LIHITLAB Compact Pen Case, Water & Stain Repellent

I took a chance on this little case -I want to take my sketching/painting gear on a trip to Europe in as small and light weight a conveyance as possible. This is not an urban sketching trip and I doubt anyone else will be doing this so I can’t be lugging along and pulling out a lot of gear. I have a larger Lithitlab case that is my “vault” for all things extra I like to have with me locally. I love it but its format is too large for this need to order another. I want to be able to have something that can easily be put in my purse (to be determined). I can get everything I need in this small compact case EXCEPT my palette - even my smallest, dearest Whiskey Painter’s palette is too thick at 7/8” total (includes projections from mixing areas & thumb ring) to zip up the case. So my dilemma is, do I love this case enough to spend $50+ on a “pocket palette” (at 1/4” thick & I THINK will fit in vertically) to save size and weight & still have a palette? I have an old “freebie” make up bag that EVERYTHING fits in, including 2 Whiskey Painters palettes, but loaded it weighs almost 1# (more with a Moleskin sketchbook, BUT the sketchbook fits in it!). This case loaded would be just under 1/2# , is half the size, and in reality I would have more than I actually need. It would seem like an easy decision. I’m keeping it no matter - will probably bite the bullet and order yet another paint palette. Love how it feels in my hand. Very well made. Zippers are excellent. Lays flat. Will update with photo when resolved. Update: ordered the Pocket Palette and even smaller Demi Palette from Art Toolkit. The Pocket Palette is business card size. Both those small, but more than adequate paint palettes fit in this Smart Fit Lihit case. Everything fits beautifully and this fits in the crossbody bag I’m taking nicely. For travel sketching or just everyday to throw in a purse or backpack or just keep in the car - you can’t beat this.

I've used this compact pencil case for a few weeks now, and I think it's my new favorite for daily use/travel. Highly recommend :) Size-wise, my second picture shows this in my hand and I found that it is literally the same size from the bottom of my palm to the tip of my middle finger if I hold my hand flat on top (I have average womens hand size). Or around the same size as a "plus" size smartphone. It's honestly cute. And yet...behold how much you can fit. I show mine stuffed to what I think is the brim, but then I was able to fit in a couple more things so...?! On the left: Uni one P pen, 2 refills, tombow whiteout tape, faber castell refill lead, sunstar scissors, small lead sharpener and a thin washi tape. On the right: Sakura pigma brush pen, TWSBI eco x2 white and purple, Marvy lePen fine point markers x2 pink and green, faber castell and Kaweco sport lead holders. Zips up fine, no tugging. There are definitely enough pockets for organizing and keeping things separate. It's easy to use because when the zippers are open fully, it lays flat on its own. The netting on the left side feels durable enough, and the fabric used elsewhere feels durable and water repellent as well. The shiny portion on the bound side of the case feels like...not quite leather, not quite plastic? But closer to plastic? But it's soft and doesn't resist forming to the shape of the rest of the case. It's not bad, just interesting and I kind of like it now. It seems to soften up over time a bit as you handle the case? The colors options are the only thing left to be desired, but that's true of all of lihit lab pencil cases I think. But this black I got is nice and black, not charcoal or something. Considering more colors because I can think of a few other uses for these and my husband has expressed interest. (P.S. makes a great travel electronics cord case and fits pen sized makeup brushes~)

I love this! It's mighty compact, carrying only around 10-11 pens and still be able to zip up easily. I use only one side carrying around 5 pens for work.You can put 5 on the other side if you don't want to use the mesh for a pocket book and even fit a small eraser or correction tape in the second mesh pocket. I use this for work and carry around 4 highlighters, a black gel pen and a Sharpie when I need to mark down orders or take a note. Be mindful of how thick the items might be when putting it in this case cause it reduces the amount of other items you can put in. I use the mesh side to hold some id cards, coupons or whatever and the second pocket to hold an eraser. It is slim enough to fit into a purse or bag pack without taking up a lot of space. Overall this is a great case, it feels nice, it's well made and looks nice too. I recommend this if you don't want a big case and only use under 10 or so pens, pencils, markers or what have you.

Love this case. I've already purchased 2 of them! The first one I lost, the second one my son liked and I gave to him. I guess I'm going to be purchasing a third soon lol. Highly recommend.!

I absolutely LOVE this case! It doesn’t take too much space in my bag, yet it holds 5-6 pens and pencils, erasers, scissors, LED.. Probably a lot more. But this has been keeping me sane throughout the school year, and it’s such an investment! I’ve had it for 6-7 months and there’s not a single wear or tear that I’ve noticed. The black color is also quite beautiful and nothing inside has ever been damaged.

Durable material and waterproof with smooth zipper.

It's amazing but it was a little torn since I had to go out I could replace it otherwise go for it . This is the best you can get. For stationary lovers this is one of the ' must have items '

My dear beautiful pencil case, I love the compact size and the beautiful green colour. Thank you lihit lab, I love you.

Los colores de tejido que utiliza esta marca son muy bonitos. Es un estuche pequeño, ideal para llevar en un bolso. Al abrirlo tiene dos zonas para organizar materiales, son estrechas pero lo suficiente largas para poner bolis, caben 5 bolis perfectamente en cada lado, yo he puesto los vintage de zebra.
