What kind of cases do you use to carry your decks?

I'm looking to buy a case to carry my decks, at least 4 edh decks (so 400 cards), preferably a bit more. I'm just wondering what you guys use to carry your decks.
I'm looking for something a bit more durable than the fatpack boxes, and can hold a decent amount of cards.
Sorry if this belongs to a different thread.

The command tower/satin tower are definitely good for edh decks, however I carry more than one. So I don't think I would get like, 5 to carry my decks.
I'm currently using the fatpack/toolkit boxes, but they're getting worn out and I'm looking for something more sturdy than cardboard and can hold more cards.

I keep my 60 card decks inside the dragonshield boxes their sleeves came in and I have my EDH deck inside fat packs. If you want a good case, make one out of wood or order one online. They are sturdy and look good but will cost you a bit.

I use my school backpack lol with the core set deck building boxes.

I use Ultrapro deck boxes for 60 card decks and the ultrapro leather boxes for EDH decks. I carry the deck boxes in a lunchbox.

I use a Dragon's Egg. While it is an awesome tournament bag, the slots are only big enough for 75 sleeved cards and a divider. You could roll with 3 EDH decks if you don't mind splitting them between 4 compartments.

I also use a deckbuilders toolkit box for my two EDH decks and my one standard. 260 sleeved cards and I can fit the oversized cards in and Dice. :D Im looking at getting a leather deck box for my EDH decks though

I put mine in the clear pvc ultrapro boxes (as seen here)and just put the boxes in a backpack.

I carry mine in a stroller with a parasol so they aren't sun damaged.

I have a red ultra pro side by side box, it fits a sleeved deck in one side, a dice cube, sleeved sideboard and 4 tokens in the other.
I put that and a blue one which has my trade stuff in a red plastic Jurassic Park lunch box

I use a Hello Kitty makeup zipper box/pouch thing. It holds about 6 decks, more if I don't have my huge deckbox + EDH box in there.
I like the makeup carrying cases because they tend to be big, durable, zip up to keep everything in, and sometimes have pockets for extra crap like dice. (And they aren't all pink and girly, but that's a nice bonus.)

Personally I like carrying my 2 main EDH decks in my Elder Dragon Vault deck box, holds 2 sleeved EDH decks, some tokens, and dices into a beautiful leather package. For the rest I can fit 3 EDH decks into fat pack boxes easily for transport.

I keep decks within various cases, with decks I use frequently in a big tool box.

I also use the Elder dragon vaults for all my edu and modern decks. They have a lot of space and are very sturdy. They are a faux leather finish with a scale like print on it, with space for 2 sleeved edh decks or two double sleeved 60 card decks plus sideboard. Would never go back to anything else

I have seven Fantasy Flight deckboxes for EDH decks that I carry around in a $20 nylon cooler I bought at Wal-Mart. I can fit six easily and have the other one laying on top. It also contains a bag for dice (I made it myself about 20 years ago out of heavy cloth and rope; contains about 7 Chessex dice sets and some Warmachine tokens) plus small clear snapcases for loose cards in the front pockets. I roll a playmat up and stick in the top where you're supposed to put ice packs; it sticks out a bit so it probably looks absurd. The cooler's starting to wear out but it's served well for twenty bucks.
I'd rather use my messenger bag but I needed that for work stuff.

I only have 2 EDH Decks, and use an old Deckbuilder's toolkit box to carry those and a box of extra sleeves.
As for 60 card decks, I buy the Ultra Pro deck boxes, the little plastic ones for non-important decks like Pauper and bad modern decks, and the good leather ones for my competitive decks. I also have a messenger bag that I carry this all in.
Ultra Pro just recently came out with a new deckbox meant for EDH called the Command Tower box, or something like that. It holds a sleeved EDH deck, and has space for oversized cards and everything. Might be worth looking into
