rafaelpapWhile I have not used this journal's paper before, the description states that the paper weight is 90 gsm which is on par with Clairefountaine and Rhodia. Typically, 90 gsm paper has almost no bleed through or feathering.

The previous Manufactus Carstel Lached one has the locking mechanism protruding behind the left flap when you are writing and the Manufactus No-Bag has the two studds used for the belt holes also protruding. The Manufactus Roma won't have those problems but isn't as fully wrap-around as this one. I think this is Manufactus' best journal cover that Massdrop has ever offered. And the wide-range of sizes and colors are pluses too.
