Leuchtturm1917 PenLoop

I use a Moleskine diary, personal size, which means it is just about the same height as the length of a pen or propeling pencil. I've tried getting the Moleskine pencil, and it doesn't clip on in any sensible way to the diary - the clip is far to delicate and positioned at one end.A single one of these, placed in the middle (stuck inside the back cover) holds the pencil firmly. It also holds Parker pens and propelling pencils, in fact most pens and pencils that have a straight profile. The Parker is the slim one - the Moleskine pencil is rectangular and the pen loop just stretches to fit around it.I prefer the Moleskine Click Roller Pencil - Fine 0.7mm because its rectangular shape lies neatly against the diary. The pen loop holds it securely in spite of the punishment I dish outYou can't reuse these pen loops in another diary or notebook, I haven't found a glue that will stick to the plastic if you pull the sticky tab off. But at this price, it's worth getting a new one with every diary.

The one downside to owning a Rocket Book is that you don't have a way of keeping the pen with the book. This pen loop solves the trick, but I must say that the rubber grip on the Frixion pen provided with the Rocket Book is very grippy, so the pen doesn't easily slip in. But the opposite is also true, you know that the pen is going to stay put once inside the loop.I've used this loop on my Rocket Book over the past year without issue. The Frixion pen has never slipped out, the elastic on the loop has not loosened, and the adhesive has stuck on well to the rough plastic sleeve of the Rocket Book. Cannot fault this product so far!Rocket Bookhttps://www.amazon.co.uk/Rocketbook-Everlast-Reusable-Notebook-Journal/dp/B071Y3MSRK/ref=sr_1_1?s=officeproduct&ie=UTF8&qid=1547816104&sr=1-1&keywords=rocketbook

This works brilliantly. Strongly constructed loop is attached to a plastic pad which attaches to your notebook with a self-adhesive strip. Excellent design, top quality feel. Note: If you are attaching this to a Moleskine diary with a concealed pocket in the rear flap, the pressure of the attachment can cause the pocket to tear. This is not a design fault of either the notebook or this ingenious device - as they were clearly not designed to work together - just make sure you attach it to a cover without built-in pocket and you should be fine.

The idea and the purpose of these Pen Loops is great. I use various notebooks at the same time and always have pens flying around. In fact, there aren't many decent notebooks out there that actually allow you to attach a pen to it and this is quite an inexpensive way to convert any notebook into a notebook + pen carrier. As I mentioned, I use several notebooks so I bought 2 of these to try out.At first glance the presentation is very good and represents exactly what the purpose of the item is (the pictures on the Amazon offer say it all).The instructions if required come in German, English and French. And because they can there's a mention of how detailed Leuchtturm's notebooks and planners are - in case you're thinking of buying one.So far so good...but this is where I think they might have to improve the product or come up with a 2nd version of the loop - rather than a pen loop - a Fountain Pen Loop.As far as I'm aware Leuchtturm have marketed themselves as been fountain pen friendly and all that...so why would they come up with a product that isn't fountain pen friendly??I want to stress out, the product is good, sturdy, well built...but from my point of view, at the moment only suitable for thin pens. If you're looking to use this with fountain pens, make sure it's either a thin FP or be prepared to spend a fair bit of time until you manage fit your pen into the loop. Needless to say of course that once you fit it in, it will stay their. You could probably shake it around all you want, your FP will probably not even move - word of advice though: if you try this, try it first with an un-inked pen - just saying.I have attached some pictures of me fitting in my Lamy Safari Special Edition 2018 - and I can assure you that I managed it but not without difficulty.For the price it has however (£2.50) I'll keep using it (well, it's already adhered to the notebook), but it's a shame as unfortunately I won't be able to use it with other bigger fountain pens I have.I still need to think about what I'll do with the 2nd unit I have...Update: 14/06/2018So, I've been using this for over a month know and it's still attached to my notebook and I'm still using my Lamy Safari with it. I was initially a bit disappointed, but truth be told, the pen loop doesn't feel as stiff as it did at the very beginning but it still holds the pen firmly. I guess also Lamy isn't the easiest of pens to use with a pen loop, as the bottom on the pen is actually squared. If you have a large pen but with a rounded or pointy edge then definitely it will be easier to use. So for anyone thinking about buying this, I would probably say just consider the shape of your pen as will make it easier or more difficult to use but eventually the loop does work. That's +1 star from me.

I haven't had a chance to stick this to my notebook yet so cannot review the adhesion but just from looking at the leather patch and elastic it seems pretty great. The pen loop is small but would be perfect for a standard ballpoint pen. It's such a simple thing but it'll make keeping my pen with my note pad easier!

I purchased 5 of these to add to all my notebooks and journals that did not have a pen loop. Always having a pen and journal together helps so much when travelling. I have lost so many pens that this has helped me a lot. I love this product.

Does what it says on the tin, except of course there is no tin. Fastens nicely to the cover of a notebook but bear in mind it has the kind of adhesive attachment that Velcro has so it can only be used once - try to remove it and it won't stick again anywhere else. Still worth the money for the convenience of having a pen attached to the notebook you're using at the time. Is this the most boring review I've written? I hope so!
