I like these covers more than the Lenscoat that I used to have on my 600mm -

These are what I use on my 100-400 Mk2, 300 F2.8 and 800 F5.6 - can't fault them! I believe they ship to the Canada but check first.
I use these for my 100-400 II, as well. They do ship globally (to Taiwan in my case).

Hi Jay.
I can't comment on the other brand in UK, but it looks promising.
I use lensCoat on all of my lenses. I have a number of longish, and long lenses, and love them with the following caveat. My smaller L lenses (ex. 24-70 2.8 II L, etc.) with smaller lens hoods, do not keep the coat on the hood well. I contacted the company and they told me to put two sided tape on the hood to help, but that doesn't work at all, and in that regard, I have never been happy.

I have a 300 mm 2.8 II L IS and it has a LensCoat. The LensCoat performs very well and the coat stays well on the hood. I cut a small cutout in the area of the tightening screw that secures the hood to the lens- for convenience and to seat the Coat better.

I think you will be satisfied with LensCoat if you choose it.
