Notebook Zipper Cover

I’m a bit notebook obsessed and absolutely LOVE this journal cover! So useful and I’ve purchased them in other sizes, as well. I have two with elastic closures and one with a zipper. Love them both! IN A NUTSHELL: This cover could be useful for anyone who might need a notebook in a variety of settings, including in the field and while traveling. Engineers, students, and medical workers come to mind… but also artists and writers. EDC peeps would probably like this cover, too, or the smaller options. It’s high quality, useful, and unique. Excellent value and to be honest, I’ll probably buy another lol. I highly recommend this journal cover and brand! More details are below. PROS: - Sturdy pockets + pen holder. - Keeps closed and organized. - Easy to carry or throw in your bag. - Makes organization easier on the go. - Plenty of room for pens and small supplies. - Room for 2 journals or more. You can fit a second A5 journal in the interior left side slot, and maybe another thin one in the slot I use for pens. - Interior pockets for business cards, post-it tabs, small art tools or templates, etc. The pockets are big enough for those tiny Voilant Moleskine notebooks or a pocket calculator. - Sturdy and practical with a wide variety of applications and uses. - Great price for the value I’ve gotten out of it. - There’s a zipper option for sale if that interests you. CONS: I honestly can’t think of any. It’s met and surpassed my expectations. I’ve found tons of uses for it and I’m sure it could be useful for you, too. Notes: • There’s a leather-ish tab attached to the band that makes it easier to close. It could be mistaken for a pen holder. I’ve never used it for a pen (it’s too small). I’m not sure it’s meant for a pen… just a heads-up on that. You have plenty of room anyway. :) • Someone mentioned smell… I experienced zero problems and no strange smell. USE: I use these covers for many things—meeting/business notes, class notes, work, even for some of my sketchbooks. I swap out whatever notebook I need (make sure the size fits your needs before you buy). It protects the paper and keeps everything together if I have loose notes or business cards stored. It’s been helpful at conferences and meetings. I love that all my Kokuyo notebooks and flexible spiral sketchbooks fit! Basically, this journal cover is perfect for everything. Go ahead and buy it if you made it this far!

Bought this a year ago. It is still working and looks great. I bought a cheap plain planner from Walmart and it has been the best planner I have ever had. I can actually put it in my purse because I like big purses. I take it with me everywhere I go. It has pockets on the inside to put my debit card if I don't want to take my purse. I love the strap on the side that I can stick my hand through and hold it nice a snug. I love the pockets on the outside to hold my pens. I will be depressed if they ever change the design. This is one of my most priced possession. I am not the most organized and I get planners and then don't use them. This has made it easy to keep organized because of the size and it zips and I can stuff papers in it until I get home and can take care of it. Update: It has nearly been 3 yrs since I purchased this and it’s still going strong. The front pocket where I still my pens are slightly worn. Best thing is my husband now relies on it. We take it to every Dr appointment for ourselves and elderly father and we open it up when the girl makes the next appointment and we write it down right then. I put the cards they fill out in the pockets and I give them to my FIL for his reminder or we tape them to a spot in our home for us.

I was trying to find some journal covers that would fit the following criteria: 1) must cover at LEAST front and back (the all around zipper is a plus but not necessary) 2) It had to have pockets that could fit at least 2 pens, a thin packet of sticky notes, a mini tape ripper for washy tape, and my washy tape roll 3) It had to be big enough to fit my soft cover journals (they are A5) - a huge plus if they can fit a hardcover A5 journal but not mandatory 4) It should leave minimal if not NO damage to the soft journal when all writing tools are inside and slight pressure is applied outside (this is to simulate travel in a back pack or in a suit case) 5) Items should not easily spill out when the journal cover is shaken (aka I don't want my writing tools to be damaged upon rough travel or accidently slip out if I carry it by itself). This test is more important on journal covers that do not have a zipper that goes all the way around but also if it does have a zipper the contents inside shouldn't be moving around like crazy as this can cause unpredictable damage to said soft cover journal. Here are the following results of my test: 1) The journal gets full coverage!! Front, back, all the sides. (10/10) The zipper is a great addition for much thinner journals (<100 pages) - more exploitation later 2) It has a LOT of pockets for pens and sticky notes though anything thicker than a sticky note prove difficult and I could not fit my washy tape. These are the bare essentials that I use when I write on the go. (8/10). Gains points for extra pen pockets. Losses points because limited space for slightly ticker writing tools. 3) The journal is big enough to fit an A5 standard journal. My soft cover journals have some lead way to their own covers and it fits the entire cover. (10/10) Just to test it's limits, the journal cover did not want to close comfortably with a hard cover journal putting some stress on the zipper and the lining. But again, not a mandatory test but one more out of curiosity. 4) Here's the big kicker and where that zipper functionality becomes sorta useless. All my journals are around 200-250 pages. I find journals less than <100 would greatly benefit with this journal cover. However, anything more than that and you're risking your tools and your cover being damaged. The picture and the dimensions probably don't really give you good picture. My 200 page journal was the ONLY thing that fit in this journal cover. If I added a pen or my washy tape I could not close the journal cover much less zip it up. I did a VERY slight pressure test with what tools I could fit in the journal cover and it 100% left a sizable dent in my soft cover journal and defeated the purpose of why I wanted this product. (0/10) 5) Lastly, I noticed that unless your pens have the grip of god as their pen clip it's likely that everything would spill out if you do not zipper up the cover. It sorta holds everything together but sorta doesn't really cut it for me. (5/10) All in all I did return the product. However, it's because this product was not for me and did not meet my needs for when I travel and write. If you have a very thin journal, I think this works perfectly for you. But again, it's not a product for me.

