Review: Etchr Field Case

[@katrinaavinobarracato4848]

$70 for a pencil case ?????

[@KarijnsWatercolors]

They both look lovely and of very good quality, thanks for the review. :)

[@emonchen637]

Looking forward to the next episode on the satchel!

[@toadie2929]

Both the case and the pouch looks very nice and well made. They would certainly fit the needs of many an artist since they are so customizable :)

[@liezelhaupt7172]

Very cool case. Cannot wait for you to review the backpack. :-)

[@rainsantillan8921]

Perfect timing as I'm looking for a new pencil case!

[@onionman2562]

I love your videos! Please do more fountain pen videos

[@rrivers52]

I like how discreet it looks. I often carry what I need for a sketch session in my backpack or pocket, so this would be a step up. I would definitely be a customer, great review!

[@espic3128]

I really hope they would sell affordably and can be bought separately, this has almost everything I was looking for in a case, despite its awful color and those velcros :P

[@Jennifer-wr9si]

Just become a patron on Patreon. I love your videos!

[@teohyc]

+Jennifer K Thanks so much for your support 😁

[@jenwilly7260]

Can you fit a regular short handle paint brush in one of these?

[@teohyc]

Best to use pocket brushes

[@MDCampbell]

This would be a great product to keep in my car. I am just about to publish a video on my travel kit, which I've had for years, and clearly all my things would not fit in this one. How conservative do you find that you have to be with the Etchr, keeping out things you would really like to keep in a travel kit? Thank you for the review! Great work, as always! Cheers! :)

[@teohyc]

+M.D. Campbell All the things I usually bring can fit in this Field Case. That would include pocket watercolour brushes, pens, watercolour palette, pencils.

[@smchalk3535]

looking forward to the back pack review. The field case looks nice

[@emilie5501]

I've been binge watching your videos!! your content is super helpful and your reviews are so detailed and amazing!! THANK you for taking your time to make these awesome videos, I for sure have learned so much!!

[@teohyc]

+Apple Flabbers Thanks 😁 I try my best to make sure I cover all the things people should know

[@lililanlalin5023]

What is it called? Where can I buy it, sir? Please tell me the brand name of it and its model,please. Or Where can I buy it in the webpage or....?

[@teohyc]

+Lily Suriyotai You can find it here www.kickstarter.com/projects/995371043/the-etchr-art-satchel-and-field-case

[@FoundOnDeeRoad2]

Thank you for the wonderful review. I always look forward to your reviews because you are so informative! Great job!! :)

[@teohyc]

Thanks ヾ(⌐■_■)ノ♪

[@jenwilly7260]

What are the dimensions of the sketchbook that you are able to fit in there?

[@teohyc]

A6 size

[@LeaGalTan]

Nice case but very expensive. I read that it will retail for about $75. The new satchel is beautiful but too large for me; I like the size of their last bag (Nomad) but I don't think they make it anymore.

[@teohyc]

+Debbie Riley If I am not wrong, it is going to be $50 or $55. Still pricey though.

[@marthaf5842]

There is also a slate one which is smaller like the nomad but can still fit more than the nomad and there is also a small slate

[@higherground711]

That's a nice field case. It has more tricks than a magician. ;-) Thanks for the review Teoh.

[@patrick-sl9xz]

Its 3am and I dont even need a pencil case why am I watching this

[@iknownothing-49]

Nice review....but I don't like the case. I don't feel like it holds enough and the long back pocket seems arbitrary. I've been using a crochet hook case. It has plenty of elastic slots for pens, pencils and a water brush. Also zippered mesh pockets for erasers and pencil sharpener. Two parts so my small sketchbook fits. If you want something bigger, Amazon sells knitting needle cases.

[@teohyc]

+Imelda Fagin Oh, it can fit three times the number of pens I've shown in this video. I just did not want to pack that much in 😂

[@lanamachadart]

Want this Field Case, I need one so much...

[@sprucehouse9]

Another good review, Theo! (Maybe the sketch book can be slipped into that open pocket in the back.) I like that they put the shallow pocket at the bottom of the pen and brush area so they don't accidentally slide out. I've been using a Maxpedition Beefy Organizer for a few years now that I think I like better than this one tough because it has more room to put stuff. Not as many pen/brush slots, but enough for simple sketching sessions. Maybe you could review that one sometime too as a comparison.

[@teohyc]

+Linda Navroth Thanks. Just checked out some of the Maxpedition bags. They look good.

[@bnp2bnp]

Lol. Cool shirt, Teoh. 😊

[@ACChabon]

Hello. Will this fit a standard Midori traveler's notebook insert?

[@teohyc]

+AC Chabon Not sure how big that is. The pocket in front is 11cm wide

[@AllanEngelhardt0]

Thanks! Signed up for the notification when they launch. Really hope you can review the satchel soon -- it is quite a financial commitment...

[@teohyc]

+Allan Engelhardt Yeah. I heard it is expensive. The launch date is somewhere in September if I am not wrong.

[@AllanEngelhardt0]

Don't know if it is expensive (that's a value judgement) but it is a non-trivial amount of money. It will be around USD 190 for the satchel on Kickstarter ($250 retail) and $55 ($75 retail) for the field case. (Source: etchrlab.com/blogs/news/etchr-on-tour-the-search-for-taz)

[@teohyc]

Yes, those are the prices. I'll put up a more detailed review of the bag to let you all decide whether it's worth your month.

[@DavidLorellHoskins]

⚡ *_Thanks_* *_Teoh_* ✨

[@thabest007]

Since this is not out yet, and might be expensive when it is, can you recommend a similar product that is affordably priced and available in Europe?

[@GenWivern2]

Have a look for Lihit Lab - there's something similar in their range. Quality is good and so is the price if you shop around.

[@teohyc]

+thabest007 I was going to recommend Lihit Smartfit bags. Check out my review at www.parkablogs.com/picture/review-smart-fit-pencil-cases-and-bags

[@jimmygrey6848]

Maxpedition makes some pouches like this. The Maxpedition EDC pocket organizer is pretty much the same, comes in a few colours and should be widely available. And cheaper, But they have a more "tactical" look to them.

[@artilleryvoodoo]

Its a good review but its way over priced. You can get a satchel to carry your sketchbook and stuff for 20 quid any day of the week. I paid 20 pounds for an Animal satchel and I can get an A3 sketchbook in it plus tons of space for loads of pens paint etc I mean they're asking 45 quid just for the pencil case. Jog on Etchr

[@teohyc]

+Artillery Voodoo There are definitely more affordable options out there.

[@blackmetaltrajano3715]

Tooooooooo expensive

[@MicheleLHarvey]

I love the idea behind this, but I find the large case too large and the small too small. I have found that the Spec.-Ops Pack Rat Organizer (size: 10" high, 7.25" wide x 3" thick. Total Capacity: 217.5 cubic inches.) It's roomy enough to fit all my watercolor sketching supplies plus one or two Stillman and Birn 8.5 X 5.5 sketchbooks. Lots of pockets and compartments and loops for a shoulder strap.

[@Ganakel]

ATTENTION : Plus de deux mois pour etre livré ! Ceci sans etre avisé...... aucun geste commercial de ETCHR alors je ne recommande pas du tout More than 2 months for delivering ????still do not have anything ...without being advised , not kind gesture ! i do not recommand

[@teohyc]

+g4n4k3l p You should contact Etchr Lab and see what they say.
