Sorry if not strictly /lit/-related.
For those of you who carry books in a bag or backpack and read them outside, what, if anything, do you do to protect them? How do you account for different-sized books and keep things convenient and manageable?
One can imagine and even buy many different solutions, ranging from form fitting rigid cases to roomy envelopes just substantial enough to keep the book from scratching and crumpling, but what is it that works for you?

I protect only my kindle. I am a little bit paranoic so I take pic rel with me to transport it frm one place to another.
Small books I keep in my pocket, don't take bigger books outside.

I'm all for acknowledging the transient nature of all existence and wearing the wear and tear proudly.
But a book that gets dog-eared to the point where you can no longer flip the pages and must untangle each one, that's a shame right there. When you end up with a book like that through regular use, you're not paying homage to the truths of the universe, you're being wasteful and callous.
I have a briefcase for my book. Remember those?
