{"product_id":"snap-closure-leather-glasses-case","title":"Snap-Closure Leather Glasses Case","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Snap-Closure Leather Glasses Case is a single-layer leather sleeve, \u003cstrong\u003e6.7\" x 3.1\"\n(17 x 8 cm)\u003c\/strong\u003e, made to carry your glasses in a bag without scratching them. A narrow strap\nextends from the back, folds over the front and closes with a \u003cstrong\u003esingle snap\u003c\/strong\u003e; the\ninside is the suede reverse of the leather. Any frame that fits our classic Glasses Case fits this\none too.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSnap-Closure Leather Glasses Case Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStrap flap, one snap\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThe back panel is extended, folded forward and closed with a single snap. The flap does not cover\nthe whole top of the glasses; it crosses the middle like a band. In practice that means the moment\nyou undo the snap, half the frame is already in your hand and you do not have to turn the case over\nand shake it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe back of the snap is covered in leather\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThe inner face of the stud is covered with leather and stitched down. When you close the flap, the\nmetal never touches your frames; there is always leather between the lens and the snap. If you open\nand close it several times a day, that is where you feel the difference.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSuede lined, gentle on lenses\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThe inner surface is the suede reverse of the leather. No separate lining is stitched in, so the case\nstays a single layer. That surface leaves no marks when it rubs against a lens or a frame, and you do\nnot need to carry a cloth with you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCurved cut, lies flat in a bag\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThe two ends of the case taper and the middle widens. The cut follows the shape of a folded pair of\nglasses: there is no empty space inside and the case lies flat in your bag like a book. It is not a\nhard case, so it does not disturb the order of what you are carrying.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSnap-Closure Leather Glasses Case Dimensions and Material\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe case is made from brown leather with tan contrast stitching along the edge. The leather is\nslightly thicker than what we use in our wallets, so the case holds its own shape instead of creasing\nand folding. The curved flap line is cut by hand, so the curve shifts a touch from piece to piece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFull-grain leather:\u003c\/strong\u003e the top and most densely fibered layer of the hide, left\nunsanded and unthinned.
