This is a fantastic product and well worth investing in if you are looking to get a gig bag or just want a stylish looking bag to carry your instrument in.
The case is spacious and fits a trumpet securely, the foam supports are easy to move around to best fit your instrument. There's also enough space to put a mouthpiece pouch inside the same compartment. I have a 2 mouthpiece pouch in there myself.
The outer pocket is deceptive as it is much more spacious that it appears, with enough space to fit several mutes, valve oil, a waterbottle, umbrella and music stand! I did find that I rarely use the outer cover so I removed it which added quite a bit of space to play around with! This is a good opportunity to point out that the case is highly customize-able. This also means you can care the case as a back pack or over the shoulder.
The leather was initially quite stiff, however, this really softened up after several months and means that case is much nicer to touch and improves over time, since aesthetics is very much a big part of the appeal with this case!
The only con is that the foam in between the trumpet and the zip to the main compartment can sometimes not fold over properly when closing the case and this means that you need to move it over the trumpet everytime you close the case.
Overall, this is a fantastic case and comes highly recommended, despite being a soft case it has provided fantastic protection for a trumpet! I would argue that the soft case is better for the trumpet as it deforms slightly on hard bumps rather than transferring impact and vibrations to the trumpet like some solid cases can do.
Definitely worth investing in if you're looking for a stylish case to take on gigs!
