I have a 77mm, 82mm & a Cokin ND piece of glass I want to put into a wallet rather than having little boxes everywhere with them in it..

Any good ones around??

Thanks guys!

Apparently soft CD holders/wallets are supposed to do the trick?

B+W Thin MRC CPL 82mm - fits 16-35. Wanted thin cause 16mm is wide on the 5D and apparently this size filter wont vignette.

B+W MRC CPL 77mm - fits 24-70, 135 & 35 with ring adapter, 70-200 f2.8 is

The B&W slim filters are brilliant, but expensive :(

I have non-slim filters apart from the CPL though, the slim ones are just a pain in general use because you can't fit a standard lens cap onto them

I know, the filter cap is so shody, you think for the money you pay they'd come up with a better design that incorporates the standard lens cap.
