Anyone have a recommendation for an AirPods Pro case for the case? Mostly want to keep it closed if I were to drop it so the AirPods don’t go flying. I got an ESR case but it’s very bulky. Looking for thinner/lighter

Maybe I just need a way to keep the case closed if I drop it

Or stop dropping it😂

You probably could do something with Velcro that has a sticky back. It might not be elegant but it would be functional. To me not having some closure mechanism is an oversight on Apple’s part. It reminds me of when phones would eject their battery when dropped.

The problem would be if you can get the rubber band to stay on the case. Maybe if you put two slight grooves in the top and bottom with a Dremel tool this might work better. There we go with my ideas to make it ugly, but functional. 😂

I was thinking one of those small, wide rubber bands like come on a stalk of broccoli

I feel like pulling it out of a soft pouch would give me one more chance to drop it😂
LOL! My problem is more with dropping the AirPods while taking them out of the case. I'm at the point where I make sure I'm sitting down and keep the case over my lap when taking out the AirPods, so if I drop them, chances are they land in my lap.

I just drop drop them all the time😂. Usually taking the AirPod from the case as well. I did start using a lanyard when I take them out and it’s helped tremendously

Lanyards, you mean this?

Or ones for the case?
