I’ve been a leather crafter for over 25 years. If it says anything but “full-grain” or “top-grain” leather, chances are that it’s fake. “PU leather” and “Vegan leather” - not to be confused with veg-tan - are vinyl. “Genuine leather” is made from leather dust mixed with glue, rolled flat, and a vinyl top layer applied (it is literally trash). Many cheap leather goods from the Middle East and Asia are made with goat leather. Typically - even though it is actual leather - the quality is poor, the leather is really thin, and it often smells terrible due to the way it’s tanned. In short, quality leather is more costly so if it looks like a screaming deal, chances are high that it’s not worth buying.
Thank you for those definitions.
This is great to know. 👍🏼👍🏼
Very generous of Esterbrook for supplying the pen roll! Would be nice to own a canvas pen roll someday!
Thanks Doodlebud. Good timing to help form a decision for extending storage for inked pens. Rolling out pens was the final decider.
I love these videos. They make fountain pens seem much more attainable and casual. Some reviews are so formal. I appreciate the every day approach
Thank you for your videos. I enjoy learning and you sharing your experiences.
I enjoy your videos and the technical approach you take with your reviews and observations.
Helpful! Made me think about choosing a case if l am just chucking my pens into a bag or placing them. As l have my first Estie on its way it would be great to have it rolled up and placed safely on the table.
You’ve got me hooked into the world of fountain pens. Excited to be a new member of the hobby. Hope you and your family have a merry Christmas
Another great video. It's always nice to see info on pen cases of various types.
These look amazing. I am going have to pick one up. I somehow went from 1 to 4 pens in no time. Already have my eye out for a 5th.
Thank for sharing your thoughts on these. I really like the cigar box idea too.
Appreciate your analytical approach to testing and reviewing. Keep up the strong work and thanks for the occasional give away!
Thank you so much for the educational aspect of your channel. I recently started getting into fountain pens. You have been a great resource for my journey. Thank you!
Nice collection, especially the cigar boxes. Going to have to source a few of those. Thanks for the great video!
Nice video. I especially enjoy your pen tune-up videos. I have learned a lot and improved my pens. Thank you
Expected a super niche fountain pen tool, but was pleasantly surprised the topic followed the thumbnail. Attainable storage has been on my mind with the ever-increasing pen collection.
Those Esterbrook pen rolls have that cool vintage look, at least to me. Also that Esterbrook petrified forest looks awesome.
Really enjoy watching your posts and reviews thank you have great week
I forgot to add I adore the 45 fabrics cloth cases. Have wanted one for some time now, just haven't pulled the trigger. Your cigar boxes are amazing! What a special skill to magically convert a special vintage item into a useful addition to your collection. I'm also pining for the Easterbrook cloth pen cup or pen roll. Love their stuff...
I have a few more ideas for the cigar boxes buts it's all about time. To do some really cool stuff requires detailed work, nice finishing, dry time waiting, etc. Unfortunately with a 4 & 6 yr old and running my own business I just don't have the time to do some really cool stuff. So this method for the cigar boxes seemed to be a good balance of outcome to build time.
Thanks for your information.
In Mexico we do not have that kind of pen rolls.
Very nice
Greetings from Mexico
Great review, DB. And some great ideas , for future purchases. Thanks. KB
I have been reluctant to try the pen rolls. Thanks to this video, I really want one now.
I love these pen rolls! Thank you for another great video.
Rethinking and trying to consolidate my pen storage options so this is a timely video. Thanks
Thanks DB for another informative video. I’m a FP newbie and have the first case you showed. Thanks also for the nib tuning vids I watched this weekend.
Those look very nice! My wife got me the Cherry Blossom case for Christmas and it's fantastic. I've been looking at the Esterbrook as well. A friend of mine really likes them roll and the cup they make
Hey Johnathon you were picked today on my 4th attempt to give it to someone. Email me at thedoodlebud@gmail.com
@@Doodlebud will do!
Lovely for all my various fountain pen!
I have a 3 pen case from Lamy and a leather pen roll from fountain pen revolution. Live them both. Thank for sharing your your cases with us.
I have a leather pen roll that holds six pens. Was custom made by a buddy who does leather work. Great way to carry pens around.
Thanks for the ideas. I think it is time for me to improve my pen storage options.
I love the variety of pens that you own. I like the leather ones best, the green one is my next favorite since I carry them with me.
I really like the look of the Esterbrook roll. Looks comfy for my pens!
I don't have much in terms of storage, so I was just thinking of getting some new pen rolls for my new pens. Some gorgeous options here!
There's something satisfying about those magnetic flap cases, right? It's so cool to see so many different types of pen cases. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you for your videos, lots of interesting information!
Love those Esterbrook pen cases! I have been thinking about getting my sewing machine out and making something. My cup runeth over with pens.
Right now I'm using old eyeglass cases, a small bamboo box I think came with some cooking spoons and spatulas, and a hand made ceramic pot I found at the thrift store, and my felt lined desk drawer and it's organizer.
Super generous of Esterbrook to give you an extra for us!! Love the channel, keep it up Doodlebud!!
