I love Sworovski optics. I've several pairs and almost all of my scopes are of the same make.

However.....the lens covers that they sell with them are very disapointing. The binoculars that I use the most are my 8x32's. I have gone thru many of their lens caps. They either break at the "hinge point" or they fall off and are lost. I've purchased a number of them at what I think is an outrages price. (Around $22.00 a pair). I emailed them with my concerns and got no response.

I've resorted to Superglueing the lens covers to the binocs. But I've still lost covers doing so.

My question to you folks is: Have you had the same experience? And what are the alternatives?

Thanks,

Armbar.

Hi Armbar,

if You call / email Swarovski in Absam - they usually send them for free as a service!

I don´t use these flaps at the binos myself as I want to use them fast - so I put them under my jacket i foolish weather...

With the scopes I use for foolish weather these covers from Swarovski - they are working great:

You can get three of these for $22. http://www.eagleoptics.com/bin...lens-cover-set-small

Nice one Jackfish! Although I'll have to look to see if they have 30mm objective covers.

Thanks,
