Leg Warmer Microsoft Manfrotto Alpha Shot — model MB RO LW, protective cover for tripod legs

Protective leg warmer Microsoft Manfrotto Alpha Shot — model MB RO LW is a padded cover designed to wrap around tripod legs of Alpha Shot–style tripods.

The cover is compact when removed and can remain on the tripod during transport for continuous protection.
