Received my pouches!
I'm very happy with the A5 size, and I like it in the heavier 525 Nebulous Grey fabric. It fits my softcover Leuchtturm notebook, as well as the thicker hardcover version. (I did not try it with the Jottbook, but as that is smaller than the first two, it should be fine as well.) Either can fit alongside my iPad Mini and a few folded 8.5x11 papers, though the former more comfortably.
I also liked the other two pouches, though I haven't figured out exactly how I'll use them. The small is in aubergine, which is lovely, and the first time I've seen this color in the new 525. I got the mini pouch in Viridian so it will be hard to lose, and in keeping with my new system of Viridian travel gear.
All of these pouches seem to be useful sizes, and I believe that the flat shapes will make them easier to pack inside of other bags. The zippers that cover two sides are brilliant.
Sadly, I'm not as happy with the Packing Cube Shoulder Bags due to the changes in attachment points, but I'll post about that separately in the relevant thread. For sure, I'll be ordering more of the Ghost Whale pouches.
Update: A5 Ghost Whale Organizer Pouch with two Leuchtturm Jottbooks, iPad Mini, and some paper.
