zippered tool case, several 10-reed reed cases, and a reed soaker. The inside cutout, which is normally used for a standard reed case will also accommodate the somewhat larger Weiseman wooden 3-reed case, which I prefer. I don't use the cases that the oboes come in, except for storage at home. Whichever one I'm currently playing, and carrying around, goes in the Protec case.

I purchased the oboe case from Music 123. After submitting the order I was notified it was back ordered. 3 weeks later it arrived. The compartments in the case are too small for the intermdiate level Fox oboe. They are not even close. Returning the case to Music 123 proved difficult due their poor customer service - 3 phone calls to process the return - 40 minutes wait time.
