I have to add a vote to those who are sold on Renaissance Art -- I ordered a cover for the Moleskine planner, and it was *very* nice - enough that I turned around and ordered another one for the regular Moleskine journal, and a messenger bag. (According to the web site, bags typically ship in 5-7 days; mine *arrived* in 2 days. I'm sure not all orders are turned around this fast, but I was impressed!)

The leather is sturdy and still supple, with great character, and the construction and craftsmanship seems first-rate. Highly recommended!

Ditto. I ordered a large Moleskine pouch on March 30th, it shipped the next day and arrived yesterday. I made a note that I wanted it dark, black if possible. To my delight it was indeed black. The leather is nice and supple. This will age very well. I am definitely happy as can be.

Another vote of confidence for Renaissance Art here.

From me too! I ordered a custom made cover. It is perfect for my apica notebook!

I bought a portfolio second hand and the leather is amazing, the whole thing looks like it came from ages ago and can last another few hundred years.
