Notebook cover + pen sleeve, 3.5x5.5" - hand stitched Horween leather - natural Chromexcel

A pocket notebook that comes with a Field Notes notebook and a pen sleeve for your favorite ink stick. Horween Chromexcel leather. People who appreciate good old paper and pen will love the functionality of this notebook cover.

NOTEBOOK COVER WITH PEN SLEEVE

You want to carry a notebook with you everywhere, and it needs a good cover. Here is your solution. Thin and sleek with no heavy spines, this is the perfect back pocket companion. This design fits many different 3.5"x5.5" notebooks.

You can easily carry two notebooks in this cover, one with its back cover tucked into the right flap, and another with its front cover tucked into the left flap. Ships with a notebook. The pen sleeve will fit pens up to about 13mm in diameter.

DESIGN

No stitching on the spine means thread will not wear through over time. A front flap that is open at the top means you can tuck away receipts, business cards and other whathaveyous. Leather construction means it will evolve with you through use and become more and more beautiful as it forms to the notebook and ages to perfection. When one notebook is done, simply pop in another one and keep rockin'.

This works great in a back jeans pocket. As long as you position the pen on the outside edge of your back pocket, this is very comfortable back there even when sitting. If you look at the outside seam of your back pocket while you are sitting, it remains almost straight, so there is very little risk of bending or breaking pens. I carry this with a pen in my back pocket frequently and hardly notice it even when sitting.

PEN SLEEVE

This model comes with a Field Notes notebook but does NOT come with a pen. However, the pen sleeve will fit many pens up to about 13mm in diameter. The pen sleeve is designed to swallow the entire pen, including clip, so there is nothing to catch on pockets and such. I've seen some people who leave the clip on the outside of the sleeve, but this is not how it was meant to be used.
