ORTLIEB MAP-CASE £19.50

As well as keeping your map dry, this waterproof case also keeps it secure, tying to your pack or jacket via a long lanyard. Made of soft, UV resistant plastic, it also allows you to roll or fold your map so you can make it small enough to stuff in your pocket.

VERDICT It’s the soft light plastic that marks this map case out as being not only waterproof and secure but also potentially pocket-sized.
