I usually hate this feature but in Galen Leather's A5 Notebook Cover, I love it!

[@EELinneman]

Kerry, I've found it easier to put leather covers on if you fold the covers of the notebook back all the way like birds wings up high ready for the downstroke. Thanks for the wonderful review, it looks great and a good value too.

[@marcihummel9715]

I have one in Crazy Horse Green and love it. I’ve been delighted with all of the products I’ve gotten from Galen Leather - their quality and design are top notch.

[@michaelcarpenter6242]

Fantastic review - very up front with how you got the item, thank you - I appreciate your time and love the humor.

[@stuartriley]

I love the Galen Leather Notebook cover. I have considered it, but now seeing this, I might make the plunge to purchase. Thank you Kerry for your sharing of your videos.

[@randy-9842]

Kerry, this one almost makes me wish I _needed_ another leather notebook cover ... but, alas, I really don't. Galen Leather truly excels - especially with their leather and paper products!

[@cynthiarichter792]

I have several Galen leather items and just love them. Best quality I have found.

[@donnajaemoon]

I think I’m gonna have several of them, too. I’m actually waiting on my first order to arrive, hopefully, today or tomorrow. FedEx’ ETAs are pretty reliable.

[@jacobpedersen8661]

This exact style/shade cover will be the next thing I purchase, along with one of Galen's zippered slim wallets. Love Galen Leather, and love my A5 notebooks, definitely want a quality cover!

[@dianewalker9154]

I have multiple Galen Leather products, including two A5 covers. Using my crazy horse green one right now. Love them!!!!!!!

[@Richard_Barnes]

I think all leather ASMR is just epic and I love it 🤩 Thx for the review Kerry 🙂

[@arlenealennox3136]

That’s a very nice pen loop design.

[@Sonicman415]

I love their products. Such a beautiful company, with a high level of integrity. 💜✌🏽💜

[@caklich]

I have this exact cover for my Hobonichi and it is outstanding, agree with all your points!

[@fastwalker128]

Hey there. An easy way of getting notebooks into the notebook cover is to bend the notebook ( and of course the cover) 180 degrees so the outside surfaces touch each other. This way it can slip in without bending the cover too much. Once slipped in about half way you can bend it back to normal shape and it’ll just continue to slide in further into the cover. Another thing about pen holders. You can buy self stick pen holders on eBay that stick onto your notebook edge and work excactly the same as the built in ones.

[@MarchMeadow]

I have the exact same product, but I cut the pen loop off -- I would never use it and it felt intrusive. Otherwise, it's a brilliant cover and I use it with a Rhodia exercise book so it's a slim affair.

[@thespicedune]

Galen makes great products. Just got their wooden pen stand that is proudly holding a Narwhal, Swipe and Vac700r.

[@sailcat9]

Oh, great. After watching your video I ordered one of these. This makes the fourth Galen Leather case/cover I've purchased. It's all your fault! 😁

[@archivist17]

That looks great! 👍

[@dianarene8952]

Love the video. Cosmo Air light is great to work with.

[@edwardstaats4935]

I would love to see it have a zipper cover like that. Love the leather

[@lachimiste1]

Galen makes amazing zippered notebook covers. I have two of their B6 zippered folios, and I absolutely love them.

[@Evenhurst]

Great video as always! Do you know if it will fit most a5 notebooks? I’m wondering if it’ll fit Hobonichi’s new a5 plain notebook (same as techo a5 dayfree)

[@marksomers7816]

Sorry if I missed it, but is this the brown or tan version? Thanks!

[@madelinehammonds9248]

Do you think adding your own ribbon bookmark would be easy in this? or does the notebook sit too close to the case (i.e. causing a bump visible on the outside of the case)

[@simonsayswin1731]

Lovely review! May I ask, what notebook are you using? Thanks!

[@helmarfranke6514]

Do you notice the leather "edge" underneath the page when writing?

[@s.n.11]

I personally don’t like leather products but I like a lot of the other non-leather products of galen leather. So, not for me but interesting anyway.

[@dennismanning3964]

do you prefer this version or the one with the thick elastic closer? I'm on the verge of buying one

[@PensandTea]

I do. The elastic has its place but I like this better

[@JazzyJP]

Does this folio fit a hardcover Leuchtturm1917? I ordered one for softcover notebooks but curious!

[@JazzyJP]

I can now confirm it fits hardcover L1917 with 250 pages quite nicely!

[@michaelsimon4034]

Parker didn’t lend her paws to help you get the notebook into the cover? Figure an extra pair of hands would be helpful.

[@WaitingtoHit]

I highly recommend this notebook to vegans.

Discord link has expired Kerry 😂

[@PensandTea]

Updated!

[@Richard_Barnes]

@@PensandTea thx 🙏🏻 that worked and I’m in! Barnsey has arrived 😉

[@vishalyagnik226]

Kerry, first it was too much of keweco now too much of Galen and Leather's

[@PensandTea]

Lol it was a single order but the reviews done separately. I do have a problem with Kawecos but I love them 🤣
