The Stanesby by Harry that I have here is in a soft case too. I stick it in my backpack, which is heavily padded (it's a huge-capacity laptop backpack). I'm not so much worried about breaking the thing due to the soft cover (sometimes I do split up the bottom and middle joint in case I somehow stress it while attached). I'm moreso worried about exposure to the elements, as the soft case is only lightly padded and has that giant drawstring hole. I haven't taken it out in winter yet but I might elect to bundle it under my jacket if I happen to take it out in the dead of winter. Before that happens, my backpack suffices. In fact, last week, I managed to stick my modern oboe case/cover into my backpack, the Stanesby beside it in its soft case, a laptop in the sleeve, a small textbook, my 2 reed cases and reed vial in the outer pocket. I always put my modern oboe in my backpack in fact. All accessories can go in it. Even my stand somewhat (I can't zip it up then, so I normally carry the stand).
For experiment, I just tried sticking the baroque oboe into my BAM double case and I suppose it fits in various grooves and I can close the lid. I'm assuming other cases where the inside is soft molded foam and not hard wood/velvet would work. It's just that 3-key cluster you don't want to crush. Maybe an Altieri alto flute bag could work. https://www.altieribags.com/ww_flute.html