The Esterbrook pen rolls look really nice. Your cigar box creations are great. I’ll have to check out your construction video to see if I could make one.
Great video as always. I appreciate the overview. Very informative!
I was surprised and excited to see that this video was about pen storage. I sewed myself a couple cases when I started the hobby this past November (one for upstairs, one for downstairs). I couldn't imagine throwing them all in a pencil case after spending $6-35 per pen!
I only have 'starter' pens right now, and I house the inked ones in a Luddite Liberator Cordura Round Zip Pen Case - long pockets protect the bodies of my Metropolitans, and my Preppys, Kakunos, and Sports fit nicely in the opposing mesh pockets. Would love to upgrade my pen case game someday, I like the look of the leather and magnet cases a lot, but the pen roll has a certain nostalgic feel as well!
Just found your channel. The rolls are beautiful!
I wish my bed was as comfy as these pen rolls!
Very cool topic! I use a clear plastic organizer from the craft store but need more dividers.
Those rolls are beautiful! I love how simple they are while being so functional.
I swear I hear a faint "ahhhhhhhhhh" from the pens when I tuck them into the roll 😂. They just look comfy in there
Those pen rolls are really nice looking. Winning one will give me another excuse to buy another pen.
This was an informative video. I hope you will post a video on the transformation of the treasure chest to a pen case. Can’t wait for the drawing for the Esterbrook pen roll. My fingers are crossed!
I haven’t ever used a pen roll before but now I’m going to have to take a closer look!
Have had my eye on those rolls. They look pretty nice!
Wow! Love this video and all the pen storage options you have shown. I do have a vinyl zippered case that could fit about 24 pens -about the size of a large notebook. But I'm thinking about getting a pen roll case like those oh so very well made Esterbrook. I need something to carry my 16 pens safely in my handbag, in case of emergencies or so as I live in a earthquake prone zone. Thanks for describing in detail every one of the cases. Lovely video.
I was thinking of getting one of the Esterbrook pen cups, they look like a great way to display pens on your desk while keeping them ready to move.
Its surprising how much good storage can change things
Pen storage is vital to the hobby. I currently have a cigar box that I need to add some slots in. Love the various design options they have to offer. Thanks for going through all the options! My EDC is a Nock Sinclair with a 2 pen coozy from Rickshaw.
I like green, pens and your channel! Good luck 🤞🏻 everyone.
Very informative video. Your cigar boxes look great.
I have been crocheting my own fountain pen cases for a little while now. I love to customize for length, width and style. So relaxing. Great video, as usual, Doodle Meister! 👑🔥
Do you provide patterns?
Hi DB 😊 Entering the drawing. Whenever I drop a favorite coffee cup, I glue it back together and it's a pen stand. Love your work 🖋️
Those pen rolls look nice. Thanks for the great videos!
Very interesting to see your different pen storage!
New to the channel and LOVE the content! Happy you came across my feed!
Great looking pen roll. And thank you for the recent give aways.
For long term storage I’ve ended up preferring boxes for my storage. The galen leather pen and ink storage boxes are very nice. The only problem is they like a lot of storage can’t hold a Ranga Model 5. When I ordered a Santini Giant 8 I decided to find something that would fit it and the model 5s and picked up a Toyooka Craft box and it has been great! I usually have a couple single pens sleeves and a three pen sleeve or two for my currently inked.
Love the look of those rolls. Thanks for the suggestions.
I have a bunch of cases, too. My current fave is the Galen leather 5 pen zippered case because you can carry an A6 notebook inside and it is very compact.
Both versions of those new Esterbrook cases look great.
Very nice pen holders from Esterbrook. I like the cigar box pen cases you made. I am planning to try making one someday. Thanks for your videos. I have a couple pen cases from Galen Leather. A 40 pen case and a 3 pen case. The quality of Galen is outstanding. I would love to try that pen roll from Esterbrook. Fingers crossed 😊
Truly appreciate the Canadian suggestions! Thank you
Greetings Doodlebud, great video as usual. I picked up the leather 6 pen case from Ali in dark brown after watching your review & love it. Thanks for the great videos 😀
I bought an esterbrook pen cup right when they came out and I love it. I have no fear putting my pens in my backpack now and it looks great on my desk.
I use hard shell spectacles cases for my couple of Lamy safaris in different nib sizes and a vintage Montblanc slimline which was given to me when it wound up in my sister's purse after a bad date in the 80s.
At the moment I just store my pens underneath my monitor. On the go I clip the pen to a notebook and throw it in my bag. I was actually looking around for a storage solution, so thanks for this video!
Thanks for the info, and thanks for the offer. I've tried making a few of the sleeves. They're functional, but a long way from art.
Like I have said in the past you are on my video shortlist now... Beautiful Case.
Thanks for the useful review!!!
The cigar boxes look fantastic! I was so desperate that I made my own pen sleeve out of fabric and polyester batting. The stitchery is askew, but at least it's functional.
Nice pen storage video. Very Helpful
That's a very nice pen case. My pens would look great in any one of those. Esterbrook makes very nice stuff. Their pens are great.
