Thanks so much for your lovely review! We’re really glad to hear your Cahier cover met your expectations. We design our pieces to last for years, which is why we stick to natural materials and avoid adding things like elastic where possible, as unfortunately elastic can fail overtime.
The good news is that the leather pen loop will gently mould to whatever you keep in it; so if you prefer something a little wider than a standard pen, it’ll adapt over a day or so. It comfortably fits the pens and pencils we stock, as well as most standard sizes such as the Uni-ball Eye. Hopefully that helps you find the perfect match for your cover!
The scent you noticed will be from our waterproofing treatments; they’re freshly applied before dispatch and will fade completely once aired.
We just wanted to share this information so you can get the very best use and longevity from your Cahier cover. Thanks again for your support, we really appreciate it!
