UPDATE 2 - The Pelican 1535 I reviewed came from the very first batch of 35's made back in 2016 (I believe). Literally the day it went up on Amazon I bought it. Since then they have made some pretty substantial changes to the 1535 that address a few of my concerns in this video. I would definitely take another look at the 1535 if I were buying a new case today. They also offer it in more colors which I'm a big fan of not sticking to ordinary black. I still think they need to come down on the price of the 1535. It's basically less plastic but $40 more and doesn't make any sense to me. I don't know for sure but I would doubt Pelican had to heavily invest in a lot of new equipment to make the 35 line.


ORIGINAL DESCRIPTION - I was looking for a new case for my camera gear and knew I wanted a Pelican. The day I went to buy just happened to be the day the new Air series was announced so I decided to wait a month and get one. This is my review and comparison of the new Pelican Air 1535 compared to the older (and cheaper, yet heavier) Pelican 1510.
