CAGIE Lined Journal for Men Soft Cover Notebook Leather Journals for Writing, 180 Lay Flat Vintage Mens Journal Personal Diary, 5.7'' X 8.3'', Black

I have a lot of journals and notebooks at home. I’ve wanted to start journaling since I was a kid, but could never commit to it. As an adult, every time I tried, I put it down, and a big factor was the journal I was using. Many are unpleasant to write it; they’re either incredibly elegant and you want to save it for something special, or the page sizes aren’t right, the binding is to thick or thin, the design is too bland, or there’s just something about the page that doesn’t sit right with you.This journal, on the other hand, I’m excited to keep going! Paired with a comfortable pen, it’s all perfectly right. It’s not too thick, but not too thin, it’s flexible, it’s elegant without being so overly elegant that you don’t want to use it, and fits nicely wherever you want to store it. On a shelf or on a table, it blends nicely, and it’s thin and flexible enough to keep in a drawer too. I’m only a few pages in, but I haven’t had an issue with ink bleeding through. All in all, it’s a practical, functional journal or notebook that isn’t bulky, isn’t too grand or too bland, and makes you look forward to the next entry!

This beautiful journal is worth every cent. (Actually more, but don’t tell the seller!)It’s definitely soft, it definitely lays-flat once the binder gets what you’re asking of it, and I’m loving the smoothness of the paper. So worth it

I love these notebooks. I’m currently working on writing 1000 of them. I’m up to 48. But, I need to order more, funds running low. I used to use hard cover notebooks, which was fine, but, I like the soft cover ones better. Keep making them because I have a long way to go.I love journaling this is my go to book. Please don’t stop making them. Love your products so very much. I’m obsessed with getting to the 1000 journal goal.

I use this to organize my grocery list, coupons, and whatever. I stuff things between its pages and plop it in the car seat next to me. It's an unusual use for a journal. I thought about using a file folder and paperclips, but this looks better.

The particular journal we received had a fold mark across the middle of the book. Otherwise, the book is very nice - a thin cover with well-conceived pages. I would but this again.

Just as described and pretty, thick leather

Perfect size - fits in handbag, laptop case ... easy to take along. Lovely pages, takes ink well and mess or smudge. I have already purchased another from these folks. Will be my go-to shop as I buy lots of journals/diaries and notebooks.

Lightweight and easy to manage. Better than most journals.
