Swarovski el 8.5x42 binoculars

Lost both of the supplied rubber covers stalking in Arran last month.
Can anyone recommend/tried any third party replacement covers. Was thinking of using butler creeks with flip up, has anyone else tried this if so, what size did you use?

Give Swarovski a call, they will send you replacements

Thanks rigboot, I may well do that however, I am not confident they will fair any better. Almost lost the first ones several times and was thinking of super glueing the buggers on. Decided not too, due to cosmetic damage and possible depreciation if/ever sold them.

Thanks guys looks like I will contact Swarovski. Happy new year to you all.

I'm surprised no-ones posted yet that this is a design fault and just proves that Swarovski are not worth the extra £1,000's.

FWIW, they sent me spares too!
