Nice thing about cases made by Boyt or JW Hulme cases is if a zipper or whatever fails they will replace it free except for shipping to them. And I don't think that warranty ever expires. Have two Hulme cases that the early zippers failed and they replaced both and were fast and polite. As with most things you get what you pay for.
