Ed,

Like you, I seldom buy anything but OEM Canon gear but in this case, I purchased this one:

https://www.amazon.com​/gp/product/B0077XIY06​/ (external link)

It operates smoothly, fits perfectly and is very inexpensive.

No.. it has a felt liner, if I recall correctly. I "loaned" my 70-300L to our youngest son, though I suspect "possession is 90% of the law" on this one. I do know, I was a bit surprised by the fit and finish and how well it works.

How long do you think a felt rub strip is going to last. Your talking a $1,300 lens here just wrap a rag around the lens and use a hose clamp. All joking aside I know
$179.00 is a little much but there are some better ones out there I think Vello makes one in the $50.00 range do a little homework.

I have the same one. Works just like OEM. Canon's has felt also. The felt is no better than that on the 3rd party.
