outstanding case

Well made, stylish, the magnet works well to put the device into low power mode. Highly recommend.

Just Added a New Case

So glad that SF Bags added this to the collection when you did. I just purchased an AirPods Max and was thrilled to receive this. Perfectly matches my other Waterfield accessories and very happy to put Apple’s case back in the box. Headphones, charger, cables and an AirTag to boot. All in one place and easy to find. No leaving the house without everything I need. Thanks.

Better than Apple’s case

This AirPod max case is absolutely perfect. It keeps the cans well protected, automatically puts them in low power mode, takes up minimal space, and looks great doing it. The quality of the materials and workmanship is top notch; I expect this case will outlast my headphones.

Excellent!

Could not be more pleased with the product! Excellent craftsmanship!

Truly, the most artistic and amazing case with beautiful workmanship and designed perfectly for my AirPods.
I can’t wait to order more products from this company .

SIZE GUIDE

The compact AirPods Max Shield Case is custom-fit to protect and carry your AirPods Max with or without the Apple Smart Case.

LOW POWER MODE WITH CENTER MAGNET

A central magnet puts the AirPods Max into low-power mode when the two ear cups are placed on either side of it. It also keeps the ear cups from bumping into each other accidentally.

The magnetic tab lies flat when the Apple Smart Case is on the AirPods Max, and flips up when the Smart Case is off, preserving power while it's in the case.

KEEP ACCESSORIES ORGANIZED

Everything you need for your AirPods Max can be organized in the compact AirPods Max Shield Case. The mesh pocket holds the power plug, while the soft, fleece-like interior lining cradles and protects the AirPods Max's stainless steel ear cups and delicate head band.

CARING FOR YOUR SHIELD CASE

If you have the waxed canvas and chocolate leather AirPods Max Shield Case, Gary shows how you can maintain these materials so they'll look great over time.

For the chocolate leather panel, we use full grain Roughman leather which has oils that respond well to heat.
