LIHITLAB Zipper Pen Case, 7.9 × 2 × 4.7 Inches, Black (A7551-24)

What can I say about this case? Im a pen/pencil freak. You other pen/pencil freaks out there know EXACTLY what one of our main problems is. We have too many pens/pencils and they end up in separate places. Invariably when you need a certain pen/pencil, it is of course, not in the case you have with you. After multiple instances of this, I thought that there HAD to be a solution to this problem. Well, seems like there is: I give you the Lihit Lab Triple Zipper case. Its sturdy, zippers look strong and sewn in well, it’s a nicely built product. Rather than blather on about it, just check out the picture with this review. EVERY thing in that picture fit into the case. Did it expand big and gaudy? Yes it did, but not the point where it feels that the stitching or zippers are becoming over stressed. I have room for 3 or 4 more pens or pencils. In case the picture doesn’t make it with the review, here are the details on my bags current holdings: 7 Wooden Pencils, 11 Mechanical Pencils, 5 Fountain Pens, 5 Ballpoint pens, 2 Pen Sized eraser holders,7 Brush pens, 10 Handheld erasers (6 Boxy, 4 Arch Foam), 7 packs of mechanical pencil lead (variable size and hardness), 2 Metal journal templates, 3 Hobinichi templates, an Ames Lettering Guide, a Line spacing template and the classic Eraser Shield. Wshew. Ill update this a little bit down the road, I’m curious about its durability. I think I’ll be happy, but we’ll see on down the road. Right now though, its easy to give it 5 stars. Heres to hoping it can keep em...

I am very particular about organization, and I have to admit, this case definitely meets my expectations. The material is durable and water-resistant, there is plenty of space inside, and the pockets are conveniently sized and located. The zipper glides smoothly. The case is flexible and collapsible but still holds a decent shape even when empty. I am using this case for school. The back pocket is just the right size to hold my TI-84, which takes up about 40% of the cases capacity. The three smaller pockets are great for pencil lead, hairbands, and flashdrives, or any other small items you need. The pocket bands are not elastic, but as long as you dont intentionally stretch them, they do a fine job of holding lesser used items. The front two sides I use to store writing utensils; between pens, pencils, and highlighters, I have about 10 things in the front pockets. They could hold much, much more, but I like the organization provided by being able to instantly see everything I have. Depending on where the pen clip is, it may not fit perfectly in either pouch, but that is easily rectified by switching it to the opposite holder. I dont really use the outside pockets of the case, but the first is credit-card sized and the second, index-card sized. Its nice to be able to store a quick note without having to open the case. Overall, I am very satisfied with this product. Compared to name-brand products in the same price range, I believe this case offers more organization and functionality. It also feels more durable than any comparable case Ive felt; I expect this case to last through at least a year of heavy use, if not more. I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for an everyday pencil case.

2020 edit: the black version I originally reviewed in 2017 is still in use, looks great, zippers are fantastic. The blue one I bought in April of 2019 however just broke: one of the zipper heads fell off. While I can still use it, it seems like theres a quality difference between the versions with the black logo and the ones with the red logo. YMMV. Pros: * Lots of storage for a variety of sized objects * Flattish design (as opposed to the tube design of many pen/cil cases) * Dirt resistant material is easy to clean * Can use for a variety of different supplies: medical, tools, art, food, utensils, toiletries * Zips open to lay flat Cons: * Materials that pockets and flap are made of limit what can be stored * Interior color is drab * Zipper pulls are thin and can be hard to grip This is a nice case, but not as nice as I was hoping it would be. I purchased the black version which has a brown interior. The brown is more drab and darker than it seemed online (think dirt instead of leather), and I do wish it was a bit brighter, but its not bad. The material is somewhere between canvas and vinyl, and looks very nice. It seems to be dirt resistant (rolled it around outside and on my dog) and wipes off easily. The flattish design helps this fit in messenger bags and briefcases or other flat carry bags more easily than its rounder cousins. The flatness and the zipper that goes around 3 of the 4 sides makes the case lay flat when completely unzipped, which is especially useful. The zipper pulls are thin and smooth, and arent easily gripped by large, wet, or arthritic fingers. Id much prefer traditional round zipper pulls for virtually any storage, but especially if using this as art or medical storage. Lots of pockets and storage options, however the pocket lips arent stretchy and the mesh is only a little stretchy. It makes it difficult to store things that are awkwardly sized in the pockets. In addition, the center flap that serves as a separator also serves as storage. This becomes a problem because of the lack of stretch; filling both sides of this flap causes obvious bending of the stiffening material the flap is made of (see photos). These pockets seem to be designed to hold mostly thin, flat things like stickers, paper clips, lead, school erasers, etc. In my test, I put a Staedtler eraser, kneadable eraser, roll of washi tape, and a cheapo school eraser in these pockets, with a set of Copic markers on the other side. There was noticeable bending of the center flap making me wary of putting anything else in these pockets, or anything differently shaped/sized. This limits the effectiveness of this product for many artistic (or other) uses. If the pocket lips were stretchier and the flap was stiffer, this would be a non-issue. The center flap pocket is also not a rectangle, but more of a rounded rectangle. This makes the left and right sides of the flap have a shorter vertical storage space than the middle of the flap, so it will definitely limit what might be able to be carried there. I could fit only 5 Copic markers; a 6th would have stuck out and prevented the case from closing. See my photo; I have only 5 there, but you can see near the bottom of the photo [left side of the pouch when vertical] how the curvature of the pocket would prevent more being stored. The outer pockets are best for small, flat things that you wont mind that they might get lost. When fully packed, I couldnt put anything substantial in these pockets, and because they dont have any stretch Id be wary of putting anything not flat in them anyway for fear of breaking the seams or stretching the pockets out of shape. However, if I were using this as a desk storage pouch (as opposed to a travel one) these would be great pockets to store erasers or small rulers or post-it notes. For the price, overall its a nice little storage case. I hope this review helps someone else!