This is the most perfect sketch/journal folio if I’ve ever seen one! Amazing quality, the YKK zippers are super smooth, all the elastics and materials used on the inside also feel superb. Truly nothing to complain about as far as quality. It also comes with an A5 notebook which is very nice. While I originally thought about using this for my iPad mini and notebook combo, I decided to just use it as a sketchbook/notebook as everything just fits together so nicely. The zipper is such a nice thing to have to keep everything secure when on the go. I really can’t find a single thing to complain about with this. I feel certain it will last a long time and I will continue recommending this to anyone and everyone looking for a notebook folio! 10/10, highly recommend and would buy again! 😄

This was exactly what I was looking for. It holds a ton of pens and it fits a thick A5 notebook too. Perfect to take my notebook everywhere I go.

This journal cover is exactly what I was looking for. It fits all the standard A5-sized journals like the Leuchtturm 1917, Rhodia Goalbook, and Moleskine Classic. It is a great protector if you are going to carry your journal in a bag and don't want to get the pages banged up or if you want to keep a few supplies with your journal. The zipper is smooth but also substantial. It is a YKK which means it should continue to be smooth and last as long as the rest of the cover. The cover is made of a tough nylon material which should resist wear and provide good longevity. I am glad that Diodrio makes this cover, because all the other covers out there seem to think everyone just wants a leather flap on the outside of their journal that provides no protection. I want mine to survive in my backpack without being beaten to bits by the time I get to the end of the journal. Glad I found this. There were no reviews or ratings for this product when I purchased it, so I took a leap of faith, and it was worth it!

I love this notebook and case. I was looking for something to keep in my glove compartment that would hold my proof of insurance and registration, but would also have a notepad with a place for a pen, so I had it in emergencies or if I needed to leave a note on someone's car for parking too freaking close. This is perfect! It's high-quality, the perfect size for my glove compartment, good-looking, and fit for purpose. I see this as being the kind of notebook I'd want to have for travel journals, which I think was its original intent, but I really think it's fantastic for keeping your car registration and things together.

I am so impressed with this cover. It fits my Zequenz A5 notebook. The notebook is a hefty one but still fits perfectly. I love the pen pockets in the front. I can fit up to 8 pens. There’s also handy pockets inside as well as one on the back. I do not have to remove the notebook to write in it. The cover acts as a handy writing area. The handle does not get in the way of writing. No weird lumps. Very well thought out cover. Would love some other colors but I get the black. It’s meant to be a rugged sturdy cover. Despite being rugged and sturdy it’s still a lightweight cover. Loving it! Would definitely buy another cover from this company.

Muy funcional. Tiene suficiente espacio. Buena hechura y muy resistente.

Great size, fits my work diary in perfectly. Handy slots inside for pen and pieces of paper. Came with a notebook, which was a good extra.

Highly recommend this product, with YKK zipper, Top Quality.

This is a good quality and handsome-looking folio. After using it for a couple of days, I must say I am pleased with my purchase. The folio is just the right size to hold an A5 size notebook (e.g. Moleskin Journal). It is actually also able to hold an A5-plus size notebook (e.g. Dingbats Journal). Happy with this product.

I really like this journal zipper bag or case because you can keep everything you need in one place ready for your next project and I really like that it has a zipper..
