CooLeathor A5 Blank Notebook - 5.8 x 8.25 Inches Hard Kraft Cover Sketch Book with Elastic Closure, 80 Sheets / 160 Pages, Thick 100gsm Paper, Great for Sketching, Writing and Journal Refill

i use this sketchbook all of the time i recommend it for lefty’s. spiral notebooks are my weakness so this is the best option! all the fuss on how it comes apart is incorrect. the pages on one side do not stick to the backing. in my opinion that helps it stay open and makes it more flexible.

my favorite sketchbook, i bring it everywhere and although i dont draw as much i use it every time i do. the size is convenient compared to my other sketchbooks, fits easily in my bag

This sketchbook is a great purchase for someone who sketches casually. The paper has a nice amount of texture and the size of each sheet lends well for both a single sketch on one page or multiple per page. I've never had an issue with pencils or erasers eating through the pages, as they are a bit thicker. The pencil lead I use does smear a bit, so I wouldn't necessarily use it for shading, as it would take more precision to execute properly. Even after using it for months and carrying it with me on a number of trips, the book is holding up fantastic. No pages have fallen out, and even the elastic band around the outside isn't stretched out (I use it to hold my pencil when I'm not drawing). I don't use this for finished pieces, but as a casual sketchbook, it works really well. This sketchbook is great for someone who is on a budget but likes the thicker, textured paper that many other sketchbooks don't offer.

I liked that this opened all the way so I could sketch in landscape over t pages if I wanted. I is made OK but I suspect pages will be falling out long before I fill it up. I do wish paper was a bit heavier as I like to add color sometimes to my sketches

Great journal for anything and everything. I am using it as my junk journal and it is perfect.

This is my go to sketchbook. I have several, each organized around a different fandom I enjoying drawing for. The covers allow for easy painting and customization to make a sketchbook truly your own, and the size makes portability great for sketching on location. While the paper isn’t meant for wet media, I still will use it — and I enjoy the slight warping of the paper it creates as it gives more character and texture to the drawings. The paper is nice enough to hold colors well in a variety of media (acrylic, water soluble ink, pencil) but not so nice you feel intimidated to have a less than perfect sketch in it. It’s my practice sketchbook when I’m learning new characters but also stands up well for polished scenes. The photos show my painted cover and a drawing done on location at Disneyland in mixed media. I love these to pieces!

We were impressed with the number of pages in each journal. What was disappointing was how each cover separated from the pages immediately upon opening. We’re using these to junk journal with the kids so we’ll see how durable the remainder of the binding is through our entries.

I love these notebooks! The paper is high quality and handles fountain pens very well. I haven't noticed any bleed through, even with wetter inks. I thoroughly enjoy writing in notebooks with open stitch bindings like this one. They're so easy to write in. Great value!

ok

Trotz einer Nacht auf dem Balkon (feuchte) immer noch im guten Zustand

Sirve si es solo para apuntar cosas. Para temas artísticos el papel es de mala calidad, y me extrañaría que tuviese el gramaje que anuncia

Great easy to open spreads, nice paper

the size is perfect and i use it to draw all the time. buy it pls
