Legendary tools need worthy storage and transport. The land of blue handles sent us a few of their soft-sided storage sku's to check out. The material has been durable and easy to clean. They are ultra-light yet still feel heavy-duty. The tool pouches open easily with over-sized, heavy-duty zippers. The pro tool tote has plenty of pockets in and out for all your favorite tools. Its heavy wire rim pivots open to provide no-hassle full access to the interior. They aren't the cheapest storage option, but then that's never been Channellock's goal. These come with their Built Strong Lifetime Warranty.
