I carry my wide every day in my backpack purse. In it, I currently have 3 Moleskine inserts : one is a Moleskine volant for my sketchbook, one is a Moleskine cahier for writing and the Moleskine weekly planner. I have 4 CS covers, so I alternate between them every other day or week. I love having everything in the same book!
Love my Classic Black Beauty Wide. I have large handwriting too and keep a MOTP, WOTP, Journal, and Commonplace Workbook and a few dashboards; all Cahier size. After 3 years, I have transitioned into a Pocket Plus as an EDC but I will forever keep my Raven. Thank you Jennifer! XO
Wide is my favorite size. I use it for French class. Plenty of room for my notes and leaves enough space in my bag for flash cards and supplies. I use Moleskine and Piccadilly books.
The large Moleskine, also known as Cahier, fit in a Chic Sparrow wide. They're 5"x 8.25", just slightly narrow compared to an A5. The Picadilly sizing should correspond to around 5" x 8.25" as this is a very standard size. I hope this helps.
I love WIDE - it is my favorite size! For all the reasons you said...I can't wait to get my Teahouse Chamomile (Patiently (not really) waiting- counting the days for when I'll get the shipped message ) and I have a collection of Sparrows - and other makers in WIDE> it is my love language! LOVE WIDE...I do carry big bags... I keep the Personal (but am trying the B6 Slim also in Chamomile- matchymatchy!) as a wallet. I journal exclusively in wide size. Happy Friday! YOU LOVE YOUR PROPORTIONS! That was my favorite line...
👏 Love to know you're loving your Wide size TNs! Jen does love her proportions! Hopefully you have, and have put to use, your Wide Chamomile by now! Thank you for watching and shopping with us! Britta, Customer Care
I reached that conclusion with A5’s they get too heavy to tote everyday to work. I love A6 for journaling but on the go I discovered the personal size or B6 slim😜 part of my process for One Book July is a take off from your series on the different size TN’s and make decisions which ones to let go to a home where it would be better used and more loved🌹
chicsparrow So happy you did this series for all your CS fans as who would be a better tester than Jennifer the TN maker❤️😝♥️ It answers lots if snoppy question📝 which is your favorite and what size do you like best and how many of your were made and tested by you🌺 It encouraged to look my collection and give more love to some and pass on those I am neglecting 😜
I love the wide, only have one, and use it as an art journal at home. I did take it once to an arts and craft social event and it was great for that type of situation.
I love the wide size too and wish it didn't weigh anything lol one can dream... but love moleskine notebooks. I wonder what size she will be reviewing next week?
Thanks so much for the review - This is one of a couple of sizes of CS that I don't have and haven't ordered yet . . . wondering what brands of inserts fit the wide. Loving your products, plan on using all that I have purchased and/or sharing them with family - daughters and grands (6), and a couple of dear, sweet friends.
Moleskine notebooks fit perfectly, you can get a 3 pack of Amazon inexpensively. I believe May Designs books fit as well these are the only ones I'm familiar with. 😊
You can purchase wide simple workbooks from us here - chicsparrow.com/collections/paper/products/simple-workbooks. If you want a more sturdy notebook, the Moleskine Pro Notebook 5X8.25 Fits in the Wide size well! We are happy to know you're enjoying your Chic Sparrow Traveler's Notebooks and sharing them with your loved ones. 🥰 - Britta, Customer Care.
When you talk about these sizes I would love you to show what size insert that goes in them. Did you say the moleskin fits in this? off the top of your head, do you have a TN that fits the field notes signature? I like your advise about choosing an insert before a cover so that ‘s why I’d like to see what inserts pair with which covers.

I was curious why you use the wide and not the A5? I am trying to decide on a size... It appears that the Moleskin book works in both sizes. I got a maverick A5 Deluxe and returned it because it was too thick and too heavy. I have been afraid to buy another large notebook but this video has inspired me. Thanks for your response in advance.

Hi there, I started using a moleskine for work. Love the notebook as it's a soft cover and the page size is perfect for tracking my notes on the go. I'm struggling because I work in sales and am constantly on the go. I work in nyc and need the flexibility to toss my notebook in my tote or backpack and run. I am concerned about weight. I suffer from chronic back pain and need to keep things light. I already carry an ipad in a keyboard cover and that is heavy. Any suggestions on which leather to choose that would make this cover the lightest? And how do you string a moleskine day book (its thick like the expanded) into a classic. (Thinking about keeping the weight down). FYI, I'm highly interested in either the Outlander or the waypoint. My current cs are: a5 hummingbird, b6slim chocolate cream, a5 odyssey Artemis folio Love them all.

I use my Wide as a recipe TN book. Love all the room and it’s perfect for writing down recipes.
♥️ love this idea

Thank you Jennifer! I’ve not considered a wide before this. I also have BIG handwriting, so I just may try one.
Love these videos😊! Thank you for sharing your thoughts, take care and have fun 💗🤗!
I agree.
I love the wide, only have one, and use it as an art journal at home. I did take it once to an arts and craft social event and it was great for that type of situation.
One of my Outlander wides is currently being used for a reading log!!!!!
That's a great use for your Wide!
LOVE my Wides!! I used it every single day for my work meeting notes. I'm currently in my CHV but I also have a Time Traveler and Angel Pemberly.
Oooh you have a pretty collection!
I love the wide size too and wish it didn't weigh anything lol one can dream... but love moleskine notebooks. I wonder what size she will be reviewing next week?
I am absolutely loving your opinions on TNs.
Thank you! 😁

Jibun Techo A5 slim fits as well as their idea books
@@shannonphillips8704 Good recommendation 👍
Also in addition to those mentioned, I love Poppin notebooks which work!
Would you consider, doing a video on how you archive your full inserts? Thank You!

I do use the A5 just not for the same purpose. Try a another leather the Maverick leather is our heavyweight champion.
I love the wide. 😍😍😍😍

What size notebooks fit the wide?
Hi Ruth, Here is a video that may help! ruclips.net/video/nwzzE9oF7NQ/видео.html
What IS the lightest leather you sell now that you mention it?!
Julia MacInnis Tea House
And to clarify, I meant weight, not color. Lol
The Teahouse is the lightest leather I have. It’s between 4 and 5 ounce leather.

My current cs are: a5 hummingbird, b6slim chocolate cream, a5 odyssey Artemis folio Love them all.
I would Recommend a folio instead of a TN that we are reducing quite a bit of extra weight.
So a wide is an A6?
No - a wide is a standard but wider.
