Abstract: Collapsible or otherwise selectively reconfigurable carrying cases, and methods for the manufacture and use thereof, are provided. The carrying cases are constructed of at least two body panels made of puncture-resistant material and are selectively reconfigurable between an expanded configuration and a collapsed configuration by the use of a zipper disposed around all or substantially all of a perimeter or circumference of the at least two body panels. The carrying cases are adapted to receive and securely store and carry fragile items, e.g. cameras and photographic equipment, when in the expanded configuration and to collapse or otherwise significantly reduce in volume when in the collapsed configuration for easy storage and transportation.

Abstract: An electronic device case includes a panel including a front surface, a back surface, and a recess. The case further includes a kickstand with a first end hingedly connected to the panel such that the kickstand in a closed configuration is at least partially disposed in the recess of the panel and an open configuration a second end of the kickstand is spaced from the panel. A storage area is disposed in the recess. The storage area is configured to hold a charge or data cable for the electronic device and is configured such that the charge or data cable may be disposed therein with kickstand in the closed configuration and the open configuration.
