My husband and I are both drummers with a local competition pipe band. My snare has a hard case, but my husband's bass drum goes in a padded case.

The case is Cordura on the outside with nylon on the inside and a layer of padding in between.
I also use the Humes and Berg Galaxy stick bag for my large stick collection.
