Xikar Envoy Cognac Brown Leather Single Cigar Tube Case

Yeah...more Xikar.
I wish they didn't import such great products so I could buy another brand now and then.
Almost an inch and a half in diameter, Cedar lined top & bottom with stitching at both ends of the tube. It had that ubiquitous silica gel bag stuffed too far down towards the bottom, but I was able to retrieve it after using a pair of forceps. The smell inside was something other than the cedar. I am hopeful it will fade with time and carrying fresh smokes.

It is too large to jam into pockets and such. It is not my grand uncle's case. He had one of those leather cases that held three smokes permanently parked in his breast pocket. I also have one of them but it is too flexible to adequately protect an expensive cigar. This case has metal caps at either end. Protection plus.

It can accommodate almost any length smoke from five inches collapsed to eight inches fully telescoped.

It is also an inch in diameter, so it will hold a 64 ring size, although it'll be snug.
(Ring size is in 64ths of an inch - a 56 is 7/8s of an inch)

Good for your bag or briefcase or your very large pocket.
Another win for Xikar.
