Collapsible or otherwise selectively reconfigurable carrying cases, and methods for the manufacture and use thereof, are provided. The carrying cases are constructed of at least two body panels made of puncture-resistant material and are selectively reconfigurable between an expanded configuration and a collapsed configuration by the use of a zipper disposed around all or substantially all of a perimeter or circumference of the at least two body panels. The carrying cases are adapted to receive and securely store and carry fragile items, e.g. cameras and photographic equipment, when in the expanded configuration and to collapse or otherwise significantly reduce in volume when in the collapsed configuration for easy storage and transportation.
