newestor Refillable Leather Journal Travelers Notebook - 8.5 x 4.5, Brown

Very beautiful ... recommended

It's definitely genuine leather, with all the cute accessories, looks like great quality but it smells so bad that I had to return it. It is possible that the bubble wrap and plastic wrap over it didn't allow the leather to breathe and might have been stored somewhere humid or moldy and so now the entire book stinks and I can smell it from the other room. Have to get rid of it asap.

The picture is not a true representation of the product. The picture shows full grain leather however the one send is recycled leather which is nowhere as nice as a full grain. I suppose you get what you paid for. It will still do the work but nowhere as nice as the more expensive leather Notebooks.

Amazing!!!! Got it for a friend a he loved it. Will probably get myself one too

Perfetto. E' diventato indispensabile per me e mi ha aiutato a costruire l'utilissima abitudine del journaling.Provvisto di tutto il necessario ad un prezzo molto basso. Pelle spessa econ una finitura opaca molto soddisfacente. Con l'uso si invecchia rendendo il notebook unico. Gli elastici non sono di chissà che qualità ma svolgono egregiamente il loro lavoro. Tutti gli accessori sono molto utili. La penna scrive bene ma non la ho usata molto, preferisco stilografiche. Unico appunto che è veramente una sciocchezza perfezionista, avrei preferito che il metallo della clip e del portapenne avesse la stessa finitura ma capisco che a questo prezzo era chiedere veramente troppo. Se volete buttarvi nel journaling e vi piace l'idea di un taccuino a inserti di questo formato difficilmente troverete di meglio a questo prezzo. La stessa marca ha anche il formato A5, un pelo più ingombrante ma tornando indietro forse avrei scelto quello più che altro per la vasta disponibilità di quaderni sostitutivi in qualsiasi fascia di prezzo!

Leather is fine but the paper is sub par. Pen broke after 2 weeks. Cannot properly fit all 3 booklets. Value for that price though.

I've owned Traveler's Company and Paper Republic traveler's notebooks, and surprisingly, this Newestor has become my favorite. Here's why: The biggest advantage is its value. The leather is durable, develops a beautiful patina over time, and requires virtually no maintenance. While I can appreciate that Paper Republic uses premium leather with very good leather smell, I personally can't justify paying the price of a luxury handbag for what is essentially a small piece of leather with a few holes. The leather quality is excellent, but the craftsmanship involved in a notebook cover doesn't warrant that level of pricing for me. I wish I found this before the other two name brands. Compared to Traveler's Company, I also prefer Newestor's design. Traveler's Company places the elastic knots on the inside of the back cover, creating a noticeable bump when writing on the right-hand page. Newestor moves the knots into the spine between the inserts, resulting in a much smoother writing experience. The leather is just a touch thinner than Traveler's Company, which I actually prefer. It wraps and flips open more naturally while still feeling sturdy and durable. My TV version is in camel color but in suede leather which I actually don't care for. I didn't know about the suede leather until I received it but that was the only option for the color I could chose at that time. If you're looking for a traveler's notebook that offers good leather, ages beautifully, is highly functional, and costs a fraction of the premium brands, Newestor is an outstanding choice. Unless having the Traveler's Company or Paper Republic name is important to you, I think Newestor delivers the best balance of quality, usability, and value.

This kit is all you need when starting of with this type of journaling! I needed an alternative for the Travelers Company ones because they are so expensive and found this one right at the beginning of my journaling journey and I am beyond satisfied with it! It comes in a nice box and the letter is nice and thick!
