Hide & Drink, Case for Hardcover Leuchtturm A5 (5.75 x 8.25 in.) Notebook, Protective Cover for Journal, Personal Planner, Full Grain Leather, Handmade Writing Accessory, Bourbon Brown

Perfection

The 8.5x11 has a softer feel. This is more polished and holds up to scuffs. I wish it smelled stronger of leather but it does the job.

OK everyone. Get over the pen loop. We get it. Some pens work. Others don’t. I choose to think it’s meant for an everyday writing pen and not your favorite fountain pen. I use the Pentel Arts Hybrid Technical. The other options are: larger loop? Then some pens may fall out. Elastic loop? Yes, but it’ll eventually stretch out.Upon opening my package, the first observations were the quality appearance & the smell of the leather. I couldn’t get enough! Please note: I’m a part of the journaling community. My other covers are from Galen Leather, Midori Goat Skin and Moterm. They all have +/-‘s.Again, I love this cover but it’s a tight squeeze to get a hardcover Leuchtturm a5 in. We don’t just write everyday. We use tapes, stickers, add photos. By year end, the journal is much thicker. Will the leather stretch? Not going there. I have quite a collection of new journals so I played around. The softcover A5’s fit best; preferably the Rhodia (80 sheets/160 pgs) they also have the elastic band making this cover perfect. There’s about a 1/4” difference in thickness between soft & hard covers. See included photo for reference. All said - I love this cover.

The media could not be loaded. I ordered this for my Leuchtturm1917 a5 hard cover journal . The fit is perfect. The cover makes my journal easier to hold , and to write . The pen loop is a great add on. I use it for my bulky fountain pen and it holds . So far .However , the smell is bad . May be , it will fade over time. The package delivery was not good, since it was delivered with the original plastic packaging to my home . It was not even inside Amazon’s delivery box or packaging. So, it has lot of scratches on the outside . Im assuming , it will fade away in time with the patina ( taking one start away) 🤞🏾.Overall , its a good buy for the journal .

Their leather is impeccable. I also love their craftsmanship and the little things included. I probably have 30 items made by them over the years. I’ve beaten the absolute 🤬 out of 2, that are weathered by 12 years and still are in shape and DAILY travel.

These make for a great gift. Beautifully crafted. High quality. I’m absolutely loving it. Fits perfectly with the A5 notebooks. Really smooth and good design. Definitely a good value product. I’m in love with this brand! Their other products are great too.

Love the durability and softness of the leather. It was a little difficult getting the notebook in at first but now it’s fine. Looks chic and stylish yet very functional.

Too tight a fit. Had to return.
