Overview

Pelican™ Air Case Universal Camera Case

Introducing the 1535AV — the first Pelican case built from the inside out for photographers.

We’ve taken our best-selling Pelican Air 1535 Carry-on Case— already trusted by creators worldwide — and transformed it into a fully camera-ready transport solution. The result is unmatched protection and customization specifically for camera gear.


Why this case is unique:

First-ever photographer-focused interior in a Pelican Air Case. Until now, Pelican Air cases were broadly universal; this one is tailored for shooters.

Built into the best-selling 1535 Air Case. You get all the strength, durability, and airline-optimized sizing of the 1535 Air, with a purpose-built interior.

Hybrid interior: precision foam + TrekPak®. Critical lenses, flashes, and accessories slot into custom-cut foam while the remaining space adapts via TrekPak dividers for bodies, filters, grips, cables, etc.

Optimized for lens-heavy kits. Comes with three dedicated lens pockets (3.5″ diameter × 5″ depth), plus three accessory compartments.

Travel-ready by design. Complies with maximum airline carry-on dimensions, while delivering waterproof, crushproof, and dustproof protection.

Lightweight, rugged construction. Made with Pelican Armor (up to 40% lighter than traditional cases), press-and-pull latches, quiet wheels, and a retractable trolley handle.

Lifetime guarantee & made in USA.

The Air Difference

Same Protection. Smarter Engineering.

Five decades of engineering obsession produced one breakthrough: proprietary HPXA resin. The same relentless pursuit that built the industry standard — now applied to making it up to 40% lighter. This is what innovation looks like when heritage drives it.

Built Without Compromise

Watertight. Crushproof. Dustproof. Lighter.

The standards that define every Pelican case — Air holds all three without exception. IP67-rated waterproof. Crushproof. Dustproof. The weight changed, but the uncompromising protection didn't. That's not a trade-off. That's engineering.
