IT is full-grain leather notebook, so the leather is thicker, however it is very soft. The paper is just okay, but it is a standard size (A5), so can easily be replaced. I wish Drop would re-run them and potentially in smaller size
I bought this as my new notebook for court, and I couldn't be happier.
The leather is of fantastic quality, the texture is smooth, and the feel, well, is premium.
The only quibble is that the fitting of the notebook insert into the leather can become bunched up and takes a moment to reset before being able to close the notebook again. Minor complaint to an otherwise fantastic product.
I was expecting the finish of the leather cover to be top notch from a company like this however the notebook I received felt like a chinese knockoff and quality on par one would expect from a knockoff. Paper in the notebook is ok but again lacks finishing. I am comparing to something like a run of the mill leuchtturm or a moleskine
I collect these things. I'm a chronic note-taker, so I like having something with me to jot things down. I love when I find one with a nice leather cover that I can refill. This one is the nicest. The shade of blue is one I've never seen anywhere. The size is also a plus - not huge, but large enough to write in comfortably.
