Levenger Carezza Leather Pen Sleeves

[ink-syringe]

Levenger Carezza Leather Pen Sleeves on Massdrop.

 

No affiliation, but in full disclosure I joined the drop as I always thought those cases looked really nice and look to have more cushion than many other sleeves.

 

They have single, double and triple.

 

I have tried all manner of pen doodads and I think i am just a sleeve person (easy access) and the sleeves I have now don't fit some pens larger pens (though I don't think these sleeve will fit a M1000 or a 149, they do look like the would fit a M800 or 146 or PFM size and smaller).

 

Just a heads up PSA, etc.

PS. Anyone with one of these have an opinion?

You give no link. So, how are we to give you any idea of whether you should purchase or not? Do you think others might also be interested in the Massdrop? Since Massdrop, as I recall is based on how many people also join up to acquire the item. A head's up requires more information than telling others "hey, there is a Massdrop for a pen case, do you think it will fit a large pen? Just an opinion, how about providing a link to the Massdrop? Just sayin....

 

P.S. Massdrops are shared among us routinely, we give the disclaimer, but we also provide a link so that others who may also be interested can also participate if they choose to do so. Having done it repeatedly as simply fun and sharing with the community, no disrespect intended. No, don't work for them, simply enjoy sometimes the process and discounts due to others who also join in and make the final price lower.

The problem with providing a link is folks think you are trying to get points via referrals or whatever and I know eBay links are also not allowed (and not sure if MD ones). I figured you all could ask Monsignor Google, he is super good at finding stuff. Comes up pretty quickly if you do a search and also just type massdrop.com in your browser magically takes you there and the very top the very first thing you see is a search bar.

 

But there you go:

Again, for the record I am in anyway. I am not asking whether or not I should buy, I did commit. Just a PSA. An above google PSA.

 

The other bit is merely Post Script, by the way.

 

(& here I thought I was doing a good deed)

The M1000 slips in easily and peeks out the top only by 1-2 mm. The M800 fits perfectly.

You are. I wouldn't have known about this otherwise. Sorry, but anyone with half a brain and a computer can find Massdrop online, there's no need to get pissy over not having a link to a well-designed site.

 

A j-subculture item, on the other hand, or eBay item...those are much different.

Good to know, esp. as I favor the M800 and it is the same size as the 146 and the PFM the only other oversize pens I have and almost always have one of those pens with me in my bag.

 

I do have am M1000, brand new, but dislike it and never take it with me anyway but it sounds like it mostly fits.

 

The pen sleeves I have now (redman) only fit more slender pens. The fattest pen I can fit in them is the Lamy 2000. So it will be nice to have a cushioned sleeve that fits my fanciest pens.

Sorry to bump this, but I want to just put a coda on this drop. The sleeves arrived and they are just about perfect. I love them and only regret not buying a couple more. They give really nice protection, appear to be quite well made, and bonus for having inner linings that hang on to the pen a little. My Omas sleeve is retired because it is so loose and so slick on the inside that pens often fly out of the sleeve. The other sleeves I have don't give quite the protection these do or don't fit large pens. These are really nice. Big thumbs up on these Pen sleeves. I requested the drop again hoping they will be available some time soon. To get more protection than this you'd have to use a case. I am a, for better or worse, a sleeve person and these are the best I have used so far. Thumbs up and as reported the Pelikan M805 and the MB 146 fit very nicely indeed. Thanks.

Remember that it never goes unpunished.

These are back. Due to popular demand.

 

Again. No affiliation with Levenger or Massdrop but I was very pleased with these sleeves. They are a great size and shape, look nice and provide as good protection as I think possible with only a sleeve. They have a nice cushion and unlike some sleeves (OMAS I am looking at you) they are not so slick on the inside that the pen just comes flying out of the sleeve.

 

I am getting a few more.

Thank you for posting this. I was just starting to look for pen sleeves when my 10 year old mentioned, a few days ago (when we finally received her blue green Lamy Al-Star blue from an April Massdrop), that she wanted her own pen sleeve like the Sula Jane & Earl leather 2-pen sleeve I have. The SJ&E pen sleeves came in bright colors that kids would find attractive. I may let her have one of my pink or blue SJ&E pen sleeves and pick up one (or more) of these Levenger Carezza sleeves for myself.

 

It's good to know my Lamy 2000 will fit in the Carezza. Is it also snug enough for smaller M400 sized pens so that they don't slide out?

It's a very versatile sleeve I have fit everything in there nicely and because it is somewhat plush it holds the pens snug. My 400nn fits well as does my 146, PFM and M805. I have a small pen that disappears completely in the sleeve (old OMAS lady's purse pen with wicked flex) which the sleeve eats whole and even that doesn't come out accidentally. The insides have almost a leather-like feel that keeps the pen from sliding freely.

I've received mine, and the case itself is simple and nice. I love the not-too-thick padding inside.

 

Sadly many of my pens (Nakaya, and two of the Montblanc writer editions) peak out of the top by a few mm, so if you're considering this case be aware that it only fits shorter pens.

I received my double pen sleeve from the drop today.

It accommodates small to medium pens: two Lamy Safaries or pens of about that size.

Very nice sleeve indeed, but I am a little dissapointed that they are made in China...
