Moleskine Classic Notebook Soft Cover Large 5 x 825 Ruled Lined Black 192 pages S07162

I love Moleskin notebooks. The leather is always good quality, the spine stays strong for years. The lines are helpful for writing, but light enough they won't really show in a doodle or sketch. Great value for what it costs. These notebooks are always high quality, clean. Lends for a real professional look. The elastic strap to keep it closed has held up for 7 years on my last notebook, far longer than most. Even the paper has a nice quality and weight to it. If you've never had one, try it. You'll never go back. Read more

The moleskin line has become a new staple in daily use planners, note takings and organization. They absolutely at a higher price point, but after several months of use and multiple orders I can honestly say they are well worth the price. Specifically the major reason why this is a better notebook. 1) Limited Page Bleed Through / Heavier Stock - I use darker ball point pins and the ink does not bleed through to the reverse side 2) Easy Flexing - Does not require strain to write near the spine (middle) of the notebook / opens nicely so I can use the entire page from edge to edge 3) Quality Construction - Through daily monthly use, pages and spine do not separate. 4) Multiple Sizes - I like the fact I can now get a quality notebook in multiple size to cover different organization needs. All around a great notebook, even at the elevated price point if you looking for a sturdy organizer that can withstand daily abuse and be your go to, this is it. Read more

As per my review of the small, cahier Moleskin, I also use this larger size, lined notebook. It has a soft, supple cover; and the pages are a joy, and I mean a joy to write in. You WANT to write in it. I've been using Moleskins since 2005. I use them at the office to document problems and resolutions, I use them as a photographer out in the field to record photo notes, diagrams as needed, travel expenses; and I put the receipts in the small folder pockets at the back until I return to home base. These books are just so amazing to write with. It's a more personal experience. I could just as easily open up a note app, or voice memo app on my iPhone or iPad and do the same but to me you lose touch with the sensual feeling of just writing. The notebook has a soft cover, the pages are lined and spaced evenly. I write in it with a rollerball, or fountain pen and the pages never bleed, nor smear. So overall if you are looking for a gorgeous, comfortable notebook to use in the field, in your travels, or at Starbucks, this is your book. Enjoy. Read more

I took a break from moleskine products for 5 years after being dissappointed by the inconsistent paper quality. But here I am now, I bought another because I heard they are stepping up their game on consistency. I have also become more educated about paper weight over the years, and now I know exactly what to expect from 70 gsm paper: i.e. I know that it CAN handle some fountain pens and inks, but not all. I know it can handle SOME gel pens but not bold or wet ones. Tombow brush pens did well. Bottom line, it's a mixed bag, try this paper for science, if you like...I know it's not as wonderful as tomoe river paper or Clairfontaine or Leuchtturm, but I found a pen that makes this paper really enjoyable to use and I'm excited to use this as my next journal. It's nostalgic for some reason and I dig it. My favorite pen to use on this paper is the Sharpie pen, felt tip, 0.8. It's as smooth as a fountain pen with minimal ghosting, no bleedthrough. I recommend this pen if you like a flowing writing experience. FYI, the softcover has 192 pages, not 240 like the listing says. (The hardcover moleskine page count is 240.) Read more
