“The marketing led me to believe this was a very high end product. I would say it’s a very nice product. Except for the art paper, I’ve been underwhelmed at the quality of the writing papers. The leather is very soft and nice to the hand but the little elastics to keep the pages in are not snug enough so everything flops around more than I’d like. I’ve invested in it, and it serves it’s purpose - and I don’t believe in creating undo waste, so I will continue to use it - but I will likely look for my own paper alternatives. $14 for a very small flimsy refill is rediculous. I could buy a brand new Moleskin journal of similar size with nicer paper for a comparable price.”
“I have a number of Paper Republic notebooks and notebook covers.
The notebook paper quality is very good for all types of writing tools.
I have notebook covers in various colours. The leather smells astounding and the leather is both resilient and beautiful. All covers age wonderfully. The leather wax is a multifunctional indispensable item. I’ve even used it successfully to polish out a water stain on a wooden cupboard door! Customer service at Paper Republic is outstanding.”
“The simplicity of the grand voyageur [xl] is wonderful. The rich colour of the leather, the ease of inserting booklets and books, and the range of available inserts fits my needs. I do not need flashy. Simple yet classic lines are my forte and the two leather journals I purchased give me that and more.”
“Alles van Paper republic is top. Enig minpuntje was deze keer de levering. Deze is nog steeds ‘pending’ maar we zijn overtuigd van de hoge kwaliteit. DDW”
