Protective map case

I have been using a couple clear Sealine (dry bag mfg) map cases for about 15 years. The large one fits atlas-sized books and typically gets tossed into one truck or another regularly, with atlases and maybe an area-related book. It is finally wearing out and becoming less protective than I like. Small one holds a collection of alternate paper maps and is still going strong.

So it's time to shop! :wings:

Have you all run across protective map cases that have particular strengths, features, or durability that you can recommend? I am very happy with the build quality of the Sealine bags, just having a look around while the opportunity strikes. Here are some references I have come across-

Believe it or not, but I use heavy duty freezer bags for my topo maps for search and rescue land nav training and actual missions. They work well and take a beating in the woods and stuff easily into my vest of pocket. I've found these bags fold up easier and are less bulky.
