A5 YKK Zipper Notebook Journal Planner Sketchbook Cover for 5.5 x 8.25 Moleskine Cahier 5 x 8 legal note pads A5 LEUCHTTURM, Pen Loop, Water Resistant Cover, Classy Waxed Canvas, Olive

I wanted a zippered cover for EDC notebook. I use a A5 size hardcover notebook, whether it's a nice Leuchtturm or a cheapie. The dimensions are the same. A5 (145 x 210 mm x 16mm)Pros:Well madeSturdyLots of pocketsLooks greatWill hold a book style notebook or a notepad in the top pocket. Versatile.Carry handle on the spine.Cons:A bit thin internally. The notebook I use is a squeeze to fit. I think this was designed for thinner notebooks like the freebies it comes with. Which means you can't put anything else in it.Outer pockets are a tight fit as well. Could use a little more slack.But over all a good cover. Now I don't have to worry about my notebook getting beaten up in my bag.Would recommend. But for thinner notebooks.Probably like the Cahier Moleskine notebooks.

I had a similar notebook portfolio in black, different brand, and liked it well enough. But the black color kept causing it to easily get lost, so I looked for one in a different color and found this one.Even though both are very alike in design, this olive one is better. Zipped up, with one of the free notebooks and my pen inside and my phone and stylus in the wide outer pocket, it'll stand up on its end! I love this feature. I love the wax coating that keeps it dry in the rain. And I really love that it's less heavy or bulky than my old one. And thanks to the lighter color, I haven't lost it yet! Really perfect for my needs. It's beautifully made, sturdy and attractive. Good job!!

I REALLY wanted this, but it just didn't work for my intended use. I can't give 5 because I just didn't use it much. I was hoping that my iPad mini would fit comfortably, but that wasn't in the cards. I have no reason to think that this would be anything other than amazing to use for the intended. Certainly feels like a quality item, I was almost sad to have to return it :(

Well, made much better than expected. Also, to be specific, it does hold an iPad mini in an Apple smart case with plenty of room for a notebook and other items in the individual pockets. While it does not say specifically for the iPad mini, it does fit as a shell for when traveling or going to meetings. Highly recommend.

I’m using this with my rocket book. Great cover. Inside pen holder. Taken on multiple trips for work. It looks good. Holds up to travel. And has room to get things out of my pockets.

Having been diagnosed with ADHD and looking for ways to keep things better organized, I was in need of something to house my bullet journal, notepad and pen. This didn't have a lot of reviews, but I took a chance and I'm glad I did. I was able to slide the back cover of the bullet journal into a slot in the right side of the case. It fits snug with a bit of room to spare on both the top and bottom. I then was able to slide the cardboard back of a note pad into one of the slots on the left side of the case (even though I don't think it was meant for this). And another backup notepad in the back pouch on the right side behind the last page of the journal. Because of how thick the journal is with the 2 note pads, there really isn't a slot to put the pen in. I've found that it stays just fine next to the binder however. Everything stays in place, especially once zipped up. Even with the extra notepad in it, it doesn't bulge too much when closed. If you're like me, and in need of something that will last, and help keep your ADHD chaos a little more organized, this is a must have. Bit on the spendier side, but if it helps in even the slightest, it's worth it. And so far it's doing just that.

THE GOOD:•••Quality materials. Good canvas. Good zipper. Good nylon interior•••Built-in hardcoversTHE BAD•••Cover will NOT hold a Leuchterm1917 A5 250 page hardcover (i.e. a standard Bullet Journal) without sacrificing all storage space.•••Front pen pockets have a stress point that may give way with normal use.•••Hand strap is too short. It is difficult for me to get my knuckles under it. If you have large hands (and I •don’t •), this strap is useless.•••Cover will not store bulky accessories at all when loaded with a standard Bullet Journal. Cover will not zip closed with even one bulky item in the storage pocket. (See photos.)

I've been using this for a few months now and it's great. I use it to hold a spiral-bound A5 notebook and it fits perfectly. It's much lower profile than my last folio. Slides much more easily into my backpack and has kept the notebook from getting damaged.I have found myself using the hand strap on the spine a lot more than I expected. I had thought it was just a weird feature, but it makes it relatively easy to write without a flat surface if needed.I haven't really used the storage pouches for anything. They seem quite snug. I could probably get a pen or two in there, but they wouldn't come out easily.I'm pleased with it and would buy one again. It does exactly what I needed it to. If you need to stuff the pockets, this may not be great for you.
