Hahaha ok cool. I totally misread it.

The Koolau case arrived today and as promised, it fits like a glove. Anyone need a foam case for a tenor (I think it is the one pictured below)? Free when I can find a box to ship it in.
That case will work for me. Just let me know shipping.
Did you get the Koolau case with the red trim? I want one of those but they don't make them anymore.

Really?? The red trim is what attracted me to the Koolau case.
The case I got looks to be of the same design shown in the picture (the hard case not the soft case), but it is brown, and there is no red thread or trim. Seems like a pretty good case for the money and my HF-3 fits in it perfectly with zero movement. I can take a picture of it if that would be helpful for anyone.
The new Koolau cases are brown while the Oahu cases are all black. The old Koolau cases had the red seam on the black case.
I think - think - that the Ko'olau cases are all brown now (my last two have been) and the O'ahu cases are black with black stitching (not red). I have an O'ahu for my concert and a Ko'olau for my soprano (Kanile'as both). Both are perfect fits.
Yikes! You beat me to it!
Scored an older model Ko'olau case with the red thread trim at the So Cal Uke Fest this past weekend for $70 tax included. It was a great deal but too nice to take as a travel case. I'll be using Sealcove's case for that.

:agree: Sounds like we have the same case. It fits the uke like a glove and yes there is very little storage space but the fur (fake) lining is great. It traveled well with me from Hawaii to the Mainland.
