I love the smoothness of yours. Wish my green one was that smooth. But, even though there’s more texture it’s still sooo soft and so much better than the pebbled ones!
Great review! I appreciate how thorough you were - and thanks for comparing to other brands - so helpful! So bummed I missed out on the Weeks pre-order. I really REALLY hope these leathers will be added to their regular line at some point.
Great video! I want to order one, but need to wait until the 29th when I get paid. Right now I have just enough to purchase the Kelley pocket on Monday when it comes out. I don't want to miss that! The honey color is great!
I understand. A lot of these colors are gone now, so you would probably be waiting on a restock anyway. I’m glad you are excited for the Kelley launch!
Oh wow! This came so quickly. Thank you for sharing. I too used pocket rings in the beginning, but switched to pocket TN for on the go. I wish they had these in pocket TN size.
Yay! I decrease the size of my A6 inserts for shops that don’t have PP, but I also use Simple and Trendy Co and Alibi Design on Etsy. There are a few others that also carry PP.
A VERY handsome planner. I can't help but wonder/wish they had a TN or folio in a size that would hold a pocket Moleskine or Leuchtturm in that vege tanned leather. Just, you know, for more options hehe
My lychee burnt orange luxe doesn’t smell chemically at all. It actually smells nice like leather does and I smell it all the time. 😊 Smells like my chic sparrow.
Of course you got smooth and I got textured! I wanted smooth soooo badly, but nope. Regardless I absolutely love it. At this price they can’t be beat, and I can buy 3 or 4 of these for the price of one Gillio 😂!
Can you clarify. You are using pocket plus in a Moterm pocket planner? And it looked to fit. I love the personal but it never worked for me, until I found personal wide. Love it, but it’s too big for my purse. Wondering if pocket plus inserts would do the trick.
Yes, I only use pocket plus inserts. Pocket is too small for me. This planner is perfect for the wider inserts, but may have overhang if you keep the 30mm rings. I’m not sure since I don’t prefer that ring size though.
@@ritawilson8015 A7 is a paper size that some notebook companies call Nano. If you own a Hobonichi, it‘s quarter the size of a Cousin (which is A5 size) or half of an Original or Techo (in A6).
I've been wondering if you would get a textured cover in your order, which I know is your preference. It does look like you got a certain amount of character though. Like you I considered the Caramel colour but decided it might be too dark, so went with Honey too. You commented on mine when I posted a photo into the group. Must say I wasn't sure what to expect with the new Full grain leather. Mine does have some texture on the outside cover but the most textured areas are the fly leaf, like yours and the inside front credit card slots area also like yours. It almost makes me wonder if the really textured parts of the leather have been used inside rather than on the outside because Moterm thought more people would like the lesser textured or smoother area of the leather on the outside areas of the cover. Just curious have you noticed anyone recieving a cover that's very textured on the outside?
I’ve only seen the Apricots be textured so far. But I’ve recently fallen in love with Honey from Portland Leather, which is also smooth, so I’m ultimately very happy with this cover!
Thanks for the quick response. It’s a bit too much for me this quarter but if you wind up hanging on to it for a while. I might be able to budget it in next quarter. But for your own return I hope you sell it soon. I love how flat it lies but in my aesthetic opinion I actually like your new one. Love your reviews.

Yes! I wish my Honey had texture, I am a sucker for texture but it is so much better than the previous offerings!

I think they are too popular for them not to!!
Yay! I’m glad that you got your honey in pocket! 😁
Me too, thank you!
Beautiful! I ordered the weeks cover in apricot and I think my next color will either be honey or caramel. I like the shade of the honey. TFS! ❤️🤗
The apricot is gorgeous in all the colors I’ve seen!!

They have this in a passport size.
I really think based on the popularity, they will expand to everything eventually.
@@samplans I really do hope so. They seem to be moving in the right direction. I’m really happy with their business model.
Oh Sam it’s gorgeous! Glad it finally arrived safely 😊
Thank you so much!
Where do you get your pocket plus inserts? I just ordered my first pocket size in the chestnut color!
Yay! I decrease the size of my A6 inserts for shops that don’t have PP, but I also use Simple and Trendy Co and Alibi Design on Etsy. There are a few others that also carry PP.
The chestnut is beautiful!! You are going to love it!🙌🏾
Cant wait for Moterm to come out with the B6 cover in this leather. TFS!
I really hope they bring all the covers in this soon!
Love the color!! I have the weeks cover in caramel and am waiting for the honey. I am thinking I will prefer the honey! can't wait to get it!!
It was difficult for me to choose between the two for sure. I’m excited to see what my next two look like!
This is stunning. I wish I could get my planner system set but I am all over the place.
I completely get it!
Ohhh I love a good Moterm 😍

I’m not sure that they offer that size, but it’s a great idea!

I’ve had some that had a strong chemical smell and some with less, but none have really smelled as good as you just described. 😅

You can use a butter knife in place of a flathead screwdriver. It isn't as good, but it works.
Well, I didn’t have one of those on my desk either. 🙈

@@samplans thank you. I thought that was what you did, just making sure.
@@samplans sorry one more question. What is a7? Is that what they (Moterm) use to call pocket?

@@samplans . I was considering the Apricot colour. I wondered how it would compare with a CS undyed.
I have a honey coming in this size. Can’t wait
I hope it’s exactly what you wanted!!
I have seen pictures of it and it’s beautiful. Fall perfection Yours is beautiful too
love it Sam!
Thanks!
It’s very pretty.
Thank you!
Miterm is slowly turning into the gillio company
But at a lower price. I also like that Moterm isn’t calf leather like Gillio.
@@samplans which leather is it?
It’s just cow leather, instead of baby cow leather.
Are you ordering them from Amazon?
No, these won’t make it to Amazon for awhile I presume. These are available on Ali Express.
Beautiful cover and great video! Also, I just sent you an email about your Gillio! 😬
Thank you! I will head over to my inbox. 🧡
How much are you selling the Jillio for?
$230. I paid $250 and used it two days.
Thanks for the quick response. It’s a bit too much for me this quarter but if you wind up hanging on to it for a while. I might be able to budget it in next quarter.

I completely understand. Gillios are pretty pricey. Thank you!