I owned this for quite a few years now and its still going strong.

Really enjoying this pen case for carrying a lot of every day items (pens, flashlight, work key, additional keys, first aid, some otc meds, and additional credit cards). Ive been trying to slim down what I carry in my pockets to just phone, slim (3 card) wallet, and 2 keys. But I like to have several things with me just in case. So Ive been throwing anything additional that Id like to have near me into the case and the case I usually keep in the car or backpack. Really surprised at the durability and quality of the case. I wish there were a little more pockets and organizer. Please let me know if you guys design a case that is less pen/pencil oriented please!

This is a pretty sizable pen case which will hold around 7 regularly sized writing utensils on each side. If you do have pens which have very small or tight pen clips, you may find it difficult to insert/remove the pens because there arent any elastic loops, rather just two rows to attach pen clips to. Also, a pen may not fit if the top of the pen is far above the clip. For example, the Pentel GraphGear 1000 fits, but not well on either side of the case. The pockets on the back of the middle flap are honestly too small and arent elastic enough to fit things more useful than a few tubes of extra leads or cap erasers. The large pocket on the back is decent, but theres nothing except empty space above it which leaves that space a little useless because theres nothing to secure items in place. Overall, the product is good looking and has decent build quality, but has a few usability flaws which leave some to be desired.

I bought this to carry my type I diabetes supplies (insulin pens, blood test meter and strips etc. I also vary a couple glucose tablet tubes in here, along with some other accessories. It is a compact, well divided space for all of my essentials with nice zippered compartments. I needed something this size to fit in my crossbody shoulder bag/ briefcase for work. After my journal and planner get stuffed n, there isn’t a lot of room for anything bulky. This case fits perfectly.

Bought this for a friend. It can hold a lot of stuff. My only complaint is some stuff can move around in the straps easily.

Really REALLY great. Best pencil case Ive found and used in my last 7 years or so of arting. It can fit long pens, markers and pencils as well. No problem-o. When items such as pencil sharpeners as placed in the pockets on the backside of the flap, the flap bows which is unfortunate. I have been putting the sharpener just resting above my travel palette because it is the perfect size, but it does tumble out when I open the case which is not ideal. But this only discernible con thus far after 3 weeks of use. I love that I can see all of my pens and pencils without them thumbling about in a one large pocket. I can also fit a small palette for my gouache and 2 water-brushes next to it in the back pocket. I often find myself just opening it to survey the troops. They are poised and ready for action. Wonderful soldiers and friends. Update: After about a month of daily use (it goes everywhere with me), the fabric on the piped seams is fraying slightly and beginning to wear down on the corners...not great. This in addition to the floppy/bowed nature of the flap have caused me to down-grade my review to 4 stars.

i was watching some organizing school supplies video on YouTube and a very organized and studious youtuber bought this so Id thought I would buy one myself to be like her. IT WAS THE BEST DECISION EVER!!!!!!! This pencil case is bigger than I expected and fits a lot more stuff, usually all my previous school years I would have to shove everything and it would break down due to the overload every year. This case fits more than I wanted so if you have a lot of supplies like I do, you shouldnt have a problem with the capacity. As for stability, this case felt very stable and seems like it will last me a few years ahead but I dont know about the elastics inside that holds the pens.the front pockets in the front cant fit anything, maybe a card or a student ID (which I think will fall out) but thats it, nothing can fit because its so stiff and not flexible. The inside is also the same, not flexible at all but I guess thats a good thing so it holds your stuff in place and wont fall out each time you open it. Overall, I am very pleased with this purchase. I read some reviews from the 1 star category and people said it smelt like chemicals? To me, it smells like leather or like a brand new car. There was not one scent of chemicals so I guess its just luck? So Id say, buy it but be warn about the small and maybe a minor defect like a rip inside as Ive seen another reviewer commented. Cant wait to use this for my 9th grade year!!! Class of 2020!!!!!
