Inkleaf Leather Moleskine Covers

[redshifteffect]

Looks excellent! Love the flap, and with a cover that fits the webbies I think this is a winner.

[Bogie]

I'm glad you guys like the new flaps. My fiancee and I work very hard on the design of these and it's tremendously satisfying for that work to be appreciated. I have to say though, with our upcoming promotions, I'm a bit concerned about being able to keep up with demand. As I've said elsewhere, these are all completely hand-made and no machine ever comes into the process. That takes time. We can produce about 20-30 a week between the Webbies and the Moleskines. So my advice if you're interested is to buy early when they become available again because our promotions start in roughly two weeks and I fully expect to be backordered through Christmas. If we could make them faster we would, but we don't want to use a machine for stitching. Primarily because lock stitches are weaker (which is what a machine does) and because the thread is less substantial than what we use. Plus we just enjoy the satisfaction of having done it all by hand.

Lovely stuff, but for the life of me I can't find prices anywhere! My wife is looking for a daily organizer that she can refill every year. Any help with that would be appreciated.

[Bogie]

The prices are currently 38.00 for the small (whether Moleskine or Webbie) and 48.00 for the large. These are introductory prices though, and they'll eventually go up to 45.00 and 55.00 which will be their normal price.

Thanks kindly. I'll run it by my wife.

Almost there guys. We're making the new Moleskine and Webbie covers right now. They take some time to stitch, but we're aiming to be back up in the next few days.

Hi,

 

Am a newbie, so glad I found this thread - been hunting a quality leather covered journal and your covers are amazing!

 

How do we order? I visited your website but it says no orders available yet, please let us know when we can get one!

Thanks! We're glad you like them! Once we list the covers for sale they'll appear on our etsy page and be available for purchase. We're looking into having our own shop apart from etsy in the future, but for the moment we're too busy making leather. Small Moleskine and Webbie covers MAY be available today with large covers following tomorrow, but that might slip a day depending on how much we can get done.

Keep watching your shop page waiting to pull the trigger on one small (Buffalo Brown) and one large (Mahogany) Webbie cover! If I want to get them without the rivets, should I submit that as a custom order?

 

Edit: just got my answer looking at the Moleskine versions you put up -- looks like I just make a note on the "message to seller" when I checkout -- cool!

Waiting for the big ones

[Bogie]

As you guys I'm sure realized from Schadorider's post, our small Moleskine and Small Rhodia Webbie covers are now available on our shop again. Large one's for both will be coming soon. You can find everything here:

While you guys are waiting on the large covers, I thought I'd show you one of our prototypes.

Now you're just being a tease. That's a gorgeous bag though.

[pctechies]

Really loving the bag. What kind of price range are we looking at for one?

[Bogie]

We're not quite sure yet on price. We're still working to perfect our design and when we've reached that point, we'll tally up the cost of materials and the amount of labor and see what might be a fair range.

[Stargazer34683]

Greaaaaaaaaaaat make a nice bag right AFTER I fork over 250$ for one lol

For what it's worth this one won't be available for sale for a while yet. Maybe the other one will have an unfortunate encounter with a pitbull before then.

[redshifteffect]

I actually like the rivets, seems like it would provide extra protection at key stress points, is that the reason you are using them?

[Bogie]

Yes, the rivets on this bag are all structural. Generally speaking, the stress will be on the rivets before it ever gets to the stitching, though the stitching is incredibly strong in it's own right.

[pctechies]

The wait on the large webbies is killing me. :-) I probably have checked the etsy site 8 times a day for the past week. Any update by chance?
