I have mixed feelings... July 22, 2019 Verified Purchase

I have mixed feelings about this pen case. As a pen case, it does its job well-holding writing utensils, no doubt about it. But it's the little flaws that came with the product. Maybe I'm just being nitpicky, so please take my opinions with a grain of salt.



First, I am very worried about the synthetic leather used outside the pen case. It is shinier than I expected when I compared it the pictures. The durability of this material is very questionable since it feels like it can be easily damaged by moisture (such as sweat from your hands or humidity) and simply peel away. But from the aesthetics and the looks, it looks great.



Now the inside, the makers of this product decided to use some sort of plastic or polyester material in the inside edges of the zipper, and my god, it makes a lot of noise. The sound is similar to crushing a bag of ships. Even the large zippers, though aesthetically pleasing, also makes a lot of noise. If you don't want every student looking at you in a quiet class while opening your pen case, then I really recommend that you don't buy this. ( I have a better suggestion to buy at the end of this review)



Lastly, the strap holding the pens is not made of garter (the material that has that stretch-resistant quality that you'd usually find in other pen cases of this kind) and if your pen case isn't full, the pens will usually slide around since the surface texture inside the pen case is very slippery, and the pens are simply hanging from the polyester band, not even touching the bottom of the pen case.



Again, maybe I'm just being too neat-picky. I'll use this pen case more once school starts and maybe my opinions will change.



The pen case I was using before this was the "LIHIT LAB Pen Case, 9.4 x 1.8 x 3 inches, Brown" that I bought from amazon. I used it for my senior year of high school last year, and I fell in love with it. The shape of the pen case makes it very fun to carry around (and it even makes you look intellectual lol). I simply love the way you can easily open it and leave it open without taking up much space. It also has lots of carrying space and 2 additional compartments. And it's much much less noisy than this Cubix pen case.
