Skors Aljava A5 notebook, calendar, bullet journal hard cover, with pen holder, artificial leather, brown, squared, blank, lined

Effective and well made. 4 Stars rather than 5 Due to the cost. Very expensive for what it is! However I have a journal that has a magnetic flap down the long edge, that fastens it. This would rule out all the clip/stick on pen loops ( that are a fraction of the price). The elastic on this item is sturdy and fastens to the rest of the item in a way that keeps it flat and not in danger of curling up or pulling. Other reviewers have commented that the note book needs to be sturdy, I can see that this is true. Mine is a hardback one, so no issues. It is open at both ends, so pen needs a clip on it to keep it in, but it would anyway, otherwise it would fall out when notebook tipped up in your bag etc.I wish someone would produce this cheaper and as someone else said, also in an A4 size for larger note books. I got it in black and wish I had been bolder and gone for one of the bright colours, it's a little dull in black. Would get a 2nd one but not at this price......when Paperchase start doing them at £5, maybe, 'cos a cracking idea! I am a stationery geek and daft enough to pay this (once only)Arrived on time.

Very nice item in soft leather. Looks great and does the job. The book/journal will have to be a hardcover as it fits by way of elastic and it is open at both ends so a pen/pencil with a clip will be needed.EDIT: I bought this in April 2017, it's now the end of February 2019, and it is still going strong with daily use. The stitching has held up with no loose bits or tails and the material is unmarked with no signs of wear. The elastic fitting band has not perished and still holds firmly. I can easily fit 3 Parker Jotter pens in this holder side by side.It is expensive however, it has lasted well, with use during all weather conditions and being thrown around, from time to time, I made a sound investment. If you have a hardback book and a pen with a clip then you need this.

The description doesn't tell you that it's open all the way through, so standard pencils or pens without clips just won't work for you. For this I have dropped a star rating - it should be in the description.My mistake for not reading the other review properly that said it's open at both ends so it's no good if your pen doesn't have a clip on it!But taking that aside, it's well made and good quality, I like it. I've kept it because I think it and I have got pens with clips. Just wish I could use any pen/pencil

Excellent way to keep a pen with your Moleskine or similar book - I have tried pen loops, but this is a much better way and keeps your pen attached firmly.Tip - use it on the back when you are in the first part of your notebook / and then flip it to the front when you get past halfway - that way you don't feel the pen holder when you write.

Looks elegant and well made. Plenty of space for two pens, could possibly fit a third in at a push. And will be easy to move to another notebook when the current one is full. I thought it was a bit dear when I first saw it on Amazon, but the competing products could only take one pen and seemed to more for permanent attachment to a notebook so couldn't find anything really equivalent - glad I bought it - it looks even smarter in person than in the pictures.

The hole goes all the way through, so if your writing implement doesn't have a clip, it's no good. The holder is quite tightly elasticated, so no use on a soft covered pocket book...so not much use..at least my pockets are lighter.

This was pretty expensive but looked perfect to hold a stylus, mine is the size of a Bic biro, can you believe it, the holder has a hole at both ends into which I could pass a jumbo pen, so not only does my pen fall straight through when I bung up the bottom it flies out the top, otherwise it fits nicely round my Sony Xperia 8" tablet.

Keeps my pen and note book together... A very sleight issue is that i need to take out the second pen to write on the left hand side of my book, but no need to take the whole thing off. Looks smart and professional. Well priced compared to some.
