Xcel C11EHR Exotic Leatherette 1×1 Hard Case – Red

Red is the bold choice in the C11EHR range, and the reptile-style grain gives it more presence than a plain vinyl finish would. The Xcel C11EHR is a 1×1 cue case, so it holds one butt and one shaft and nothing else, which suits a player who likes to travel light.

Koda Sports builds the case around an oval polyform hard shell, the rigid moulded shell that gives it form. The exotic-texture leatherette on the outside is embossed vinyl. On the practical side you get a zippered accessory pocket and an adjustable shoulder strap, which covers the usual needs for a one-cue carry without adding anything you will not use.

The Red body is trimmed in black, and that pairing keeps the colour sharp instead of loud. Set it down among a row of dark cases and it is easy to pick out, which saves the moment of hesitation at the end of a night. If you want a pool cue case you can find at a glance, Red is the one to choose.
