Rigid IP68 ABS 1-Ton Shockproof

The KEVO 5 is the travel case for enthusiasts who make no compromises when it comes to cigar protection. Its rigid grid-textured ABS shell can withstand 1 ton of compression without deforming. IP68 certification guarantees total resistance to dust and water—even in the event of short-term immersion. The egg-crate foam interior holds each cigar via gentle friction without crushing or marking it. The integrated wrist strap allows for carrying by hand or over the shoulder. Capacity: 5 cigars. Compact size: 18 × 12 × 4 cm. Unique black finish.

Rigid ABS, IP68 & egg-crate foam — three layers of protection

ABS (acrylonitrile butadiene styrene) is the benchmark technical plastic for protective equipment—military cases, professional suitcases, and helmets. Rigid under compression, it does not deform under load and does not transmit shocks to the inside. Its raised grid texture structurally reinforces the shell while improving grip.

IP68 certification is the highest level of waterproofing for portable equipment: total protection against dust (rating 6) and resistance to immersion in fresh water up to 1.5 meters for 30 minutes (rating 8). For a cigar case, this means complete protection in the rain, inside a wet bag, or in tropical conditions.

The interior egg-crate foam absorbs vibrations and secures each cigar through progressive friction—soft enough not to mark the wrapper, yet firm enough to prevent movement. It is cut into two half-shells that envelop the cigars when the case is closed.

IP68 + 1 ton — the protection leather cases simply cannot offer

Leather, carbon fiber, or aluminum cigar cases offer protection against moderate shocks and scratches. They cannot compete with an IP68-certified, 1-ton compression-resistant ABS shell. The KEVO 5 belongs to a different category—professional protective equipment applied to the world of cigars.

The two-piece egg-crate foam completely envelops the cigars when the case is closed—no hard surface touches them. The locking latch ensures an airtight seal. The braided wrist strap allows you to avoid placing the KEVO 5 directly on a dirty surface. For adventurers, busy business travelers, and golfers, this is the case you choose when you take your cigars seriously.

Use — 4 steps

1
Preparation before departure: if the trip lasts longer than 24 hours, slide a travel-sized 69% Boveda pack into the bottom of the case before loading your cigars. The egg-crate foam retains residual humidity for short trips—the Boveda takes over for longer journeys.
2
Loading cigars: open the KEVO 5 and place your cigars in the bottom egg-crate foam. Close the lid—the upper half-foam envelops and holds each cigar by friction. Ensure the latch is fully engaged and the seal is in contact around the entire perimeter.
3
Transport: slip the KEVO 5 into your bag, suitcase, or carry it using the wrist strap. It resists compression (checked suitcases), water splashes (rain, patio), and shocks. On airplanes, it is allowed in the cabin without restriction.
4
At destination: release the latch, take out your cigars—they will be in the exact condition in which you packed them. For extended storage at your destination, transfer them to a local humidor. The KEVO 5 is your transport partner, not for long-term storage.

IP68 — what it means in practice: the IP rating consists of two digits. The first (6) = total protection against dust—no particles can enter. The second (8) = resistance to immersion in fresh water up to 1.5m for 30 minutes. For the KEVO 5: rain, humid patios, a soaked bag, or dropping it in a puddle—no risk to your cigars. Only prolonged immersion or saltwater exceeds the limits of this certification.

Boveda pack for long trips: the egg-crate foam retains residual humidity suitable for trips of less than 24 hours. For trips longer than 24 to 48 hours, insert a size S 69% Boveda pack in the bottom of the KEVO 5 before loading your cigars. It will keep humidity stable for several weeks without recharging in the confined space of the case.

Transport case, not a storage humidor: the KEVO 5 does not feature an active humidification system or Spanish cedar. The egg-crate foam retains residual humidity for short trips. Beyond 24 to 48 hours, add a Boveda pack and transfer your cigars to a humidor at your destination. IP68 protects against external water—it is not an indicator of internal humidification.

Ideal for a birthday, business gift, or before an international trip. Pair it with a torch lighter and a compact cigar cutter to create a complete cigar travel kit.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does IP68 certification provide compared to a standard case?
A leather or fabric case offers limited protection against external humidity—rain or a wet bag can damage cigars. IP68 certification guarantees total protection against dust and resistance to immersion in fresh water up to 1.5 meters for 30 minutes. For a regular traveler, it is the difference between decorative protection and certified real protection. Rain, condensation, damp patios, aircraft holds—no risk.
Does egg-crate foam mark the cigars?
No—the egg-crate foam (sawtooth) is designed to hold through progressive friction, not rigid pressure. The foam peaks adapt to the diameter of each cigar and hold it without crushing it. The wrapper does not come into contact with any hard surface. For fragile cigars or those with very thin cellophane, orient each cigar so that the head rests on a complete foam bump rather than between two peaks.
Does the KEVO 5 maintain humidity during travel?
The egg-crate foam retains residual humidity that limits drying out for trips of less than 24 hours. The IP68 seal keeps this moisture inside—the airtight case slows evaporation. For trips longer than 24 to 48 hours, insert a size S 69% Boveda pack into the bottom of the case. The KEVO 5 is primarily protection against shocks and external water—not an active humidor.
Can I take the KEVO 5 on a plane?
Yes—in carry-on or checked luggage. The ABS shell resists 1 ton of compression, making it impervious to rough baggage handling in the hold. Cigars are not restricted items in cabin luggage in almost all countries. IP68 certification also protects against humidity variations in a pressurized cargo hold. In the cabin, the KEVO 5 fits in a backpack or under the seat.
Which cigar sizes are compatible?
The KEVO 5 measures 18 cm in internal length. Compatible sizes: Robusto (124 mm), Corona (140 mm), Toro (152 mm), Standard Churchill (178 mm). Long Churchills (over 180 mm) slightly exceed internal dimensions—check the exact length before purchasing. The egg-crate foam adapts to all standard diameters (ring gauge 38 to 60) without modification.
Is the wrist strap sturdy?
The integrated wrist strap is a braided cord attached to a ring on the ABS shell. It allows you to carry the KEVO 5 by hand or hang it on a bag, belt, or equipment. It is sized for the weight of the loaded case (5 cigars + shell). Avoid hanging other loads from the strap—it is designed for carrying the case only. For intensive outdoor use, check the attachment ring regularly.
Is the KEVO 5 a good gift for a traveling cigar enthusiast?
The KEVO 5 is a cigar gift particularly suited for enthusiasts who travel regularly—business trips, outdoor sports, golf, hiking. IP68, 1-ton resistance, egg-crate foam, wrist strap—an accessory many enthusiasts don't have yet, and whose value they immediately understand. Paired with a torch lighter and a compact cigar cutter, it makes for a complete and memorable cigar travel kit.
