[Leatherette] Bought a 416, didn't have the case, so I decided why not buy the original since I have the foam windshield and mic stand attachment anyways (for those looking for just a dust protector, the Sennheiser Zippered pouch would do just fine.)
What can I say, it's exactly the same as they ship the 416 in new. I can see the hinge issues others where mentioning, but it's a vintage design, such a hinge design used to be very popular especially for mic cases.
Good part is it's made in Germany, so foam feels of higher quality and less worry about fast foam degradation. Btw, for those buying, throw in a silicon packet or two if in a humid climate.

[0.055 lb] I had a really old pair of headphones and their earpads were disintegrating. I was pleased to find these on your site. They are comfortable and fit on perfectly.
Thanks!

[0.055 lb] Sennheiser makes a solid blimp. I own the grip/suspension system as well, which I bought outside of B&H. I'd say the only competition for this outfit are the Rycote windscreens. Sennheiser's build quality is solid and I prefer the way that the plastic and screen fabric is woven together. I work in a film department and we have an example of this outfit that has really stood the test of time. The end cap only removes on one end (rear). This cap is really tight fitting. It takes some finessing to get it on straight. Functionally it seems the only drawback of how the thing is designed. Price is steep. I managed to put a system together for less than the cost of a new grip/blimp system, did this by purchasing the grip used, and the blimp from B&H. But I was familiar with the design and with good handling and care, I think it is one of the most durable solutions on the market.