_ Nice Presentation. The Esterbrook pen roll appears to be both practical and fairly luxurious in materials. Also like the 2-pen Girologio case.
Lovely color for the pen roll giveaway! I used to call my Dalmatian "Doodle" and he was my Bud. 🥰
Wow! Those are cool options. Love the range from cigar boxes to the beautiful Esterbrook roll pouches. Thanks.
Easterbrook rolls look wonderful. Nice of you to give one away - brave man! Thanks for showing your cigar box - I'm about to do that myself!
I'm about to get my 5th fountain pen, so I've been looking around at storage options and I came across the Esterbrook rolls. Fingers crossed!
Wow, so very awesome! Love your videos and how fun and interesting they are! You are so great at getting to the point and making great content! Would love to win the roll and just to see it in person! 🥳
The first 2 winners never reached out to me so you were picked on the 3rd round. Email me at thedoodlebud@gmail.com so you can claim you prize. You have until Fri March 24 at noon PST before I will pick another winner.
@@Doodlebud OMG, I never win anything! Even if you’re teasing me, you made my day!🥳
Wohoo! Awesome! I sent you an email, so hopefully you got it!
Awesome video! I bet you could have some fun with a diy insert for the beautiful cardboard box that the pen rolls came in. It certainly wouldn't be a travel case, but maybe a stationary case for extra pens. My personal favorite is a Galen leather 3 pen holder. It comes with a flap, similar to your fake leather case. No magnets, which works for me. I take it everywhere and fits perfect in my bag and even some shirt and pant pockets. Even works great on the plane. Before take off I take the case out of my bag and drop it in the seat pouch in front of your seat. Face up of course. After landing I grab my pen case and I'm on my way.
Love your videos!
I would be honored to own an Esterbrook pen roll; I have owned Esterbrook fountain pens since 1963 and have always enjoyed them. Thanks for your generosity and that of Esterbrook. I always enjoy your videos.
Thanks for doing the Esterbrook pen roll giveaway, and thanks to Esterbrook.
I was surprised that the venerable coffee didn’t make a showing.
Would love for you to do some ink comparisons with the engineering/science-y eye you use in your pen reviews. Keep up the great videos!
For the cheap zipper cases , I seem to store my pens the other way round compared to the way you do.
This way it seems I don't have to worry about the zipper scratching the pens , as I'd be pulling the pens out towards the center of the case , instead of towards the end of the case where the zipper is.
Watching all those pens organizers makes me want to make my own. Thx for the video.
It's always fun to watch your videos, you have quickly become my favorite pen youtuber because of the amount of detail you go into in your videos and the way you voice your videos.
Thank you for an honest and informative pen storage video, I’m a newbie so this is very helpful. I love the Esterbrook pen roll colours - stunning!
Looking forward to seeing the completed chest!
I like the Esterbrook pen cases. I have a couple of the hard cases. The blue with red stitching looks sharp.
Those smaller compartments in the pirate treasure chest looks quite right for spare nibs and such.
The Esterbrook pen roll would be perfect for the Xezo Visionary ;)! Great video Dooddlebud, as always! Looking forward to what you'll do with the chest.
I’m still at the DIY storage stage since funds are limited and I’m concentrating on pens, ink and paper! I did pick up a large zippered pen case made of synthetic materials. Cheap, Unaesthetic BUT functional. But, I found I stopped using the pens if they were tucked away. So, I just have my current inked ones nestled in an empty old leather zippered desk planner. They are resting on a piece of leather cut from an old leather pocket book and fitted inside the planner. I can fit about 6 pens which is about how many I ink at one time. When not picking out a pen, I simply close the planner as far down as it will naturally go without pressure on the pens. I wish I could figure out how to take the center binder rings out of it without destroying the spine. I don’t have any portable-on-the-go storage yet! So no fancy pen leaves the house. Just a preppy in my pocketbook! Ah well, life’s a challenge! Thanks for the video. Love your honesty and well informed videos as always! 🙋♀️❤️🖋
funny, I was just thinking of getting myself one of these.. doesn’t hurt that green is my favorite color as well!
I love storage and organization videos of any kind! I also started with some cheap options to start but then I got a Rickshaw roll for my nicer pens that are inked up and just fell in love! Thank you for sharing especially from a fellow Canadian! I really enjoy your thoughts on fountain pens!
I love the Rickshaw pen sleeves that I have. They have fun designs and the fleece lining means I never have to worry about my pens.
I have the exact same pen case, I insert my pens the other way in. So you game it out the other side and won't have to worry about the zipper
Yup that works
I can't believe that there's been 4 re-roles now! People are just too forgetful these days - I think that roll would suit my Sheaffer Valiant that's on the way.
Keep up the good work my friend!
I love what you do with found items like cigar boxes! I do that sort of thing myself. And, yes, I did start with coffee cups. I have to say that trying to get the roll right reminds me of rolling up my sleeping bag after a camp.
I eventually want a Galen Leather pen case. Right now I'm using two Rickshaw coozies and an unbranded cloth case.
Yeah Galen looks so nice!
