    I love them! They are one of the best companies out there. I think their wallet inset was designed to fit the 4-elastic fauxdori as it's wider than the original traveler's company notebook.

    Have you tried slipping the back cover of an insert into one of the vertical pockets? I use my Raymay zipper cover as a wallet and I slip a TN regular size insert into it that way. Works great and I love it! Nice buy 😃

      Sylvia From Wright Your Life Yes. It's JUST too small to slip in a TN refill without some squashing or trimming, which my perfectionist nature can't abide! But I don't care because it's an excellent, sexy wallet! 😉

    I believe their travelers notebooks are a bit larger - and yes.. they are gorgeous

    Hi, I just stumbled up here! Thanks so much for this video. I would like to ask you something. Is it possible to insert in the pocket on the right one traveler's notebook insert? Thank you!

      You'd have to cut down the insert cover a little bit.

    Before purchasing any item from Galen Leather please make sure you are aware of the shipping costs. Despite my invoice including the cost of shipping, the delivery company UPS requested a further £30 English pounds before I was allowed my parcel. Make sure you make enquiries before purchasing! I was advised by Yusuf that this is mentioned on their website. Clearly I had missed that section. I advise you to be careful. The product I purchased is lovely. It is a shame that it has been ruined for me paying a lot more money than expected. I will make it my mission to ensure that everyone is aware on all social platforms. I know I can’t be the first to suffer from this!

      Thanks for the warning! Yes, their website does mention it. It's pretty common for craftspeople and small businesses to not cover duties/import costs on the items they ship overseas. But I'm sorry you weren't ready for it!

    Hi! Been thinking about using this as a wallet, so very glad to find your video. Are you still using it as a wallet? What was your experience like in the end?

    • @LeilaAMMartin

      Hi! I used it as a wallet for a long time, but eventually the leather stretched just enough that cards started to slip out of the top. If it was a zip-around I'd still be using it as a wallet but alas.

    Alas I have yet to find a reviewer who has shown how the weeks looks closed inside this cover. For a cover that doesn't include some sort or closure, I'd appreciate to know whether or not it would bulge with JUST the weeks inside it. I'm sure I am not the only one who wonders the same thing. I appreciate your honest review of this cover don't get me wrong! I am just a little frustrated at my options for a weeks cover at the moment.

      Check out this video from MyLifeMits. She puts a weeks inside of this insert. It fits, but I looks to me there is some slight over-fit. ua-cam.com/video/1u5zaA7CfYE/v-deo.html

    Could you tell me if that cover feels like suede, it looks like it but baring waiting for 5 weeks Id love to know now. Thanks.

    • @LeilaAMMartin
      @LeilaAMMartin  6 років тому

      Lauren Gallagher the cover is super soft but if you're asking if it feels like the specific texture of actual suede, I'd say not really. It feels like soft, high-quality leather but it doesn't have the suede texture.

    • @laurengallagher9733
      @laurengallagher9733 6 років тому

      Thanks, it looks so suede ish like. I have the purple zip cover and its shiny where this one isnt so I was hoping it would be a more tactile experience. Love how you were petting it in the video.

    • @LeilaAMMartin
      @LeilaAMMartin  6 років тому

      Lauren Gallagher it's plenty tactile! Feels great in the hand. But suede has a super-specific texture and hand feel, kind of like rubbing fine velvet against the grain, and this leather is softer and smoother than that.
