Just back at my desk after a month of tramping around the Western Isles of Scotland. I'm a writer, so I always have a Moleskine notebook (for me it's the Cahier softside, 3x5) and a pen in my pocket. In soaking rains (plenty of those in the Hebrides, and in the mountains of Thailand, and so on...), my notebooks get damp and wrinkly, and sometimes the writing gets smeared.
I'd love a 3-sided-zip-around, Tom Binh notebook jacket, big enough for the hardback pocket-size Moleskines (which would be big enough for 2 of the Cahier style), and a full-size pen. Cordura, water-resistant zipper. It would live in my right pocket when I'm in the field, friend to the small organizer pouch that already lives in my left pocket, doing wallet service.
I've seen products that are sort of like what I want, but I've been so spoiled by the workmanship and materials of my TB stuff, and by the company's service, that those other notebook jackets just don't make the grade.
Think there might be a market for such a thing?
