Review on 🎨 YOUSHARES 180 Slots Pink PU Leather Pencil Case - Ideal Storage for Prismacolor, Crayola, Marco Pens, Gel Pens, and more! by Kristen Simpson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I can't believe how much can fit in this case!

So first let me say this is a tough business. It is high quality, has a 3 ring binder inside and VERY strong sides. I don't think it's bad but I was honestly surprised at how heavy it was when empty lol. Outwardly it looks like soft leather (mine is turquoise green). The zipper itself is good, but it's inconvenient to close. You need to close the zipper with two hands, you need to squeeze the two sides together and create tension (you need to pull the loose parts from the direction you close the zipper). When you open it, there is a diagonal mesh pocket on the inside of the front cover. I wasn't sure what to put in this piece at first (it has some elasticity so it stretches a bit), I found it would work for a coloring book or 160 page sketchbook, but was the best when I discovered this My 40 Neocolor II watercolor pencils fit in easily! Just note that the case is diagonal so anything you put in it when you lift the front cover to close the case ends up side down where the 3 ring binder is. I just make sure that when I lift the front cover and close it, I hold on to what I'm putting in my bag as I close it. Not a big deal, but worth mentioning. There are 3 leaves/pages in the three ring binder. Each side is VERY durable and offers tons of protection for your prized pens (or gel pens, markers, etc - large stretchy slots for markers or 2 crayons in each slot). Each side of this case has small loops that are perfect for 1 crayon per slot (27 slots on each side of the page - this breaks down into 27 pens per side, 54 pens per side, for a total of 3 pages of 162 plus the back cover can Holds 21 individual pencils, with 3 large loops - that's 183 separate slots! Plus extra loops and a storage pocket built into the front cover) - they easily fit extra fine pencils like regular size Koh-i-nor Tri-tones Prismacolor and larger than Polychromos and even Luminance! There are 21 single size hinges and 3 larger size hinges on the back (each larger hinge can hold different materials such as sandpaper). , 2 pencil extenders, 3 gel pens, an eraser or 2-3 crayons, etc.) I would highly recommend this case. I have a tin with 40 Neocolor II watercolor pencils, 120 Faber Castel Polychromos, some Koh-i-nor Tri-tones, some Caran D'ache Luminance and other supplies. I also just put on a soft eyeglass case I bought for $1 from Dollar Tree that contains water brush, sharpener, Posca pen and unscented mineral spirits (OMS are in the red glass in front, I put a small piece of sponge on the bottom an empty jar of face serum samples I had lying around), etc.

Pros
  • FINE MATERIAL - Made of PU synthetic leather. Not only does it look comfortable and feel like real leather, it is also easy to maintain and clean.
Cons
  • Uncertain
